    2.0 TDI 140 coolant usage

    Ooops, had the same problem many many times and recorded this with Audi. I filled myself many time but always bought the coolant from the dealer as a way of recording this. Eventually, I stopped this practice and just took it to them every time as it was still under warranty. I ended up having...

    A6 performance enhancement!

    I'd say go for it. I did on my 2.0 tdi and gained around 40bhp. I got my ECU remapped from around 500 miles, essentially new and now at 67k with no problems to report. With the 3.0 you're more likely to be looking at around 56bhp increase. Go get those extra horses

    Hi All, just put the A6 in today for her first MOT at 3 years and 67k miles. As some of you may know, I've had a few problems with her, but to be fair, Audi has stepped up time and again ( with more than a little push here n there of course) Anyhow, last week I noticed the 2 rear tyres were...
