Is there a wheel bearing and hub assembly for AUDI A6 C7 3.0T model? for the life of me I cannot find one to order, so I can DIY (I'd rather not buy a press lol)

I believe there is, check FCP euro...
For rear axle on FWD models yes.
For AWD no, not that I have seen. They just sell kits that are the bearing and hub but not already fitted together.
Although I am not sure why exactly other than cost. It allows you to reuse the potentially $150-$275 hub and just replace the $80-$290 bearing.

I have noticed Ebay has a couple, not sure the quality, whats involved in pressing the bearing in? can I do it myself?

I assume you are asking about the quattro, not the FWD?
It's involved, but not impossible obviously. If you are not a DIY type of guy it might be better to leave it to a pro. Maybe check out some YouTube videos to get an idea.
It would be easier with a press, but at least on the quarto you could theoretically get the assembly off and just bring it to a shop to press out and in the new bearing. With the other varieties you have to get the whole upright off to bring it to a shop.
I've done them before on the car (older car) with this tool, but again, not for the faint of heart.

Check FCP Euro.
For Quattro models (at least), all four corners use the same part.

Not the assembly. Not from a reputable brand anyways. Gotta get the hub and bearing separate and get them pressed together.
