Audi A6 key cannot long-press to raise or lower the windows solution: 1. Set the closing function to open in the MMI, 2. Turn on the ignition, raise all windows to the top, then pull up each window's switch once (i.e., window initialization), this way you can use the remote key to operate the car's windows. To close, long-press the lock button for 3 seconds; to open, long-press the unlock button for 3 seconds. Take the Audi A6 (imported) 2021 Avant Pioneer 40TFSI Luxury Dynamic model as an example: it is a mid-to-large-sized car launched by Audi (imported), with a length, width, and height of 4951mm, 1886mm, and 1483mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2925mm, equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
When I used to drive an Audi A6, I encountered the issue where the windows wouldn't roll up/down by long-pressing the key. This is likely a setting glitch or minor malfunction. You can first try reinitializing the window controls: start the car, then press and hold the window button for a few seconds - sometimes this resets the system back to normal. If that doesn't work, check if the key battery is dead; low power can cause unstable signals - just replace it with a new one. Or the buttons might be too dirty - try cleaning them with alcohol swabs. The A6's electronic systems are quite sophisticated, and outdated software could also cause bugs - get the error codes scanned at the dealership ASAP. Before functionality is restored, remember to manually close windows when exiting the vehicle to prevent rainwater entry and avoid additional hassle/risk. Develop a routine to check keys and vehicle settings every six months to prevent such minor issues.
