what are our first thoughts........... I saw one for real on Sunday and it looked good and was getting much public viewing.

Can someone tell me what oil might have been factory delivered with my '99 A6, and what the dealer would be using during regular changes? I've posted here before concerning taking my car to an independent. Granted, its 8 years old, but... Up until 8 months ago, its only had dealer oil...

The automaker plans to showcase the 2008 Saab Turbo X AWD with a more powerful, 280-hp version of the turbocharged 2.8-liter V-6 that is in front-wheel-drive versions of the 9-3 Aero XWD. The limited-edition Turbo X cars will be styled to resemble the original Black Turbos. That means pumping up...

Just had the water pump, et al, changed out on my 98.5 A4Q 2.8 for the second time. The factory stuff I changed at 63k out of caution, this stuff was just replaced because the water pump was beginning to fail after only 47k miles. What would cause this to happen? I'm just happy my mechanic...

when I (we) buy white goods, washing machine, fridge, kettle etc I (we) say to myself (ourselves) if this lasts a couple of years then I've (we've) had my (our) monies worth. now when we buy a car we say its gotta last 5 or maybe 10 years............. in both cases its nice to have something...

I have just bought an 1987 Audi 5000 Turbo Quattro.On the driver side rear wheel the parking brake does not work.The cable seems to be fine, but when i pull the lever only the passengr side rear wheel engages.What are the possible reasons for this and what steps should i take to correct this...

The times I've phoned up (various) Audi dealerships to find out the price of a part, they seem to have been reluctant to give out the part number. Anyone know why this is the case? Is this just a UK problem?

Hello all, I just picked up an 86 5000 CS Quattro Turbo. I have never owned on of these before, but it looks like a great car! Can anyone provide some insight on maintenance ( e.g. Timing Belt replacement, fluid changes, etc) or known problems I should look out for? Thanks!

Ok, I just purchased a '98 A6 with 120k. I'm wondering if there is a way to tell when the last time it had the timing belt changed? Would car fax show that kind of information? Would there be any other tell tale signs on the car (probably not, but I thought I'd ask). Thanks, B

I have a 2000 A6 Quattro and am finding a correlation between the weather and the functioning of my car. Currently, I am getting the following errors: ABS - Brake - Check Engine/ The ABS and Brake lites come on and occasionally go off again. The Check Engine seems to come on and stays on. I...

I have a 1990 Audio model 80 and the outer door handle has disconnected from the linkage inside. I need to figure out exactly how to open the door panel without damaging it. All I've found so far is four screws and I'm sure I'm missing something because that didn't let the door panel come off. :)...

I put some diesel fuel injection cleaner into my 300d t-diesel and its ideling allot quieter. is this a sign of a problem or does this sound normal? i have noticed a decrease in start time and an increase in miles per gallon (running...

I have a misfire on my Audi A6 2.7t Quattro. It started on Cyl #3 and 4. I put in some fuel injector cleaner and replaced the plugs and Cyl #3 misfire went away. I replaced the coils on Cyl #3 and #4 but it still misfires. This is a very strange misfire. It misfires at idle, off idle and under load...

Here are some new spy shots of the Q5. No black tape in these pics. Looks better than the X3 that it is up against. See http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/spyshots/210551/audi_q5.html -------------------------------------- More Audi News: http://www.carshops247.co.uk/news/Audi.html

I really need to put new sneakers on my 98.5 A4Q this week if possible, and I'm not sure which all-season tires to buy. I'm in western New York, on Lake Ontario, and have sold my extra rims so I won't be running winter tires this year (not sure how much longer I'll keep the car). Can folks...
