Cant open doors or Bonnet battery discharged
SOURCE: 2005 a6 jump starting
I found the battery myself. All of the responses were incorrect as to where the battery was located. Everyone said it was up front but in my car, it is in the trunk. I got the problem fixed myself.
SOURCE: my 2000 a6 audi will not automatically start and
Do you mean a full charge 12.6 volts or full of water but a battery a needs to produce current cold cranking and cranking amps to spin the the starter and start the engine. It can have the correct voltage but insufficent current to start the engine
SOURCE: Audi a6 bonnet won't open
the only way I know how to do this is with the front bumper removed & as follows:
Here's the deal:
If you can remove the AC condenser you will have more room to maneuver. You will remove the grill with the logo.
use a ceiling rod (rod for ceiling grid tiles) or a long straightened wire coat hanger with a small hook on one end and fish from the drivers side of the latch it can take up to & about 90 minutes, you will be able to catch the release and pop the hood (Bonnet). It's about the equivalent of picking a lock for the first time
wrap the cable with some electrical tape and shove it into its holder above the radiator and fan. then land the cable in its carrier release and bind it with a tiny zip-tie.
There is no easy way to do this and you will have to be patient and diligent, but as soon as you catch it the hood will pop up instantly.
Btw, prop open a door as you may set off the anti-theft alarm!!.
The A6 is one of the hardest cars to break into, and this is just to get the hood open! If you find yourself in a position like me, (tired of mechanics and poor work) take your time and it will be worth it.
It may also help to check out this link as most Audi's have the exact same locking mechanism for the hood:
