Audi A6 Saloon 1.9 TDi 4d (1998/S) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
It doesn't hold its value as well as the 5 series and it is no match for the E class, therefore cheaper to buy.
Costs
Parts and servicing are expensive, don't get fooled by the VW group, you are paying premium prices here.

On the road
Driving
Comfortable, but not sporty in any way.
Performance
Not great from the diesel engine, but very economical.

Living with it
Reliability
Biggest disappointment ever. Had the car 9 months and 10k miles and had to replace both suspension arms, control arm, alternator and now the latest - it doesn't start sometimes when it is too hot. Audi couldn't find the fault…
