Audi A6 trunk lid won't open solutions: 1. Press and hold the "car logo" button in the center of the remote key for 3 seconds to unlock it, but it won't pop open by itself, the owner needs to gently lift the lid; 2. There is a keyhole above the license plate, insert the key and turn it to unlock the trunk, then the lid can be lifted. The Audi A6 is a luxury car produced by Audi, available in both sedan and station wagon models, with dimensions of 5.012 meters in length, 1.855 meters in width, and 1.485 meters in height, and a wheelbase of 2.945 meters. In terms of exterior design, the Audi A6 features a previously divided radiator and intake grille on the front fascia that has been transformed into a complete trapezoidal grille.
I've been in the auto repair business for over 20 years, and the issue of the Audi A6 trunk not opening is all too common—it's usually caused by electronic lock or mechanical failures. The first step is to check the key battery; Audi remotes drain power quickly, and if it's dead, the signal won't transmit—try replacing it with a CR2032 battery. If that doesn't work, sit in the driver's seat and look for the trunk release button; most models have it near the door panel or center console. Inside the trunk, there's an emergency manual release handle—lift the cover panel and reach inside to pull the safety latch. If it's still stuck, the lock might be jammed or the linkage broken—apply gentle pressure to push the lid and help it release, but avoid forcing it open to prevent body damage. A blown fuse in the relevant circuit of the fuse box can also cause failure—inspect and replace it if needed. If you can't resolve it, drive to the dealership for diagnosis and repair. Regularly spraying the lock with WD-40 lubricant can prevent future issues.
