Some Audi A6 Quattro owners report experiencing intermittent starting issues despite having no signs of battery or alternator failure. These problems may stem from a faulty starter motor, which can produce clicking sounds or fail to engage properly when starting the vehicle. Additionally, some owners find that a weak key fob can lead to inconsistent starting, as the signal may not be properly received by the car. Engine-related issues, including fuel system or ignition system failures, are also cited as potential causes of the starting problem. Furthermore, pump failures, such as a malfunctioning fuel pump, can prevent the engine from receiving adequate fuel, resulting in unreliable starting. It is advisable for owners experiencing these issues to have their vehicles inspected by a qualified mechanic or dealership for accurate diagnosis and necessary repairs.
