Known issues on the 2009 A6 Quattro. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year, all tied to the passenger frontal air bag inflator module. Volkswagen Group of America issued separate regional campaigns covering these vehicles because degraded propellant in the inflator can cause it to explode or rupture on deployment, sending sharp metal fragments into the driver or other occupants and risking serious injury or death. Owners have filed 21 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged.
Whether you're confirming inflator replacement work, chasing a supercharger-side issue on the 3.0L, or working through routine service on the 4.2L V8, this manual keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2009 A6 Quattro.
