Welcome to the forum David, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂
You're correct, dealers don't have to tax their vehicles so it's probably been sat a little while.
Hope you're pleased with your a3 saloon 🙂
Cheers

They should fit. But personally I'd keep the original wheels and refurb them. Especially due to the story behind your a6. What wheels have you got on it currently?
Cheers

If you can call.audi and see what history they have on it as a start. Is this happening when the engine is hot or cold? How long do you drive before it starts to happen? What speed are you going when it happens is from x speed to stop?
Cheers
Steve

It's a swirl flap motor issue which I believe is an expensive fix unfortunately.

If it's with Audi then you have the right to a courtesy car, providing you book in advance for one. As it's under warranty, I would keep at them untill it's fixed.
Very common on holder vag cars. Check the Skittles panel in the engine bay. Drain holds could be blocked with muck abd leaves. If battery situated there, check the battery tray as the drain holes are probably blocked.
It's definitely worth getting a diagnostic check carried out to see if there are any fault codes stored. If any blades from the turbo have broken off then it could cause the turbo to be intermittent.
