Default New 02 A6 3.0 owner, Need to Be Aware of??

Hello Everyone

I am a new A6 owner. I just picked up a 02 3.0 with 67k on it. What do I need to be aware of as far as maintance, costs, etc. I have read in these forums that audi's are not low maintance vehiles, what do they mean by that??

Thank you for all of your help.

The 3.0L doesn't have that many problems. Just make sure to do the PM at 80k
including: Timing belt, water pump, thermostat, plugs, and coil packs on the 3.0L. The coil packs suck on the 3.0L and generally cause a miss-fire, which in turn takes out the cats.
The cats are $1,000 a piece so you want to avoid that.
