ModuleMasters can rebuild the ABS for a reasonable price. Google them.

 

There are companies that rebuild ABS modules?? Why cuz they are 1200$. Its a design flaw and Audi should pay one time each one that goes back. Absolute Joke. This guy has a 99 with a bad one mine is an 05. Probably 7 or 8 years of bad ones. Are u kidding me. German Engineering. Lol German highway robbery. Ill buy Japanese from now on thanks. Good luck all

 

103,000 on my 2008 A6 3.2.. Runs the same as it did the day I took it off the lot

 

I have a 1999 a6quattro 2.7. 174000 mi. Sold it over a year ago, running great. Buyers check bounced. Had to wait a year to get it back b/c buyers bankruptcy. Now no brakes. He didn't drive it. What could cause brakes to go out when it's not being driven?? Any ideas from the people in the know?

 

On my 1998 A6 I sold it with 297900 miles on it to a good friend. He put all new control arms in the front and gave it to his younger sister and she totaled it at 306000

 

Just wait
Till your abs sensor goes out. Got 2500k laying around? And will fail. Its not its when. Mine went at 180k miles. 07 Quattro 3.2. Total rip off only bosch makes them new

 

Thanks for the heads up, naturalscience42. I'm hoping to run the A6 until 200K and then downsize to an A3 or A4 (retired by then). I had an Audi mechanic say to me "..everything is expensive on this car...! I believe it

 

Get one with a warranty. Im going with certified used from now on. Wayyyy cheaper than new but still have the full warranty. My engine and tranny are second to none. Silky smooth awesome runner. Its the electronics that kill your wallet

 

I bought my 1999 A6 Avant (not running) last Thanksgiving with 368,000 miles on the original engine and transmission. I replaced the drivetrain and it's still going strong!

 

After reading about and driving Audis for years imo the best motor they ever built was the 2.7T
Just my opinion. I have the 3.2 DI. Lets see how far it goes. So far 170k
