Hey anuplazar! For our info, what year is your A6?
At first glance, this kinda sounds like an ignition switch problem to me. What does the check engine light do while the vehicle isn't cranking? Before going too much deeper, I'd be tempted to wiggle the key or tap on the steering column while the no communication issue is taking place.
