Hi there, I currently have a A4 avant b6 2.5 TDi quattro sport. I am looking to get something slightly bigger and its probably going to be an A6 avant.
I've been having a look around the internet and there are quite a lot of well spec'd ones going for reasonable money. A few questions I have tho:
I'm looking for a 06-07 plate with up to 60k miles and with a budget of around 15k.
I've seen a few 2.0 TDi's S-lines within this budget with good spec. Is the S-line the equvilent of the old sport? ie does the SE drive like a comfy boat and the S-line handle pretty well while not been too uncomfortable?
What s the BHP of the 2.0 TDI is it 140 or 170 and how can I tell?
Is the 2.0 tdi engine big enough for the car or is it sluggish? is the 2.7 or 3.0 tdi worth going for instead?
what sort of realistic mileage do people get with this engine?
Is it a reliable engine?
and finally have many people remapped this engine and how is it compared to the std (eg reliablity, performance, economy)?
thanks in advance for any help and advice :icon_thumright:
