Significant gas leak caused by broken gas "in tank sending units" housing and seal. Gas will leak and fill the inside of the car with fums as well as under the car. Replacement required buying a revised design sending units that include all three sending units. The price is high ~$500 and the consequences very dangerous. My car is: 2004 Audi A6 [xxx] 2004 A6Q 2.7T information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
The contact owns a 2004 Audi A6. The contact stated that when refueling the vehicle over the three quarter capacity level, a substantial amount of fuel would leak underneath the vehicle near the exhaust pipe. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for diagnostic testing and stated that the fuel tank rollover valve was leaking. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact expressed significant concern of the safety risk involved. The failure mileage was 90,000. The VIN was unavailable.
2004 Audi A6 sedan, 3.0 engine developed a sudden loss of power just before vehicle stalled while driving on highway at 65 mph. Vehicle was towed to repair shop where it was determined that the fuel pump had failed.
Car's engine stopped while at a red light. Would not start after failure. Ultimately, cause was determined to be a failed fuel pump. I saw that there was a recall on the fuel pump for 2003 A6 models including 3L vehicles, but not for 2004 models.]
