this is helpful, i called audi, they can offer a 6yr/60 mile for 1752, plus $240 for turbo, and $375 for a no deductable. I called a 3rd party, American Mercury. They have a 5 year, 75k mile that starts now, unlike the 6 yr which starts the year of the car. Mercury has that one for $2405, plus $125 no deductable. They say the only thing it doesn't cover is the safety belts, air bags, and speakers.. Strange. Only question is this worth it, probably, will they stay in business? who knows..

Yeah, tough call. I personally would go with the Audi warranty. I would presume there is less haggling when it is time to pay the service center...

I am looking at Buying a pre-owned A6. I do not know anyone first hand that has this car. I have a couple of questions:
1) Roomy in side?
2) Maintenance on the car high or low?
3) How is the trunk space?
4) Good Family car?
 
whatever feedback anyone can offer would be great thank you.

Hi,
 
I've owned from new a 2000 A6 2.7T, 2003 A6 2.7T and currently a 2007 A6 3.2. They have proven to be reliable, fun to drive and IMHO good looking. They have spacious interiors as well as being the benchmark for interior layout and quality for the industry. The trunks are large (15.4 cu. ft.) and the rear seats fold down as well for added capacity. The Quattro all wheel drive system gives added security in poor driving conditions as wheel as feeling "glued to the road". If your looking used make sure car is certified by Audi. Repairs are costly and, frankly, I wouldn't own a complex car like this one without it being warrantied.

thank you for you reply. I would only look at a certified one but my question is how often have you needed repairs?

Xenon replacement by jim198
Jan 06, 2008 (11:10 am)

Hello,
Is it possible to replace my Xenon bulb in my 1999 A6 myself? The Auto Zone guy said only the dealer should do it. The bulb in question is the round one in the plastic housing. By the the way, the plastic housing has condensation on the inside of it--is this normal or a source of the problem? I'm new to the forum and new to cars but pretty handy so your advice is appreciated!

IMHO it will possibly cost MORE to have the replacement done by YOU.
 
Since the dealer will replace the bulb for a fixed price, I would not even consider doing this.
 
If you make ANY mistakes, you buy the mistake.
 
Unless you are familiar with this maintenance item, why even consider doing this yourself. If you risk X dollars which is pretty much a bigger, by far number, why not pay for the thing to be done by folks who have done this routinely, rather than try to do it yourself.
 
OTOH, if this is a career move for you, have at it.

Hey Mark, where've you been? Haven't seen your posts around here for a month or two. Welcome back.
 
Best Regards,
