Audi a4 b8 revving before pulling off
Is this the handbrake engaging? If recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. If the issue is with the gearbox I'd recommend a gearbox oil change depending on when it was last done. Also the gearbox might need a software update

Whining noise from heater fan
My advice is get it booked in to have the system checked over. Could be the motor failing

Engine oil light woes
Yep could be the pressure switch. When I had a similar issue on my A6 I had an oil flush which helped as the gunge came out. For peace of mind I then did another oil change soon after the flush for ultimate peace of mind

Safe To Use Lane Assist With No Multifunction Stalk?
I'd recommend either turning it off on obd11 or fit the correct stalk. Let's face it Audi wouldn't fit a different stalk for cars with lane assist for no reason.

Automatic transmission
I agree with Gareth, definitely do the gearbox oil change if not done in a while. You could also look to see if the gearbox software needs updating or a diagnostic check.ro see if any fault codes flag up. There's an independent Audi specialist in Wigston Leicester called Chapman's. I've never used them but they could be one of the closer Audi specialists to you.

Here's a list of the A6 spring codes which I felt might be useful: 1BA - Standard 1BB - Heavy duty 20mm higher 1BC - Special purpose 1BD - S6 1BE - Sport 1BG - Suspension with level control system. 1BH - USA spec 1BJ - a6 with light armour 1BP - Heavy duty but same height as 1BA with limited bump stop. Potentially for rough terrain. 1BT - heavy duty 7mm higher

I'd recommend a diagnostic check. If you've bought it from a dealer within the last 30 days then you're entitled to a full refund or for the garage to fix the issue FOC.

I think there might be settings in the mmi or a switch on the back of the headlights to adjust for European driving.

They want you to scrap the car so you buy a new one. I'm in the same boat with my 02 A6. Having to buy parts from eBay even if it eBay worldwide.
