Used 2003 Audi A6 Sedan Consumer Reviews
Great Car but tire choice critical
Driving an A-6 4.2 is a great experience. The car is fast, handles well and is an all-around first class sedan. But for those of us living in the snow belt, the choice of tires can be critical. The 17" Perelli's have been trouble. I have experiences three damaged tires and two bent rims in the last couple of years. The lower profile, 17" 235-45 tires simply do not offer much cushion against road hazards. Even the Audi website (in the fine print) suggests that "sport" tires require a special decision. I'll probably buy another Audi - it's a great car - but my choice of tires will be different.
May be a Mistake
I just bought an Audi A6 2.7T 2003, and I think I made a mistake. After only having the vehicle for 2wks I need a torque converter, mass air flow, battery, and the tiptronic is failing; $3,275.00 to fix! and they say there may be more to do once the mechanics are in there. Kinda pricey to maintain but going to make it mine and fix it up like it's a classic!

Still going strong!
I literally don’t have anything bad to say about my Audi! It’s at over 153,000 miles and the only issue it just had was that the oil pan cracked and leaked. I have a 3rd party warranty company so they paid 50% of the cost and I only paid $193 for replacement. Doing wayy better and cheaper than my ford did. No regrets

An honest review on Audi A6 3.0 Quattro
I had this car for 6 months now. I bought it with 48 K miles now I have 60 K. I love the exterior of the car and the interior. After never having a car with AWD, I do not know how I lived without it. I was scared to buy this car first because of electrical problems but so far so good. No problems with the car so far (knock on wood). It feels solid and handles well. Some little things that bothered me are when the annoying sound and display of low wind washer fluid, it's half of the screen, some paint in the interior of the car chips off, gas mileage isn't that great, doesn't hold value.
Lots of bang for lots of bucks
When I went shopping for cars this summer, my wife was not enthusiastic. Our old car was fine. It ran, didn't have too many problems, what more could we want? Then she test drove the Audi A6. She immediately fell in love with it as much as I had. It's FAST, it's comfortable, and it looks good. I've heard some people complain that Audis can be unreliable, but I haven't had any problems in the 6 months that I've had this car. The only drawback is that the turbo sucks gas like it's going out of style. It would also be nice if Audi could design some real cup holders. Other than that, both my wife and I LOVE this car.
