Known issues on the 2010 A6 Quattro. Three separate recalls on federal record for this model year all trace to the same defect: the passenger frontal air bag inflator module can rupture or explode from propellant degradation, sending metal fragments into the cabin and risking serious injury or death to occupants. Owners have filed 17 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind the air bag system, along with everything else on the car, are here.

Whether you're inspecting the restraint system after a recall or working through a supercharged V6 service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2010 A6 Quattro.
