The memory card of the original dash cam in the Audi A6 is located on the side or underneath. Look carefully and you should be able to find it. Introduction to Dash Cams: A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire driving process in video and audio, providing evidence in case of traffic accidents. Dash Cam Installation Methods: Dash cams are mainly divided into two categories: portable dash cams and aftermarket integrated DVD dash cams. Portable dash cams can be further categorized into rearview mirror dash cams and data dash cams. These types of dash cams are characterized by good concealment, easy installation, detachability, low cost, and simple operation. On the other hand, aftermarket integrated DVD dash cams are usually vehicle-specific and can be divided into front-installed and rear-installed types. Installing these dash cams is more costly and challenging, but they maintain the aesthetic appeal of the car interior. Additionally, some luxury models come with pre-installed dash cams from the factory.
I've been driving an Audi A6 for several years, and the location of the OEM dashcam's memory card is actually quite obvious. It's usually around the interior rearview mirror, specifically on the side or top of the mirror base, where there's a small memory card slot cover that can be opened with a gentle push. This design is common in Audi's C7 or C8 models, with the slot positioned near the windshield for easy card insertion and removal. Make sure to use a reliable quality microSD card, such as a 32GB high-speed SanDisk card. The OEM supports up to 128GB, so avoid using no-name brands as they may cause recording loss. Sometimes the card slot cover may get stuck or age, making it difficult to open. Don't force it open to avoid damaging the device—it's best to have it handled at an Audi dealership. Additionally, regularly check the health of the card to prevent it from being full and failing to record, which could compromise driving safety. I usually clear the data every three months to ensure the dashcam works stably and reliably.
