Buyers guide

[Rob 83]

Hi all. I'm a long term VW owner and had quite a few different models over the years, currently running a b7 passat. I am looking at purchasing my first Audi.

I'm looking at  A6 Avant's. 2016-2018 models. I'm after a 2.0l auto black edition and have a few to look at this weekend. Does anyone have any advice on what to look out for. 

The last dsg box I drove was on our mk7 golf in 2014 but unfortunately this lasted a grand total of 6 weeks as the car got nicked and we went back to manuals. 

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. 

Check service history for proof of cambelt and water pump changes and gearbox services. Make sure ac works as compressors can be expensive. 

Make sure the heater works consistently between all vents and heat is the same. If not it could be an issue with the heater matrix. 

Issues with dpf, egr are well documented.
