Steve Q Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 The question what s, how many miles do you do a year and what kind of miles. If it's low miles mainly around town then avoid diesel as you'll just end up with blocked egr or dpfs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Q Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 If most are in town then I think you'd be better with petrol to be honest. Regardless of engine make sure the gearbox has been serviced on time and that the tyres match/say tread as uneven tyre wear can damage the quattro system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
