If you can get hold of outer cable with vise grips and pull on it while someone presses down on hood might release it

Take to the nearest Service Station.

Chances are your Audi v-6 has a valve cover/cam cover gasket failure. Relatively easy fix to replace said gasket.

The hot water is may be coolant and may be leaking from the heatercore and causing windows to fog, another thing to check is to make sure the heater box drain is clear and also the rear firewall drains, if you open the hood and look to the rear where the battery is thatarea fills with water due to plugged drains at the bottom, theres a drain on each side and one under the battery but the only way to get this water hot would be if the water would enter the heater box which i kinda doubt, this sounds more like coolant. i would have the hoses checked to make sure its not a hose going to heatercore and causing the leak inside, if it is the heatercore then this is an expensive job, i just noticed the year, a 1994, this may be a heatercore leaking. have the system leak tested and the leak location will be clear. hope this helps.

cheapest 20/50 change every 6000 moles with a oil filter every third oil change .no long life oil ,any cheap oil and if engine a bit noisey add a tin of STP or wynns

I think you are talking about the radiator fan for the coolant in first place and than about the heater fan (speed 1)? If yes than first thing is to get the relay in for the radiator fan as it will not cool your coolant liquid and will cause the engine to overheat, with the second one it is a faulty resistor inside the vent and that is why you don't have the first speed, unless the pollen filter is dirty and the first gear cannot actually **** enough air.

Check cold start fuel injector.

Hello leisurefun4u

There are quite a few different things that can make your Audi overheat, so I will not even try to list them here for you. I will do you one better, though!

Coolant from the car's cooling system will generally escape into the oil passages (and into the cylinders) under pressure when you have a blown head gasket on your engine. You will also notice that you will need to be topping up the coolant level.

This is not a reliable model and the head gaskets on these engines are prone to failure if the cooling system is not completely flushed out and new coolant added at least every 2 years. The head gaskets will also blow if the car has been operated when the engine is overheated - such as when overheating is caused by allowing the coolant level to drop too low.

In your case the symptoms you have described do point to a blown head gasket. If you inspect the coolant in your cooling system when it is cold you will probably also see evidence of oil in the coolant fluid.

You need to get the car to a reputable audi specialist, who is familiar with the problems with these engines, to check it out for you.
If you have a blown head gasket, as it appears, the repair costs will be quite expensive as are most mechanical repairs on German cars.

doin a head gasket replacement is not really easy specially if the engine stil in the car . . u have to take the right procedures unless u trying to do a cheap fix, u need to check for warpage for cylinder head and block deck so when it comes to head gasket work u really need to do things carefully and take it step by step.

I think you may have an Igniter problem. If you can locate it in the ignition system then change it. A secondhand one will do. You should then get the spark your car needs!!

Sure, I understand.

OEM means Original Equipment Manufacturer, and my question was, is the radio the original for this car, or was it installed later as a swap or replacement?

On my VW, safe will come up initially, then 1000, then a short time later, it will resume normal operation, after you turn it on the first time.

Do you have the original Owner Manual for the car? If so, the code number and how to enter the code is usually left in there (unless the original owner took it out.). There is a way to get a new code, but let's not go there just yet (after all "you just a girl" ). :~)
