#6851 of 6896 Yeah, But. . . by cdnpinhead Aug 16, 2008 (1:13 pm)
in a better world, a "sport" package or "S" badge has something to do with spring rate, sway bar diameter, ride height and shock/damper characteristics. Those things cost actual money to develop and keep track of, while cladding and different tires/wheels don't. Besides which, it's easy to add tire/wheel mods later -- the real stuff, not so much.

Replying to: cdnpinhead (Aug 16, 2008 1:13 pm) Agreed. Sport should mean performance and since this isn't an actual 'S' model, the priority should be on handling components and secondary on the seats/trim to hold you place during the spirited driving.

#6855 of 6896 buying A6 by dave174 Aug 23, 2008 (4:03 pm)
Been looking for some months now among the Audi A6, Lexus GS 350, yea the Infiniti G35, and the Hyundai Genesis V8.   This is what I was offered by Audi 6 cyl quattro AWD, premium pkg, tech package, S line interior pkg, music interface, nav system, 19" wheels, sport suspension, without any state taxes fees etc cost $46,704 with .9% APR.   Seems like a fair deal to me Replies to this message: dave174 (Aug 25, 2008 2:27 pm)

Replying to: dave174 (Aug 23, 2008 4:03 pm) to all, bought the car A6 yesterday at the above price. Getting windows tinted tomorrow. Best experience dealing with Brian M with Audi Mission Viejo Ca. All aspects of the sale were flawless and professional. No pressure at all, take your time ,ask any questions you have and when your ready we can begin. Everyone I spoke with knew everything about all the models and their competition. I understand that Audi has first rate training schools for sales and service, it sure showed. Its the wife's car and she is really excited. They sold 14 cars from 4PM-8PM when I was there. Happy to be 1 of the 14. We made a great decision to go with Audi and Audi Mission Viejo

Replying to: harrylyme (Jun 26, 2007 1:57 pm) Hi harryly. I don't know if you're still reading these message boards, but I'm curious about the result from your brake pad and catalytic converter issues. Coincidentally, I'm having the same issue right now. The difference is mine is a '02 A4, with about 77,000 miles. I had 80,000 mile preventative 4 weeks ago. Then, 3 weeks ago, the brake pad waring light came one. I took it back to the dealer and was told by my Audi Service technician that my brakes are good and to ignore the warning light. Then, at the end of last week, the MIL light came on. I took my car in yesterday, and this morning I'm told that the reset it, my car passed the trouble test, and that I can come pick it up without repair (like you said, they require 2 failures). This all just seems wrong.   What was your outcome?
#6858 of 6896 Am I not lucky? by volodos Jan 08, 2009 (2:09 pm)
I purchased an A6 last August. Since then, I have been driven a loaner car (A4) almost 9 weeks becasue my a6 has been kept by local audi dealer to fix a probelm.   Even if they have spent total 9 weeks to figure out and been trying to resolve the issue the car has, still they have not resolved the issue. Now what can i handle this situation?   I am very skeptical to keep that. In order to evade a lemon law, they have not wanted to release the car before they confirm that the issue is resolved.   This means that I may drive a4 several weeks more.   I am really regretting about purchasing a A6 instead of lexus GS series ( expected better reliability).   the best thing I want is to return and purchase another brand.   Any suggestion for this situation would be appreciated.   Thanks a ton.

Replying to: volodos (Jan 08, 2009 2:09 pm) Has your long term A4 loaner experienced any problems?   The 09 A4 is very attractive and similar in size to the A6. Or if you like the Euro feel there are others that are compelling (C class, 5 series etc)   This is assuming you could get out of your existing situation. I would followup with the lemon law; 9 weeks is unacceptable   It's difficult to stay with a brand after a bad (terrible) experience
#6860 of 6896 Audi A6 replacement tires by hearthawk Jan 28, 2009 (10:38 am)
Just wondering if anyone had suggestions for replacement tires for my Audi A6 Avant. Mostly highway driving in the Midwest with 3-4 snows per year. Not looking to change tires seasonally so touring all-season tires most practical. I have ContiPro 245/45/17 inch tires now that made it almost 35,000 miles. I would like a tire with a little better wear but no increase in road noise. Research thus far shows good marks for General Altimax HP and poor marks for Michelin Pilot MXM4. Any info would be appreciated.
