Spartacus 68 think the service every 5k is probably sensible, I’m only doing around 6k miles a year now that stopped work and I do worry about doing short journeys in the main, it does get a run to Cornwall and back, about 600 miles a few times a year but carbon build up is a worry for me, not sure I should be worried but given it’s a 15 plate and only done 73k miles, like you I want to preserve it as long as possible, never had a car this comfortable that is such value for money, plus want to keep away from the dreaded swap to electric as long as possible because they are not right for me at present, I hate stopping on long journeys and if go to the continent why would you want to spend half your time looking for chargers and then sat in either a queue for one or waiting to get to a point where there is enough in the battery to reach a destination?

I follow VAG Technics in Dudley on you tube and they seem very competent

Bought exactly this car about 4 months ago and have to say I’m loving it, just bought some new febi engine mounts to fit after Audi inspection showed one was weeping, believe they should be changed after 40-50k miles, reasonable price so long as Audi don’t fit them, labour rate of over £200 oh in Stafford but there service plans are reasonable if you want to keep up a FSH for resale, upgraded to CarPlay cost £50 for sim and £60 for box to have it wireless, easy self install, cat doesn’t need remapping, stick is more than good enough, make sure gearbox is serviced, had Audi do mine, S-tronic sounds expensive to fix if goes wrong so look after it, make sure a decent tyre is fitted and I promise you you’ll be happy as such a comfy car, if want a racier car don’t get an Allroad look to the S6, friend has one and too still a ride for me

Hi All, new member here, glad to join your community, I have owned Audis for many years but have recently purchased my first A6 C7 Allroad, the 268 BHP version and am looking for some advise and help, firstly I want to explore the possibility of freshening up the look of the front grill but there seems limited option for this, I believe it differs in size to the rest of the range? Any suggestions on where to go with this gratefully received, secondly thoughts on mapping, my understanding is that there is an oil pick up issue built into this model for emissions, is it worth the risk having a remap because of this? Many thanks for your time in looking over these questions, I would be most grateful for any advice
