Arthur Chavez struck in the 75th minute, assisted by Mert Komur, and Han Masengo added the second in the 81st after a pass from Dimitris Giannoulis.
Bayern remained top with 50 points, Augsburg up to 19 in 13th.
It was Bayern's second defeat of the season after their loss at Arsenal in the Champions League in November.
This result shakes the Bundesliga table and fans wonder if Bayern will recover before spring, or if coach Nagelsmann will finally hear the alarm bells.
This result shakes the table; Bayern must regroup quickly, or Augsburg will be the headline of Bavaria again.
