I am thinking of buying a 2004 Audi A6 avant with 165k miles ....1.9tdi (130bhp). I had a 2008 2.0tdi A6 avant 6 speed manual and regret selling it. The 2004 A6 Avant 1.9tdi has had a lot of money spent on it in the past 12 months front brake calipers, discs and pads. Full service oil, oil filter, diesel filter, air filter, pollen filter. Cambelt, tensioners, water pump. Coolant, egr valve, shock absorbers front and rear. As its an automatic it's had the gearbox serviced twice once at 70k miles and once at 140k. It's dark blue and has a tan leather interior. Air con has been serviced and works well. My only concern is the auto box.? Should I bite the bullet and buy it..the owner is asking £1850 no offers. What do I need to look out for? Cheers Nomi64

Thanks for the reply.. Its appreciate. Seems to be running fine at the minute. Its a 1999 model face-lift A4 petrol 1.8 manual. 12 months mot 2 new tyres New exhaust Mint condition 117k miles I paid £507 Then spent £135 on a full service. I just need to change the petrol filter. Road was £145 for 6 months. Its a good car. Central locking is not working and srs airbag light is on in the dash.. But not the passenger side one near the rear view mirror. Front electric windows work. Alloys are clean. Interior is mint. Good car for the price.

Thanks for the explanation. Makes sense. Cheers.

How is the front engine mount related to misfiring? Please enlighten?

I have a 1999 model 1.8 petrol A4 b5 saloon; again it's full Audi service history.. I serviced it myself 3 days ago, as its 20 years old not worth taking to the stealer ship anymore..my car is hesitant under acceleration and misfires when reved past 4k..any ideas? I didn't change the fuel filter. And maybe I should check all the earth connections.
