The most Lemon Audi A6 Avant strikes again

[gupsterg]

So fellow members... just as I thought thinks were getting better...... the most lemon Audi A6 in forum history strikes again!

I went to Audi today to pickup the rest of the parts to do the injector swap... I heard water gushing forward and back in car as I stopped and moved off at junctions...

It had been doing this for a few days... but it has been raining for days...

I had heard this sound before in my ownership.... I thought it can't be like the last 2 -3 times that there is water under the carpet again!!!

But this is Zesty the A6... the most lemon of A6's... it is possible!

So now after all I have been through with this car in the past year or so I must start stripping the interior again...

I can not ever recommend one again even though I did today... I have tried so much with this car... I have blown £5K+...

Demorialised... saddened... angered... ashamed... I must have been so disillusional to buy/keep trying with this car...

Has it got a sunroof Gup?

[gupsterg]

Yep... drains seem clear... will have to double check... glass seals fine when I checked last....

Many water leak problems with sunroof in cars.

The drains might seem clear but what can happen is the drain pipes can come detached. Very, very common in Range Rover and Land Rover cars.

The drain pipes are run down the A pillars normally, if there is a problem with these you can guess where the water ends up. Might also be a sealing problem with sunroof gutter, but this would probably end up with water in the head lining.

It might be another thing to look into if the other drains are OK.

Really sorry to here more bad news from you just when things are looking brighter. Everyone who knows you on this forum is going to try to help you through all of this.

Cant help say it- but- 'the way you moved that finger ' '''OH MY !!'.

LEAVE THE CARPETS UP . dry everything out with a heater . Wait for a dry day and then go for a drive and observe. Wait for a rainy day (wont have to wait so long these days ) and drive around .
You MUST see where the water is getting in then .

Crikey Gup! You're having no luck at all. Keep your chin up, my friend - once you've sorted your injectors and fixed your leak, you will have a cracking car!

Keep smiling!!
