My mil ( malfunction indicator lamp ) came on, in my Audi A6 2012 on 1/21/18. I made an appointment with my Audi dealership on 1/31/18. I was informed that my trans coolant valve was leaking into a wiring harness. They replaced my N509 valve and wiring connector. I found a technical service bulletin regarding this problem in my car as well as other Audi models. There was a recall for this in Audi A8 2010-2013. ( I have included these in the files that I have uploaded.) the affected A8 vehicles have a coolant valve leak allowing coolant to enter the engine control module causing a loss of power or the engine to stall. A vehicle stall increases the risk of a crash. I had my car repaired as my wife drives this car and I certainly did not want the car to stall and possibly have a crash. It seems to me that the Audi A6 2012 should also be included in this recall. If any additional information is needed, please contact me.
