Hi,
I'm planning to buy '96 US model Audi A4 2.8V6 Quattro. The car I'm looking at seems to be in quite a good condition, but because I'm new to Audi's I'd like to know if there are any special issues that I should be aware of. The car has been driven 100kmiles, so it's pretty low mileage for European car. Is there any special problems or service that I should be aware of?
Does Quattro AWD system require some special service? Is there any problems related to it, that I should check?
How often do you need to change front/rear differential oils? How about transmission?
What is timing belt change interval in 2.8 V6? My European friends say it's
90tkm, but is it the same in US models (55kmiles)? If so, I guess timing belt is due in this car pretty soon. How much does timing belt change typically cost? I have heard some horror stories of 1000USD ... Does that sound likely?Depending on the source, '96 Audi's 2.8 V6 is said to have either 170hp or
192hp. Which one is correct?- Juha -
