    Audi service plan

    Result! I had a similar thing withy car when I bought it, I tried to sign up for the service plan to be told that there was one on it, unfortunately for me it was a two service plan and they both had been used. Nice little bonus for you though.

    AUDI Service History Check Online Free. Website ?

    When I tried to get the service history from audi last year, they wouldn't give it to me as I didn't own the car, so I feel your pain.

    High mileage 2.0 TDI's! What does your odometer read?

    I suspect my new c7 allroad will be a lot more fragile and costly, if I had the drive space I would have kept my old trooper, like your old car mine is still on the road as I checked its tax online

    High mileage 2.0 TDI's! What does your odometer read?

    I had unti recently a b7 with 239k on it when I sold it, not a really high mileage but it hadn't been serviced since 120k miles. It used oil so was topped up when necessary but that was it engine wise. I didn't set out to do this it just crept up on me and then it just got to the point where I...

    A5 3.0 TDI quattro buying advice

    I bought a 2015 a6 3.0tdi with 100k on the clocks, FASH and my chains needed replacing, luckily I heard it and the dealer repaired under warranty, the bill was £3900 at an independent. When I was researching buying one the chains did come up but i wouldn't have said its common, like for example...

    S-tronic service intervals

    That's a result with getting the audi dealership to give you the service history, I think I must have called audi uk, I'll know for next time. Even better result with the gearbox oil change, is it a dry clutch one as mentioned further up?

    A6 BiTDI(C7), or A4 3.0 TDI or S4 (B9)avant, which to go for?

    I'm sure I'll get used to the size, there are plenty of vans longer and wider that manage to park ok but as someone who's worried about parking dents, the wider size of it does come into it when I'm parking in supermarkets.. I have to park daily on the road or public car park as well as I dont...

    A6 BiTDI(C7), or A4 3.0 TDI or S4 (B9)avant, which to go for?

    I've just been in a similar position except for an s4, I wanted 3.0 tdi, and quattro preferably avant but open to all variants of a4, a5 a6 & a7. I ended up with a 272 a6 allroad, speed is subjective and to me its plenty quick enough. I've only had the car a couple of months and although I...

    S-tronic service intervals

    My car has a three month warranty, but its limited to £1000, that doesn't go far with Audi parts prices, check the small print. I think within the first 30 days, if the car develops a problem then the dealer will have to repair it or you could return it as not fit for purpose, I'm not 100% on...

    S-tronic service intervals

    The car is a 2015 A6 allroad. There gearbox services are every 38K miles, mine was done at 84.5K rather than 76K but i thought that would hopefully be ok. Yes I absolutely would have walked away. Its the first car with an s-tronic gearbox that i have owned and like you i didn't initially...
