Re: Calling A6 Owners...
thanks !! had another question..i've heard ther are some reputable body shops..(independent tuning & h2motorsport &mittler), are they cheaper than the dealers for doing regular servicing? i some how feel the dealership does provide quality, but aren't cost effective..please advice..

Re: Calling A6 Owners...
Hey,
Just bought this beast not too long along ago..
2001 A6 TIP
K04
RS4 SMIC
KONI shocks(rear driver's is leaking)
BLISTEN lowering springs (3" lower? it's actually too low!)
Upgraded Diverter Valves(?)
stage 2 S4 breakes?(nothing like stoptech but way better then stock)
REVO stage 2-3 chip
TIP CHIP (GIAC?)
235/40/18 Sumitomo HTR Z III (came with KUMHO ECSTA ASX which i think are horrible..ughh..)
It was either the FK 452 by Falken or the HTR Z 3 and it was cheaper and they actually own falken so i decided to go with that, since the place that did them said they are what most 911 T's drive off with! can't be that bad!
300whp w/ dyno (anyone know what that would be bhp?)
the worst part i'd say is the suspension atm, which im sure is not helped by the rear driver shock being shot, or the extreme lowering "racing"? springs in there, but hey I got a good deal so whatever, when i have some cash i want to get coilovers,full exhaust, headers, dp, fueling (which im not sure if the previous owner did or not, 300whp seems to me he did not...) and deffinetly stoptech breakes.
But it is very fast and fun, i've made a few M3's MAD haha
they just can't belive that a lil 2.7 V6 is taking their fire breathing V8's haha , and once i took a Ferrari, I swear 
hahaha really 
first day I owned this beast actually! 
soon after I had my first boost leak
haha "welcome to the club" i bet some of you are thinking haha

Re: Calling A6 Owners...
Hey, We just got a 2004 Audi A6 Quattro, 3.0L loaded, winter pkg, prem. pkg, this car is mint. Midnight Blue, Lt peuter leather, 80K. paid $19,750 just over a month ago. I love driving this car. had minor oil leak (didn't tighten the drain plug enough) no complaints otherwise. Looking to get a Bentley manual and my own VAG-COM scanner. I'd also like to get a remote starter/alarm, window tint and an in-line coolant heater. Christmas is coming soon!

Hey Guys and Gals!
Just got my A6 4.2L widebody Nov.1/08!! Love the car..it's silver in colour and fully loaded of course...looking to start the mods right away over the winter..want to drop it, install a set of 19x 8.5 Fr and 19x9.5 Rr wheels/tires as soon as I find the right ones, and reprograme the ECU...
