FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT REGISTER THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL, CAUSING THE DRIVER TO THINK MORE FUEL IS IN THE TANK WHEN, IN REALITY, THE TANK IS EMPTY. PROBLEM WAS REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP. DEALER STATED THAT THE UNIT IS BEING REDESIGNED AND THAT A NEW UNIT WOULD BE INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

1999 AUDI A6- OMAHA, NE
ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE INTERIOR, IS A HIGH GLOSS POLISHED WOOD GRAIN PANEL. THE PANEL IS ANGLED SUCH THAT WHEN THE SUNLIGHT HITS IT FROM THE RIGHT REAR, IT REFLECTS A BLINDING AND VERY DISTRACTING GLARE THAT INTERFERES WITH THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO CONCENTRATE ON THE ROAD. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND AUDI USA BUT NEITHER ARE WILLING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

1999 AUDI A6- THOUSAND OAKS, CA
THIS, AND APPARENTLY MOST, AUDI A6 VEHICLES DO NOT HAVE FUNCTIONING GAS GUAGES. AS A RESULT THE DRIVER DOES NOT KNOW WHEN THE VEHICLE WILL RUN OUT OF GAS. I HAVE RUN THIS VEHICLE OUT OF GAS 5 TIME SINCE THE PROBLEM BEGAN, THE LAST AT 65 MPH IN THE FAST LANE OF CA 101 FREEWAY. THE SUDDEN VEHICLE SLOWDOWN ALMOST CAUSED A MULTI-CAR, HIGH SPEED ACCIDENT. AUDI HAS REPEATEDLY ATTEMPTED TO FIX THE PROBLEM BUT AFTER 8 MONTHS, REPORT THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX AVAILABLE. *AK
