How to replace central console - MMI control, handbrake button on Audi A6 (C6 4F)

[@guccimuffin727]

Here in 2023 this video just helped me fix my A6. Thank you so much

[@wawayltd]

Back to the future 😁 You're welcome 👍

[@tcooperb]

With the aid of your super video, I was able to replace the plastic (fake metal) trim around the gear shift on my 2010 A6. Although you were addressing another situation, your pictures and audio clearly showed me how to replace that nasty trim piece. During a below-zero stretch of 3 days, the metallic-looking finish on the trim piece distorted and bubbled up. Looked very bad. Dealer said it would be about $1,000 to tear into the console, find that trim and replace it. "BS"!. I ordered the piece from Audi for $60 and with your video as a guide, installed it myself... took 30 minutes. Thanks, man. GREAT video.

I just had to comment on how you are such an awesome Dad ! Great Patience with your little boy. Makes me smile having raised 9 children myself, been there, done that over and over. Never know If I lost the part or if little hands made off with it. :) Great Job on your videos. Has helped me work on my sons A6 more then once. Thank you.

[@rickbloemhard1364]

Thanks for this great, easy to understand, and complete video. I found that two “side pull” bicycle spokes with spoke nipples and washers or knobs work great for pulling the rear air vent. Saves a bit of money. It takes a surprising amount of force to pull the vent out. I spilled half a cup of coffee all over the MMI buttons - seemed okay for a bit, then everything flashed bright, the display turned off and the buttons stopped working. Following these instructions I managed to take things apart, then I washed the plastic and metal parts, and cleaned the circuit board with alcohol and Qtips. I used an anti static bag (from a PC motherboard) to keep the electronics safe. I put it all back together and everything worked fine! DIY... always better!

[@wawayltd]

Thanks Rick 👍 Glad if it helps.

Only he has brake warning message up and to rule out the module as coffee damaged it, we will replace it. Problem solving. They arent coded to one another are they. The hand brake module to the car?

[@DiscoAdventures]

This is a fantastic video, it's really helped me, the only thing I would say is when removing the back piece, after taking out the vents, there are two clips on either side which you didn't mention, which are a bastard to release, I ended up snapping both, other than that I can't thank you enough for this guide.

[@wawayltd]

Thank you! :) And sorry for not mentioning the clips. Sometimes those clips can vary, the angle of catch varies - some of them can be just pulled out, some have to be pressed with screwdriver. It can vary from model to model.. But I'm glad that my videos help people :) Thank you!

Hi, is the parking brake switch an actual electrical component or just a mechanical lever? I have a parking brake malfunction after a spill and the mechanic is advising replacing the parking brake module which rests in the boot which doesn't make sense so I want to start with this

[@wawayltd]

It's an electric switch. It also has a light to see when it's active. I'm not professional, so I don't know where the actual parking brake controller is. If the switch is cheap to buy, i think it would be worth to try to replace the switch first and see if it helps.

You can always try cleaning it before you buy, but in my experience with these buttons, like this parking brake switch, like window regulator buttons - when they go bad they just need to be replaced.

I don't have experience with putting new unit, I had to replace parking brake button, so decided to make such video.

gavan corry Car gives you warning light, but once you put handbrake on and off few times - light goes off. Yes, I think it's much better to do it while car is on a flat surface, not on a steep hill ;) For extra safety - put it in a gear or "P" if it's automatic. Don't remember how long it took me (together with filming and naughty little hooligan it takes longer), I don't think it should take too long.

Hey man, I have a 2008 Audi A6 Quattro S line. My screen goes off 5 seconds after showing the welcome anytime I turn it on. Can you please tell me what might be the problem? I have change the screen, mmi control module, amp, multimedia interface but it still has that problem

[@wawayltd]

If by MMI control module you mean these buttons that are shown in the video, then it might not help.. As far as I remember actual MMI unit that processes all is located somewhere behind glovebox. Unfortunately, I'm nowhere near to be professional to help you with that, also I don't have that car anymore :(

Good afternoon! Can you help me? At me on audi a6 c6 4f the screen and all multimedia system has ceased to work, has checked up all safety locks, all whole. Power to all units is suitable, the battery is not discharged, the generator gives charging. What can be, where to look?

[@wawayltd]

Габриэль Монтгомери У меня однажды МMI погасла после того, как я на неё вылил стакан колы. Разобрал, почистил и все заработало. Но если проблема не в этом, то не знаю чем помочь. Насколько мне известно, там ещё должен быть какой-то контрольный модуль за бардачком, но я так далеко не разбирался. Могу только порекомендовать обратиться к специалисту (коим я не являюсь ;) ), просканировать VAG-COMом и разобраться, что ему там не нравится.

[@wawayltd]

Thank you, that A6 was 2005.. but it has been almost 3 years since it's gone..

Can you not do this without removing the arm rest? ?

[@wawayltd]

I don't have that car anymore. As far as I remember, armrest needs to be removed.

I changed mmi and parking brake but when I put on and off both times makes some noise ? And when I start to drive parking brake doesn't go off automatically as before , could you help me please why is it like that ?? Many Thanks

[@wawayltd]

Kazim Ahmed Normally it does make some noise when operating. If noise is really horrible and you are worried, then you can show it to specialist, let him go test it. Regarding automatic release - are you wearing your seatbelt? Because it only works when seatbelt is on.

WheelsAndMotors it makes little bit noise not too much and no I didn't wear seatbelt when I tried I'll try with seat belt thanks a lot for help
