Default Don't quote me but parts and labor are going to run you $1,200 - $1,500 I think.

So you know on the B6s the key service intervals are every 20,000 (20K, 40K 60K, 80K, etc.) So if the car you are looking to buy was properly maintained by its previous owner for your 90K service Audi recommends the following:
> Run VAG diagnostic for fault codes
> oil and oil filter be replaced
> check coolant level, add if necessary
> Lubricate door hinges
> Check exhaust system for damage/leaks
> Check all fluids, wiper, transmission, brake fluid, etc.
> Check brake system for damage/leaks, thickness of pads
> Check drive shaft boots
> Check lights
They should road test it at 90K checking brake, kick down, steering, electrical, HVAC, power accesories.

Default if already done at 60, no need to do it again at 90..

costs 1200+ at a dealer, so get it done at a trustworthy independent shop for around $600.

Default fuel pump is the next big question mark..

ask when it was replaced, if at all. these have been another big issue with the B6.

If it was done at 60K no need to have it done at 90K. Are you looking at a 1.8T or 3.0?

Default I would think at least a 600.

If you should have any questions regarding credit. Shoot me an email and I'll discuss it with you. I deal with credit issues and help repair scores if people are willing to work at it all the time.
