99 A6 Avant 2.5TDI - 125k miles
Bougth it at around 80-90k miles. Don't know of any repairs done before that time.
In my time:
-Mirror adjustment **** broken by the son of previous owner, after I had test-driven it, but before I took delivery.
-A couple of visits to the garage to have the AC "cleared", it would lock up and require resetting by connecting a computer to it.
-Sometimes it will not go over 2k rpm/70 km/h, I've been told it is the transmission that kills power when the torque is too great. Have to turn the car off to clear it.
Will probably exchange for A8 2.5TDI in a few years.
