That is the same as a check engine light. Look in your owners manual. I would check all fluid levels before you go on any journeys. 

On the A6 your filter is located inside a plastic box on the passenger side of the engine compartment(USA). Yes you can replace it, simply remove the top part of the box, withfraw the old filter and reinstall the new one.

If this is an interference type engine then yeas there is a real chance you could have major internal damage, such as a piston hitting a valve. If it is not an interference engine then there should be know issue other then a new belt, tensioner and water pump.
I hope this may have helped you,

I assume you meant 2.8L?

At idle - 1-2.5 bar (14-36 psi)
3000 Rpm - 3-5 bar (44-73 psi)

Use a ball-joint press to get it off.

This symbol means that the brake pads are worn out and need replacing..It will have nothing to do with the shock absorber leak.

If the Battery is GOOD, the Alternator should produce a near constant of 13 to 13.4 volts at the Battery at all engine speeds. Your fluctuations recorded [if the multimeter is good] would indicate an uncontrolled open circuit from the Alternator, due to Regulator Failure, and a JUNK Alternator. Confirm by taking it to a reputable Accessory Store, where they will Bench Test it for FREE.

I assume this is an aftermarket radio and you don't know the connections?

Normally, the red is + and the black -. A yellow wire usually is a feed to a power amp to turn it on when the radio goes on.

On the speaker side, you should have paired up wires like:
Yellow solid and yellow w/black stripe
Brown solid and brown with black stripe
Green soild and green with black stripe... you get the idea. The solid color wire is the positive and the balck striped match is the negative.
There should be 8 speaker wires altogether to give you L/R fron and L/R rear.

If you don't know which terminal is positive and negative on your speakers, try this;
Take a 1-1/2 volt AA battery and connect it to a speaker momentarily ( I do mean momentarily or you'll blow it). If the speaker cone moves out away from the magnet then the terminals match the polarity of the battery - and +.
If the cone moves towards the magnet the polarity is reversed. It is important you connect the speaker phasing (polarity) correctly other wise you will get poor bass output.
Whatever you do, do not ground any speaker wires!!!!

Audi doesn't have a low side AC port, the system must be serviced through the high side port, this requires a special power charging machine that you guessed it, is dealer only, they are the only car company that does this. this info comes from the Audi factory service manual for your car.
Here is a work around I found, I leave it up to u to decide if you want to risk damaging the compressor.
First your going to have to re-thread the a/c fitting for the compressor (metric to english) to accept a standard english low side connection. The trick to servicing it through the compressor is to only charge about .1 to .2 pounds of refrigerant at a time (5 minute intervals in between). You have to take it slow or else you'll lock up the compressor and be "up sh*t's creek

YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM HAS LOCKED YOU OUT, USE THE KEY AND LOCK AND UNLOCK DRIVERS DOOR, IF THIS DOESN'T RESET THE SECURITY SYSTEM THEN U WILL NEED TO HAVE THE SYSTEM TESTED WITH A SPECIAL DEALER ONLY SCAN TOOL.

Hello, You need to Be Sure Of Your Connections FIRST, Make sure Ground is Good Andthen, Go To Starter. A Test Light Is Needed To Check for Ignition Trigger POWER is Avalable @ Starters Small Terminal,If It Is its Simply The Starter that needs Replaced, If Not,we need to Backtrack to Be SURE of ALL Battery Connections and Neutral Saftey Curciut is In Tact.After This is Determined & or Corrected The Charging System Should Be Checked ,In Case This ALTERNATOR is the reason The Battery Went Dead At First. Feel FREE to Reply with Questions.

I am very unclear on the trouble light discription, u say it has a tree in it?? is this what you eant?

Do you have memory seats as well? If so follow these steps I am going to refer to the keys as A and B as you have 2 of them
1) Unlock car with key A
2) Turn ignition into ON position with key A and roll down the window
3) Point Key B at IR Sensor and Click twice (perform both clicks under 5 seconds)
4) Turn off ignition and pull Key A out
5) Turn ignition into ON position with Key B
6) Point Key A at IR Sensor and Click once
7) Turn off ignition and Pull Key B out

Key A should be programmed as the Master Seat Program and Key B should be programmed for the Secondary seat program
So when you set your memory seats Key A is for Memory Position 1 and Key B is for memory position 2
if you don't have memory seats then you only have to point the receiver at the sensor and click once. That should just sync the IR Frequency and Codes

contact zf transmission in s.a on 0124107700 and speak to tony robertson or jaco

you would be a fool to by a car with so many problems.its gonna be a costly job to get those problems repaired with the abs and brake warning lights on.

Ok found a wiring diagram for you go here to download it:
