great stuff, i need helo with my audi 01 2.7t quattro tiptronic, it needs some work, please help, i will travel to you if necessarry, someone who loves to work on these cars is what i need

 

Hello Guys,

Just bought a 2003 A6 2.7 w/93K miles

This thread was very helpful.

In particular, the link to the Timing belt, water pump kit from FCP Groton.

I'll check the VIN with the dealer but I'don't think the belt has been replaced...

Is the Belt and pump replacement something an "Experienced Tinker" can handle?

Thanks

I look forward to sharing experiences and suggestions...

 

also keep your eye out for failed coil packs after you do the 75,000 mile service. it seems to be a common occurence for them to go out after being removed and reset.

- '04 2.7T S-Line

 

thanks for the advice.
2001 A6 2.7T

 

Sorry this may be in a wrong post but i did not find where i add a new thread. Anyway, i have an A6 2.7T 2002 with 97,000 and have a need to replace all four rotors. Now shopping around online i found that there are two different type out there ones that fit with 2-piston caliper and ones with 1-piston caliper. How do i find out which one i need for my A6 Quattro 2.7T 2002 year model. Please advice..

 

Hi all again! I own 2004 2.7T S-line, as some of you i had also Check/Engine-Missfire in cylinders very often,I hadn't enough money to serve my car to change coil packs such often (60 dollars local price)...Once i changed all 6 of new Beck/Arnley coil packs, but it didn't help, after some time i had CEL and shaking car again, sometimes CEL was blinking after pushing the gas pedal to the end or so...and after several seconds disappeared...
I couldn't find problem for a long time,and once "fortunately" my cars alternator Relay worked out, while changing it turned out that all alternator diodes worked out as well,after repair I've run 3.000 miles and i'm glad that have't seen any CEL blinking on dashboard... Do you think these electrical parts could caused coil pack damage???? thanks

i recently bought a 2001 A6 that now has 127,000 it was a two owner car one being a mitltary commander and the other an older couple that had three a6's they always used a certified shop for repairs but i am not forsure if the shop replaced timing belt or not do u think that i should replace it anyways? have not had a bit of trouble out of it but would like to mod it up a lil the turbos are real quit and dont seem to spool very fast dont really feel them untill around 60mph other than 1st gear any thoughts?? thanks for the info...

 

Bump for a great post!!

 

A6 with all maintenance taken care of with 198,500 miles on it still going strong.

 

Id just like to say HELLO! New Audi A6 2.7t tiptronic Quattro owner.

Went to buy a 97 XK8 convertible w/ 88k miles on it in amazing shape[thinking with my ...groin] and a few issues gave me warning lights. Then while considering the Jag and if Id be willing to get them handled or if I could wrangle the dealership into taking care of them while leaving room to haggle...I saw something that was more along the lines of what I had been looking for in the first place[luxo 4 door sports sedan]

2001 Audi DARK blue no visible flaws....saw the 2.7t and Quattro....had to look....
Interior IMMACULATE! Everything worked...seats looked like theyd barely been used...
First aid kit in the back still and unopened...decided to drive it. Fell in love. Then I found the deciding factor...a stack of all maintenance records and receipts for everything that had been done on the car since the original owner purchased it.

I had no idea how great that car would feel when driving...I TRIED to find something wrong with this 124k mile car. Nothing.

Im pretty pleased. Glad I found this forum and this guide! ordering the DPs tomorrow. Hopefully I can enjoy this car for some time to come. I work from home so it MIGHT see 5-7k miles a year on it. And from what ive seen the performance options and paths for this car can make it a real sleeper sports sedan....surprise some people when I feel like showing of a tad.
