Hi all,

I’m looking to take over pre-owned Audi A6 (C8) registered in nov 2020 car in the coming week. I did a PPI (reputable Audi 3rd party workshop) and requested agent service record from current owner. PPI company also suggested on repair cost (shown in Singapore dollar) . See photo 1-8 for PPI report. See photo 9-14 for Audi agent service report.

I’m a little bothered that many issues has been flagged out and things has been replaced in a short age the car. Also, in the last 1y3 months the car was driven +/-27,000km (given that I’m living in Singapore, this is considered high mileage). Only comfort is that the car is regularly serviced and  maintained by Audi.
 

1.    ⁠Have you encountered any of the error codes shown in the PPI report?
2.    ⁠And is the parts replaced by Audi is a concern/sign of abused car by current and previous owner ?
3.    ⁠What service and repair cost am I looking at for this car at current mileage (91,000km) and beyond?
4.    ⁠should I get Audi extended warranty ? Or should I look for 3rd party workshop for warranty?
5.    ⁠Please enlighten me on wear and tear to look out for? I’m looking to own this car for roughly 3 years
 

Car details: Model: Audi A6 (c8) Registered: Nov 2020 Current mileage: 91,000km Number of previous owners: 2 Under Audi warranty: Yes, expires in 5 months or when 100,000km Last service done: May 2025 by Audi agent

Concerns:

•    ⁠DRL is yellow. Believe the led is burnt. Saw couple of post in Reddit and YT. Not sure if it’s foc under agent warranty.
•    ⁠Emergency SOS module known to have other electronic issues.
•    ⁠Oil leak detected.
•    ⁠fault code detected during scan. See photo

Feel free to ask me more details of the car if I’ve missed out anything. Many thanks in advance for all your feedback. Cheers!

With the issues I'd walk away, as clearly the current owner is getting shot of it in my opinion

Hello Riyss,

So much data to read and understand. I don’t know what the regulations are in your country, but here, any vehicle driven on tyres with 1mm of tread (if I’ve read correctly) would be illegal and I would guess - worldwide? - any owner driving on such tyres would not be demonstrating a high regard for their vehicle’s maintenance. 
Aren’t there any others to choose from? 
Regards,

Gareth.
