Alternator OEM Audi or OEM Volkswagen

It’s your alternator not the battery, the coding of the battery is important, but will only extend the life battery will not cause it to be dead in three days

Drove it for a day and the alternator crapped out. Installed a new one asap.

My 19 c8 3.0 had the same exact issue within 4 months of buying it last year. And the car died on me mid fwy in dtla. Take it in to ur nearby dealer theres an open recall on the alternator i believe.

Might be a coincidence, but those lights all came on about a month before the Electical System: Malfunction light came on in my 2021 S6. They replaced my battery and alternator.

Rs6 definitely has an alternator issue. I’m currently at 25k on oem alternator.

It went out at 40,000 miles and was replaced without issue by the dealer which provided an A6 as a loaner for the week it took to replace the alternator. I still love the car and would not move to Mercedes

My vehicle had this issue and they said it was because there was a bad batch of batteries in some of the models which was causing the alternator to fail. I had several issues with this vehicle around 50k miles such as failed alternator which was replaced because of the warranty but this should be a recall!!! Very dangerous and unreliable.

I've just got this issue in my Q8 in UK. I kept telling my service centre about the alternator but they said no recall. Going to give them an angry call tomorrow since car dead. Luckily have extended warranty, rac quote is \u00a33K!

yap mine was gone in less than 30K KM but audi japan replaced it for free.... it sucks... car just died

Spent 300 on an alternator to get the whole car apart just to find out it was the wrong one
