Cheeky plug......My Avant is for sale.......
Why're you selling, Tiffy? I thought you'd pretty much got the car as you want it.
NOt 100% sure tbh......its JUST how i wanted it....so if it sells it sells, if it doesnt then fine
93k with full service history including the cambelt replaced and the injector/wiring loom replaced as of the recall from Audi. As it sits on the TTRS rims im wanting £9800 but with the OE Black 18" Rims im after £9000...

Simple answer is to look at the sticky section above and basically there only appears to be two rules
1, avoid any 2.0 tdi like the plague
2, avoid any multitronoc gearbox like the plague
Simple eh?

Check the service history and make damn sure it has the gearbox oil changed every 40,000 miles.
I had it on a B6 2.4 V6 petrol. I had the car for four years, and took it from 54,000 to 90,000 miles. I had the oil changed twice in the time I had it, and nothing went wrong. It was a 2003 model, so the first generation design that was more prone to problems. Later ones are a lot stronger, but can still suffer from random ECU failures.
They do have a bad reputation but a high percentage of failures can be put down to people not following the service schedule (oil change every 40,000 is an absolute must) or remapping diesels to push out more torque than the early boxes were able to handle.
