NEED TO HEAR THE WHISLE TO LET U KNOW IF IT IS OK OR THERE IS A PROBLEM..A VIDEO WOULD HELP A LOT..

Unfortunately, you cannot. Before replacement you needed to check gauge by grounding wire to block to see if gauge pegs, if the gauge does not move problem is in the gauge. I have worked on so many different vehicles, so my thought might be on a non digital type gauge not a digital. If digital gauge disregard this test.

Which one front or back.

You want to use the battery in the engine compartment, the one the alternator charges. I just connect the batteries directly pole to pole. When you rev up the engine the alternator will increase the output going into your battery.

take it to an accredited auto electrician. Most will say use a multimeter . This you can do if you place the leads across the battery terminals and speed up the engine . you will see an increase from12 volts to should be 14.5volts . . However that is not telling you what current is being produced by the regulator or even if the volts is ac or dc from a bad rectifier.

did you check fuses ?

Under passenger front carpet, under the MDF panel.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEED AN UPDATE. IF YOU GOOGLE 2006 AUDI MMI UPDATE IT WILL WALK YOU THROUGH IT.

Search 2004 A8 phone. You'll find a few threads. Depending on what the problem is, you might find a solution. I spent 6 months trying to get the bluetooth puck to work and it turned out to be a few computer codes that needed to be changed.

You need a new alternator and check your fuel sencer
