Re: Torque Converter [Mr_Shiftright]

Thank you for the quick reply. No...it is not a 2.7T. It is a 3.0 (2002 A6). I appreciate the advice and I will sit tight. That seems to be the consensus of the Audi experts that don't stand to make a quick $2k off me!!! Thanks, Keith Read More...

Torque Converter

Written by: kealbert on Dec 02, 2008 04:56 PM

I am very confused and I hope that someone out there has some good advice for me. Here is my issue....I brought my 2002 Audi A6 to the dealer several weeks ago b/c my engine light was on. They said I had two problems. (1) A coolant sensor had to be replaced...no problem and (2) I needed a new torque converter...it could be done for $2000. GULP!!!! I initially declined ...

Nothing in a can is going to save you I'm very sorry to say, and it's not a very easy repair DIY either. Of course I don't know your skill level with tools, mechanicals, etc. RE: Flickering oil light -- I believe on the A6 there is a high rpm oil light and a low rpm oil light, so I'd suspect a bad sensor. You don't have the 1.8T engine so sludge should not be an issue for you. Read More...

2002 Audi A6 Quatro

Written by: rcrocker on Sep 25, 2008 02:43 PM

I have a 2002 A6 that has either blown head gaskets on both banks or a combination of blown gaskets and cracked heads. Has anyone had experiance repairing this with products like "Thermagasket". Or is the repair easily done yourself with a repair manual? Shop estimates range from $1900 to $5000 to repair. Read More...

Re: 05 CPO A6 [ipod_nano]

Written by: erickpl on Sep 23, 2008 01:41 PM

1. Not really. After the initial warranty, you pretty much foot the bill. BMW's CPO program and 100k warranty is IMO much stronger (previously own 2002 325xi and 2005 645ci). 2. It can. You using the button to start or the key? button start seems a bit flaky on ours. 3. I'd probably change oil yourself, just for peace of mind. I use Mobil 1 or Castrol (both meet VW/Audi ...

Audi A6 Tires and Wheels

Why do I feel unsafe?

Written by: hungryford on Aug 23, 2008 10:22 PM

Audi 2002 A6 4.2 sports suspension, 17 inch rims. 6 hours ago, I replaced my semi-bald standard 255 Z 40 tires with 4 new 235 Y 45 tires from Bridgestone (their rain racing tires, I am told--I live in rain country). I took these brand new tires immediately up to freeway speeds and felt a lot of sway and oversteer that me feel unsafe. I am ready to go back and replace them ... Read More...

Re: Ignition Coils? [chrisaudi]

Written by: wkbarth on Jun 12, 2008 11:01 AM

My advice is to sell...I have been going through the same thing-starting with having to replace the ignition coils (for the second time) and am now replacing the torque converter and am being told to expect the electronics for the ABS to be next (a $1500 item). I have a 2002 A6-granted not the same "animal" as yours, but from what I'm being told, once it starts to go, ... Read More...
