Known issues on the 2003 RS6. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the fuel tank rollover valve: aging of the plastic material combined with bending stress from the aluminum ventilation line can crack the valve nipple, and a resulting fuel leak near an ignition source could lead to a vehicle fire. The second covers the electrical system, where a driver's knees pressing against the dashboard knee bolster can contact the headlight switch wiring harness and cause an electrical short, with the potential for a fire to originate in the left dashboard area. Owners have filed 48 complaints for the year and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From tracing a fuel tank vent leak to inspecting the dashboard wiring harness or servicing the turbocharged V8, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2003 RS6.
