Central locking system
You should still be able to lock your car with the key, remember how we use to do it the old way..... with the key :-D. The central lock solenoid is located in the door itself, behind the door trim. Replace the offending solenoid with a new or used one. And once again you can lock/unlock the car with the remote

97 a6Q turns over but no spark is present
If this is a v 6, they are equipped with three sensors. One for each of the cams and one on the crank shaft. These sensors must be tatally in syc. or the computor will turn off the power to the injectors and the power to the plugs. This occurs when the timing belt jumps a cog or two.

Clutch pedal goes to the floor on A6 2.8 P 1997
It's a hydraulic system on the Audi. Using a master cylinder (nearer pedal and firewall) and a slave cylinder (at clutch release bearing itself, or on side of tranny. Owner's manual should give location for a reservoir to check. Similar but smaller than brake master cylinder reservoir if that helps. The system uses brake fluid, and you either have a leak, a lack, or a loss of this fluid, and/or pressure to the clutch. Sounds like you need qualified service, these systems need REAL diagnosis before you start buying parts. ALso can be hard to bleed completely free of air after parts are installed.

Audi Radio Code
Your best bet is to call a dealer. There's no reason why the service department can't give you this information for free. Make sure you write it down ( I tend to email myself these things) and keep it in the car. If you have the manual, write in there as well. You'll need it for how to enter the code.
Best,

Most of the OEM headunits and changers are made by common radio manufacturers. Visit

Starting
Hi...
Yes.
But the first step is check the BATTERY condition..
See if is full charged..
because is the common simptoms of that problem.
If yes with a TEST light you can check the 12v at the starter motor., when other person. try to start.
If there a signal. the more probable is the starter bad.
If not. check all the fuses and connection at the starter and relay. check the NUETRO SAFETTLY SWITCH.
or CLUTCH swithc. for proper funtion.
OK.. I hope this information work for your problem.

Gearbox auto 4wheel drive
Obtain a fault code from the obd plug, go from there. If there are no strange noises then control unit is faulty. Stupid thing- is the fluid level ok?

Two switches on the radiator. The one controlling normal running is scrap-replace both-front of the car must come off. Get an auto electrician to check wiring before assembly.

03 a6 quatro that started slipping,fixed a broke line,now leaking oil out hole in the bell housing below torque converter and had a code for torque switch stuck off...
what was slipping , not told clutch. ? no M/t box here.
brakes dead? no.
automatic with TC , sure.
so fluid leaks there are 1 of 3 kinds !
engine oil (shades of brown)??
ATF red fluid/????
or green antifreeze leaking from say rear freeze/core plug or from intake manifold leaks. coolant or water core heator core leaks
or any water hoses leak. I run Prestone and is GREEN today.
asking the blind to find leaks is OVERTHETOP.
TCC errors, most are bad solenoid inside the box.
TC clutch lockup sol.
i bet you mean the A/T box slips in all gears?, PRNDL R, D and L>
or only higher gears in drive slips, called FLARE or False neutrals
causes are huge. for slip
20 year old box.
no miles told on Odometer. dash
250,000 miles>?
fluid too low sure is if leaking out. (TC seals or pump seals)
fluid smells burnt or looks like tar on tip of A/t dipstick
a/T Filter clogged.
25 seals inside box leak inside and add up to PUMP overload.
bad pump a/t or its regulator
bad clutch packs in the box or its slave servo bad.
bad shift solenoids , or TCM bad.
shifter linkage bad, or cable if is that. or not adjusted by the book
some cars only reverse works others, only reverse fails
huge list of failures symptoms on any A/t box. not told you.
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.
