Known issues on the 2013 S6. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the Passenger Occupant Detection System: stress or wear on the front passenger seat's body-sensing mat can cause the PODS module to malfunction, so the front air bag may not deploy properly in a crash. The second covers the fuel delivery system, where a fuel line built outside manufacturing tolerance can leak fuel near an ignition source and create a fire risk. The third covers the turbocharger, where a blocked oil supply strainer can starve the bearings of lubrication, letting the turbine wheel contact its housing or the shaft break, which can stall the engine and increase the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 42 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 a PODS fault to a fuel line inspection or a turbocharger oil supply check, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2013 S6.
