On a 1994 car, you will have the old 2 X 2 diagnostics connector -
probably located within the fuse box. My colleague's 1995 A6 Avant is
certainly equipped in this way.

Only with the optional 2x2 adapter, like the one he

The two small black and white connectors plug into the mating sockets on
your car.

OBDII was part of US model spec for 96 onwards.

shipped with it in '95
