Audi A6 Ignition Coil – Function, Symptoms & Replacement in Nairobi

The ignition coil is one of the most crucial parts of the Audi A6 ignition system, responsible for transforming low-voltage current from the battery into the high-voltage spark needed to ignite the fuel-air mixture inside the engine cylinders. Without a properly functioning ignition coil, your Audi A6 will struggle to perform efficiently, leading to misfires, poor fuel economy, and reduced engine power. At Natial Drive Nairobi, we specialize in supplying genuine OEM and high-quality aftermarket ignition coils for Audi A6 C6, C7, and C8 models, ensuring reliability and performance.

What Does the Audi A6 Ignition Coil Do?

The ignition coil functions as a compact electrical transformer. Its primary job is to step up the car battery’s 12V current into 20,000–40,000 volts, which is powerful enough to create a spark at the spark plug. This spark ignites the air-fuel mixture, allowing combustion to take place.

How It Works in the Audi A6 Engine

1. The battery supplies low voltage to the ignition coil.

2. The coil converts low voltage into high voltage using magnetic induction.

3. The high voltage is sent to the spark plugs.

4. The spark plugs ignite the fuel-air mixture in the cylinders.

5. Combustion occurs, powering the engine.

This process happens thousands of times per minute, which shows how vital a healthy ignition coil is for smooth engine performance.
