My experiences with secondary warranties has been poor and I see in the forums so many similar problems with CPO. Perhaps for people attracted to the donuts at the dealer. Sorry, not meant to offend. I have fought with too many insurance companies, and cpo is just insurance.

I strongly agree about the effort an audi takes to maintain compared to a Maverick (or my Olds 442 in 68). Many come here looking for instant quick, cheap fixes with a diagnoses of: it hums.

Helped a friend's son do a pre purchase inspection recently on a nice BMW 3. Oil did not touch the dip stick. Owner said confidently: you don't need to check the oil between oil changes anymore. When I suggested otherwise, particularly for an engine with 75k, he called me a liar.

Can't fix stupid.

There are days I think you would be crazy missing a 2.7t and days not. I kept my 2.7t = 03 AR 6mt - wife now drives it and Loves It. Up Vail Pass (10,000 ft) at 100 in 6th. Her only complaint: burns a lot more gas than her Passat --

With 125k/11yrs on the AR, needed a newer car for primary. Just bought an 11 A6 Avant 3.0T. Still under warranty. Nothing to do on it, so when I get bored, ALWAYS something to do on the 2.7t AR.

Are you near Columbus?

I'm sorry I meant a former AW member 2.7Lturbo most of the timers remember him and most others couldn't forget, he certainly didn't hold back on opinions.

To the OP: Sorry, much like Worldwidebeagle, I have ZERO useful information which might help you solve a problem which I am positive is infinitely more frustrating than some simple spelling mistakes. Good luck on your quest for a solution, and don't let the grammar ***** get ya down... LOL!
