    Too much time on my hands

    I would definitely change the cambelt but I wouldn't use an Audi garage, too expensive. I was quoted £750 by Audi and charged £300 by my local and very reliable garage.

    Many thanks ENDA1. I'm writing to Audi today and when I get their response I'll let you know what it was. Thanks again.

    A6 Auto Box Reliability ?

    Thanks v much for this Enda 1, I will check it out and also write to Audi. In reply to Bascule, I'm glad you have had such a satisfying experience but many, including me, were never told of the need, let alone the absolute critical need, to ensure that the gearbox oil should be changed every 40K...

    A6 Auto Box Reliability ?

    A6 Auto Box Reliability ?

    A6 TDi Multitronic problems

    Either. The garage is saying that the gearbox oil should be changed at 40,000 miles. I bought the car when it had 36,000 miles on the clock and part of the deal was that it would be fully serviced so I assume that the gearbox oil would have been changed as nobody told me that it should be...

    A6 TDi Multitronic problems

    I've got a 3 year old A6 Avant with a 2.5TDi engine and an Multitronic gearbox. It has started juddering when pulling away. Juddering is between 1200 and 1400 revs. Has anyone else had this problem, what causes it and what the solution is ?
