How I reset service light on 2006 a6, 3.2 engine
This should be the procedure for your model!
Press and hold spanner button - then switch on the ignition. One of the following messages appears in the display
"SERVICE IN ____ MILES" or "SERVICE!".
Press the reset button - until either of the following messages appears in the display:
"SERVICE IN ____ MILES ___DAYS" or "SERVICE!".
after about 5 seconds the display should go back!
White smoke tail pipe wont gasket
You have a "blown head gasket" This means that the gasket seal between the cylinder head and the cylinder block has failed. Coolant is getting into the combustion chamber (cylinder) and being heated into steam.. If you carefully smell the exhaust FROM A DISTANCE, don't stick your nose in the tail pipe, you will detect a sweetness to the steam from the glycol in the coolant. Now you need to either get a quote to have it done, or research how to do it yourself. If you are NOT a fair to decent mechanic, then don't try doing yourself.
If you pull the spark plugs you can narrow down the area where it's failed. The CLEAN plug is where it is.

2009 Audi A6 3.2. Crank but no start OBD2 shows misfire on cylinder 5.
Erasing the codes doesn't fix the problem. You will need to find out what is causing the misfire. What EXACTLY is it doing when you crank it? Does nothing? Just turns really slowly? Turns at regular speed and nothing else? Turns, tries but won't idle? Comment below and I'll see what help I can give you.
