hi,my name is mark i am in the market for a car this coming spring. i have always had north american cars from the big 3 and always liked Audi. my question is what is the best year(i will buy used) for the a4/a6 i would be looking for a auto and awd it seems the auto trans has issues also timing belts as well which i understand is part of maintainance. i have read some reports but they seem conflicting so i thought the best place to ask would be a forum full of people that love these cars. any help would be great. thanks
