I’m looking at buying a 2000 Audi a6 with a 2.7T with a 6 speed with around 100,000 miles on the body. However, the motor is not the original one and was swapped in after the original motor snapped the timing belt. The new motor was installed and then the car sat for a while. The problem it now has is that the cluster doesn’t work and when shifting it makes a beeping sound. Also you can’t get any readings from the obd port. Any ideas or should i run from this project. I do have experience in other turbo cars and doing motor swaps and installs however I have never worked on an Audi, so any ideas of suggestion would be greatly appreciated, Thanks

RUN. Older Audis are expensive enough when oem. This one sounds like a money pit that will never run correctly.
