Removing the Audi A6 lock cylinder

Model: Audi A6 MK 3, C6 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Door lock

In this short video tutorial we will see how to remove the lock cylinder of an Audi A6 second series. First we open the door and we go to remove the plastic cover of the external handle, leveraging something thin; then we remove the plastic side cap and we go to unlock our cylinder by inserting something pointed, as shown in the video. At this point we just have to remove the cylinder itself from the outside, levering and pulling towards you, extracting it; then we reassemble the new one, inserting it and lowering the pin inside the hole to lock it.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
