3 Years

[fafa]

I've just passed 3 years ownership of my A6 bitdi. In that time...

20,000 miles driven
1 water Pump replaced
2 accidents (rolled into a tree stump, shunted at a roundabout)
1 windscreen replaced
2 wheel bearings replaced
1 turbo replaced
1 EGR valve replaced
4 new tyres
4 brake pads replaced
4 alloys acid stripped and powder coated
3 windows tinted
All chrome trim wrapped
1 fuel flap actuator unit replaced

Managed to get all services free of charge and pay for just 1 MOT.

It's been an expensive 3 years and was close to getting rid after the turbo saga but 6 months on I'm enjoying owning it again.

Wow... I'm @2 years 6 months with 17K miles and my only expense has been 2 services, and I'm even on the same tyres but they do need replacing in the next couple of months. Now I'm only a 2.0TDi quattro, but I'm surprised the 3.0TDi had chewed it's way through that amount of hardware in only 20K miles.

Cars have problems but seems you've been very unlucky.
Had my Bitdi 4 years. Bought at 2 years old, 31000 miles. Now done 58000 and the only expense I've had are services, MOT and 4 tyres. I've probably spent 8k miles towing a caravan in Uk and Europe and its been totally reliable.
