According to the State Administration of Market Supervision and Administration, on February 26, FAW-Volkswagen filed a recall plan with it, and decided to recall some imported A6 Avant 2.0T and A7 2.0T, domestic A6L, etc. starting from February 26 Models, a total of 124,800 models are involved. Among them, a total of 118,074 domestically-made Audi A6L models were involved, mainly part of the models produced from April 25, 2018 to November 24, 2020.


The reason for the recall is that the vehicle is under certain conditions when the engine is idling, due to the driving algorithm of the camshaft adjuster in the engine control unit. The imperfect learning function may lead to deviations in the results, causing the camshaft to not be adjusted to the correct position, and may cause the engine to run unsteadily. In extreme cases, the engine may stop running, which may cause safety hazards to a certain extent.

The solution is that FAW-Volkswagen Automobile Co., Ltd. will entrust Audi's authorized terminal dealers to upgrade the engine control unit software for vehicles within the scope of the recall for free to eliminate potential safety hazards. It is worth noting that this recall was carried out when the State Administration for Market Regulation initiated a defect investigation. Affected by the investigation, FAW-Volkswagen Co., Ltd. decided to take recall measures instead of actively choosing to recall.

As the main model of FAW Audi, the Audi A6L will sell 182032 vehicles in 2020, a year-on-year increase of 38.8%, accounting for nearly 30% of FAW Audi's total sales.

“The passive recall of related models may have a negative impact on Audi’s sales and user reputation. As the top-selling model of the same level, the Audi A6L failed to control the quality of the vehicle’s gearbox and engine. Frequent flameout problems are really inappropriate.' Industry analyst Xing Mengjie told China Car.com.
