Hi,
What tyres did you fit in the end. I recently put a set of Cooper Zeon CS6 on my 2005 A6 3.0 TDI quattro SE saloon (std 16" wheels) and find the road noise unbearable apart from smooth tarmac where they are silent. Any tyre recommendations from anyone, I'm more interested in a quiet ride...

Hi,
I have a similar problem with my 2005 A6 3.0 tdi which I have just purchased and is suffering from the same symptoms as you have although I don't know which side it is coming from. The car is booked into a specialist near Chippenham who will have the car overnight Monday (29th Sept) and...
