2012 Audi A6 3.0T Premium quattro 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl S/C 8A)
9 of 10 people found this review helpful
I have owned Audi's in years past, and my 2012 A6 (Prestige 3.0 Supercharged V6) shows how intensely the brand intends to play against global competitors. The car has a very modern exterior view, embodied most in the LED headlights and aggressive front. The interior has a tight, modern aesthetic that feels very comfortable to occupy. I deleted sport options on my ordered vehicle, and the ride on the 18" wheels is palatial on rougher New England roads while still being tight and making a fairly heavy car feel very nimble and spry. Excellent MPG for the effortless, continuous power available. Whisper quiet at 85MPH. BOSE stereo is clean but could use more punch. Flawless snow performance.
Loving my car, but...

WOW!!! That was my 1st impression of this car. The car looks nice on the outside and looks stunning on the inside. After testing driving the 2013 Cadillac XTS, I was real close to buying it but for some reason I kept looking at the 2012 A6 and I'm glad that I did. I'm coming out of a 2008 Infiniti M35 and driving the new A6 was night and day. The Audi has a great car on their hands. I'm loving it so far but the car is lacking some feature that my M35 had. You can not control the a/c by voice, no remote start, no remote power windows up or down option and to get a power steering wheel you have to get the prestige package. Tons of room in this car. Besides those minor things I LOVE THIS CAR.

My baby on her deathbed

2012 A6 3.0 - was running perfect up until two weeks ago (October 2022). Turned her on to massive shaking/vibrations throughout the car and a check engine light. Zero warning signs up to this point. After multiple mechanics looking into it (including Audi dealership), turns out I lost cylinder #4, and she's misfiring bad. Both intake manifolds have so much carbon build up that the rail flaps will not open at the 4000 rpm threshold. So my supercharged car no longer drives like an Audi - it now drives like a 4 cylinder Kia. After some few basic fixes, she is driveable, but she's on her deathbed. The value of the car is not worth the true fix required. After $3k, another $6k is the estimate for the manifolds. This is my second A6 and this surprise problem puts a hole in my heart. Considering switching brands :( I had fun while it lasted.

This car has been owned for 6000 miles now. It has all of the features one could ask for, including an incredible sound system Bose 14 speaker system. The prestige model adds the S line exterior and really sets the front end apart from the other models. Gas consumption is a combined 25mpg. It can go from a comfort cruiser to a rocket with a few button pushs and a flick of the wrist to shift into sport mode. What is so incredible about this car is it seems like it is two cars in one when you make the adjustments from comfort to sport. Interior is top notch and so far squeak and rattles are non existent. The normal suspesion is pretty stiff on its own (which I like). Good control!

I bought an abused example. I had to sort out a few minor leaks, and basic maintenance for the years of neglect. However, in 2020 my 2012 Audi A6 3.0T still rivals many new cars. People think its nicer and more expensive then it is. I have driven it on a 3500 mile road trip and it gave me no problems. This car came with no service history, a check engine light and a leaky undercarriage. I sorted all this (DIY at home) and its a blast to own and drive. After 139,830 miles, the interior has held up, the car starts every time and drives like it did new. I believe if you know someone to help with the maintenance costs (independent mechanic) or if you don't mind turning wrenches, this car is great. Yes Toyota and Honda (which we own as our main family cars) are more reliable and cheaper to work on. There is not a single car that is the full package like this one. Safe for family, great for driving and I mean truly driving, amazing in snow and still gets compliments.
