Where is the manual unlock code for the old A6 audio system?
2 Answers
The manual unlock code for the old A6 audio system is located in the storage compartment on the right side. Solution for forgetting the password: Turn on the radio, the display should show "SAFE". Simultaneously press the "AM/FM" and "SCAN" buttons, and release when "1000" appears on the display. Do not hold these buttons for too long or press them twice, otherwise "1000" will be entered as the password. Use the first four tuning preset buttons (4) to input the password provided by the owner. Use the "1" button to input the thousands digit, the "2" button to input the hundreds digit, pressing the corresponding number of times, and so on. The display should show the entered digits. After correctly entering the password, simultaneously press the "AM/FM" and "SCAN" buttons until "SAFE" appears. Release both the "AM/FM" and "SAFE" buttons, and after a short while, the display should show the radio frequency, indicating that the audio system is unlocked and can function normally. Function: Today's car audio systems have reached high standards in terms of sound quality, operation, and vibration resistance, capable of handling the bumps on rough roads while ensuring stable performance and perfect sound quality.
When I used to play with the old A6, I was often troubled by the audio system lock. This password is usually hidden in three places: First, check the manual folder that came with your car—there might be a small card with a four-digit code inside the black leather holder. If you can't find it there, lift the trunk mat and look inside the spare tire well for a palm-sized white sticker. It should have a 14-digit serial number starting with "AUZ," which you'll need to enter on Audi's official website to retrieve the password. If all else fails, take your vehicle registration to the dealership and have them connect to the German server to look it up—just remember to take a photo of the last eight digits of your VIN beforehand. When the system is locked, don’t randomly try codes—entering the wrong password three times will lock the system for an hour.
