    New S6 owner with a few questions

    Watch this if you want to watch what the a6 c6 can really do, they did this as an experiment if i remember rightly, the car has cable underneath it but they admit that was for safety precautions just in case if the worst was to happen but was never needed and interfered with what the driver can...

    New S6 owner with a few questions

    Hi mate, the a6 is a real beast. 1) have you had a look in the glovebox, you would normally have a 6 disc cd changer, during 2007 these became mp3 cd changers but some cars as a option had AMI (audi music interface) fitted which has a usb port and a aux port, if this was never fitted, you could...

    2.0tfsi engines

    how much you looking to spend on the A6, and have you thought about the 3.0TFSI engine, as they known to be really reliable engine plus you would have quattro. Thing to remember is that the a6 is a really heavy car, its probably best to see the difference between mpg in real life between the 2...

    2.0tfsi engines

    Hi Mate I believe the A4 B8 and the a5's were known for it really well to drink alot of oil and the pistons/cylinders would get worn if people didnt top it up every so often. Off the top of my head, i think it was only an issue for the a6 after 2009 but it might be on the years as i can't seem...

    2008 3L V6 Diesel emissions amount? PART 2!

    but yours might be fitted with a DPF as some vehicles were fitted as a extra option with DPF's as they were not compulsory at the time, they only had to have the preparation for DPF's

    2008 3L V6 Diesel emissions amount? PART 2!

    205g/km seems very low for the 3.0L TDI's, i remember that the saloon were cheaper on tax over the avants as they had increased 2 g/km over the saloons, the a6's from my memory was that they emmisions at 226 g/km for the avants and 224 g/km for the saloons and they are in tax bands K or L

    Consumes too much diesel

    Hi Tariq, I have the A6 3.0 TDI and one of the things i learnt is that these cars take a hammering in town, i have had mine for 9 months now and if the car has warmed up you can get between 25 to 30 mpg depending on your driving style but if the car is cold or your stuck in a lot of traffic i...
