New brakes working well but only 1k miles so far." Perhaps the lighter weight contributes to the rotor heating problem. Recently replaced with nonAudi brakes that are Less expensive and heavier than the OEM. The dealer has replaced them but Audi USA does not accept this as a design flaw. Apparently the rotors don't dissipate heat well enough and warp under stressful use. Rotors seem to warp rapidly, especially if you commute involves rush hours highway driving. "I am on my fourth set of rotors in 48k miles.

Audi replaced mine for free but is not doing this for everyone (which I don't understand)." Common problem, and Audi definitely knows about it. "warped front brake rotors - started after only 12000 miles on the car. I don't think they bled the brake line properly." It almost goes to the floor and will only come back after the second pump. The car was returned to Audi today for a soft brake pedal. "The A6 was in the shop for warped rotors 3 times for the first 16,000 miles. "Front rotors warped and had to be replaced." Car was operational but braking was impacted by warped feedback." This last time the rotors were on back order so took a month before a repair was made.

"This was the second time that the rotors warped under regular use.
#Audi a6 2006 2.0 manual
At first Audi Service advised me not to use the feature in the mountains, and then they relented and said to try using the manual transmission control" I live in the mountains, and the Adaptive Cruise Control was the primary reason for having chosen Audi over other brands. Audi service said that it was because I had used the Adaptive Cruise Control in the mountains, and that the Adaptive Cruise Control had put too much wear on the brakes. "At 10,000 miles the rotors failed and had to be replaced. "Vehicle was a stop sale Turbo Diesel A6 and due to 'Lot Rot the brakes became rusted and pitted" People on line say its the electronic parking brake, which is activated as soon as you get out of your car when it's running (getting mail) pushing on the rotors? But, it happened on front also."

I do not have many hills and I do not ride my brakes, and I even drop the trans into sport mode to slow down the car. The dealer keeps repairing them under warranty, but it doesn't take long for the issue to come back. "Best sedan on the market bar none.I just have issues with pulsation and warped rotors. The service Tech did not disagree with me when I sted so." Seems to be a recurring problem with the 2016 Audi A6. "Brake rotors were turned about 36 months ago for the same pulsating problem. "Uneven wear of the rotors, which had to be replaced to solve the problem" "2nd time brake rotors were replaced in 25000 miles." I had a number of complaint all of which was fixed promptly under certified warranty." "car devolped harsh pulsation soon after purchase. Happens all the time when slowing from higher speeds" Have replaced the brakes twice already and only have 50,000 mile on the car." I have had issue with the brakes grinding and shaking the car. "Front brake pads needed to be replaced at about 19000 miles. Something is fundamentally wrong with the system" Less than three months after the replacement, the rotors began vibrating again and will need to be replaced soon. After much arguing, the dealership agreed to replace the rotors on their dime (otherwise what does certified pre-owned mean?). This was my second A6 so i know who to use the brakes, my last A6 went nearly 60k miles before I needed rotors replaced. Three months later the rotors had warped and needed to be replaced.

"I had to replace both front brakes at 12000 miles which seems excessive to me and after 27000 they want me to replace the rear" Initially, the dealer attributed this to normal wear but then agreed to waive the cost of replacement. Dealer attributed this to "Audi's big brakes." At 15000 miles the front brakes had to be replaced. "Brakes were grinding and throbbing from the time of delivery. "Brake warning light came on.Replaced rear pads and rotors" They realized I was probably going to stop using them and i had to replace all brake components for all 4 wheels to the tune of $2,000+" "it seemed the dealer screwed me when I brought the car in for the last of my prepaid service intervals.
