what's up guys?
Looking to buy an A6 for the winter, noticed they're relativly cheap with some miles and i'v always loved that style..
Probably gonna go with a 2.7t debating over manual or auto though....
All i'm really worried about is this thing getting me into the summer with little to no problems.
Are the manuals more durable then the autos?
How long do the turbos last and is there anyway to tell how new they are?How much would it cost if i blew them?
Are there any other common problems i should look for?
Thanks in advance guys...i plan on getting an m3 in the summer and just need something for the next couple months. So far the list is the A6, 328Ci and a Range Rover 4.6hse(this being at the bottom of the list due to gas and these things don't exactly have a reliable reputation...they're awesome when they work though)
