Looking for experience with the brake light on a 2007 Audi A6 Diesel

Hello, I had a similar problem with my Audi A5 from 2005. Although I have little experience with cars, I still remember well how my garage solved the problem. Apparently the brake light switch was faulty. They replaced it and it cost about 130 euros. But of course the cost can vary. To help you more precisely, I would need more information about your car. Please give me more details so I can help you.

Thank you, that helps. My Audi A6 has now covered 190,000 kilometers and the last service was just recently. I've already checked several fuses, but haven't found anything. Replacing the brake light switch sounds like a good idea. What exactly do I have to do and is this something I should do as a layman, or should I leave it to the professionals in the garage?

No problem, I'm glad to hear that my answer has helped. If I were you, I would leave the brake light switch replacement to the professionals. It's not extremely complicated, but you could damage other electronic systems if you don't know exactly what you're doing. The cost is also not so high that it would be worth taking the risk. When I had it done, it took about an hour. So nothing that would take a whole day. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Great, thanks for the tip! The price sounds plausible and given the situation, I'll probably leave it to the professionals in the workshop. With my knowledge of electronics, I'd rather not mess around with it myself. This has definitely helped me. I guess I'll make an appointment then. Thanks again for your help!
