Audi A6 2016 Bulb Size
Bulb size chart
This 2016 Audi A6 bulb size page helps you verify the correct bulb type by lighting position, so you can match the right replacement before you buy. Because the A6 could be equipped with different lighting systems, the bulb chart is organized by function to make it easier to identify the exact fit for your car.
On the 2016 Audi A6, many exterior lights are LED from the factory, while some interior and cargo-area lamps use replaceable bulb types. Use this guide to check headlight, brake, turn signal, reverse, license plate, and cabin light positions one by one, especially if you are replacing a single bulb or comparing both sides of the car.
Fitment can vary by trim, lighting package, market, and body style, so always confirm the installed bulb before ordering. The 2016 A6 may use LED assemblies in many positions, while halogen or xenon-equipped cars can have different front lighting bulb requirements, including different turn signal and headlight setups. If you are considering aftermarket LED conversions, make sure the bulb base, size, and connector match the housing, and check for compatibility with the vehicle’s electronics. The safest approach is to inspect the original bulb or housing label before purchase, especially for interior lamps and any front lighting that differs between LED and HID headlight packages.
