A7 3.0TDI quattro EZ07/2011 Yesterday morning at – 13 degrees ( at night max -16 degrees ) my A7 3.0TDI started miserable. Before the programmed preheating had already died after a few minutes. Further attempts to turn on the preheating failed – then the preheating was dead (workshop symbol in the display) . After another start was then everything that has to do with MMI (Navi, radio etc.) also dead . Follow : 1.5 days workshop stay. Today I was able to pick up my A7 again – S Tandheizung runs again. MMI goes again ( “Only reset necessary”. Everything free of charge and with an adventurous explanation: I would have fuelled wrong fuel – JET Diesel and AUDI now expressly recommends to me the superteure ARAL Ultimate ! As an engine engineer I know very well the differences in diesel qualities incl. winter diesel. However, it is unknown to me that any German car company develops vehicles that do not comply with the valid diesel fuel standard DIN EN590 mmt. Up to -20 degrees this winter diesel must always fnunctionate, otherwise we would have had to stop the last days 60% of our German vehicles tomorrow…. After this Audi speech – the protocols of the workshop with the AUDI plant were shown to me – I even have to worry about my engine after a refuelling at JET ????? Are there similar statements on the part of Audi that you have to refuel special fuels? Are other lantern parkers with new A6 / A6 also missing? Here is the usual description for winter diesel: The filterability limit (useability) of the diesel fuel is regulated by the CFPP value depending on the season in the EN 590 – the winter diesel from mid-November to the end of February must achieve a CFPP value of at least ?20 °C. Many oil companies typically lower the CFPP value to ?22 to even -33 °C in the winter months.

dear community, configure me just for short term order ‘n S7, interior equipment completely black. Search a metallic shade from the individual area. What do you think of Royal Grey Metallic (allegedly the same as Mini) or Delfuego grey metallic ? Greetings from the North Andreas

Hello, At 120000km a wheel bearing at the rear left side has become loud. Are the wheel bearings at the front side the same? In my opinion, changing each axle would be advisable or does it have a different opinion or view?!? Have you picked this out: https://www.lott.de/…/skf-rad bearing set-ww1844231?… Or should I switch to original? Please give us a short info Your regards:

Good day, On Friday the 18.10.2024 I picked up my beautiful new Audi A7. Unfortunately we noticed a few things on the vehicle the next day and you hear a light whistle or frequency, when you start the engine and with the gas plays the air conditioning I have already switched off. The noise is still there. Then I still noticed in the engine room based on the photo that there is white stuff on this cable and in the area you hear funny sounds l ochtes cracken knarzen direction catalyst or is that normal . Vllt you have a hunch have already contacted the car dealership but vllt you have some infos for me the car has just 74,000 km down. Lg Gramos Shala

I will probably separate myself from my Q7 and look for an adequate replacement for the next 24 months (until the new Quh is there). To choose from are A6 or A7. Both are configured and could be ordered. Now, however, the question arises for me whether the A7 does not get a facelift soon. From the age, according to experience A6, A4 the 3 years would fit and I want to prevent getting a vehicle which is already overtaken a few weeks later. So in the A6 rather unlikely the A7 But I still like it better, there is no significant difference from the price. What do you mean? Has anyone heard anything yet? Greetings Siegcon
