    Mileage

    It would bug me but I guess it's not worth changing as I guess a 19 year old A4 must be only worth £350 whatever the mileage :( But it does drive well.

    Correcting the mileage ?

    Check your drain holes, people

    Both my B5 A4 and my fathers A6 had this problem on my fathers car it was much worse as you could see the water actually coming through.

    Oil sludge issue repaired, Car down on power though

    Could you please tell me how you can tell if you have sludge buildup. It's just that someone told me that it may be the case with my car but I don't get any oil light on etc. all I get is a slight noise from the hydraulic tappets which I suspect are sticky due to lack of use when I start the car up.
