Audi A6 / Audi A6

Presented in 2018 fifth generation Audi. A6 (C8 index) retains a constant dynamic image characteristic of Ingolstadt sedans. According to the dimensions of the "A-Six" new generation adheres former Frames - Changes carry a purely symbolic character (+ 6 mm in length, 2 mm increase in width and height, the base of the wheels was further stretched, the baggage compartment remained unchanged - 530 liters). As a platform on Audi A6, a modular MLB EVO is used with a 2-lever layout in front and a 5-lever back. Body engineers made more rigid, it is still used steel and aluminum components. Continuity in design is evident. Carefully revised only front lighting, rear parking lights and bumpers, many other style solutions resemble previous generation Premium sedan.

New generation of business sedana Audi. A6 exceeded its predecessor in terms of electronic innovation and equipping. The interior is traced similarity with the Audi A7 Sportback, shown earlier. Keywords In the management of the main functions of the car are allocated with touch control displays (Screen multimedia system 10.1 inches, located below the touchscreen climate system by 8.6 inches), the usual buttons are minimized. In addition, instead of the traditional analog instrument panel, a virtual cockpit with a 12.3-inch high-resolution display (optional) can be installed. Everything power plants Audi A6 use Mild Hybrid microhybrid technology, which uses a combined starter generator to improve the dynamics and fuel economy. In addition, with the help of such a system, the car is able to completely disconnect the engine when the gas is discharged from 55 km per hour, while the onboard electronics uses power from the lithium-ion battery.

In our country, the Audi A6 business sedan is offered to buyers in 4 equipment lines: basic, advance, design and sport.

The love of our car enthusiasts to the representative German sedans are truly limitless. And if someone lacks funds on new car, he will certainly postpone and sooner or later, but buy a used "German." But is there any point in this? After all, not only is the representatives of the roads in themselves, so also low costs They do not assume repair and maintenance. Or is everything not so scary? Let's try to deal with the example of the Audi A6 in the C6 body, which without any exaggeration can be called one of the most popular cars in this class. In our review, we will do the focus not at the advantages of AUDI A6 C6, which are plenty, and on the description possible problemswhich may arise from the owner of the used German car.

Body and Salon

Organization indoor space It can only be characterized by one word - amazing! As a result of the location of the engine in front of the front axle, and not behind it, in the depth of the body, as in BMW, it was possible to get a huge interior. The lack of such a layout is a big front svel, because of which many drivers damage the front bumper during parking high borders.

A6 has the largest trunk in its class - 555 liters, while in BMW it is less than 35 liters, and in Mercedes - by 15 liters. Audi trunk form is more correct. Under the floor there was a place for a full-sized spare wheel and rechargeable batterymounted on the right side.

In the case of Audi, it is not necessary to be afraid of the appearance of rust. Ingolstadt cars are famous for their good protection against corrosion, "double galvanized" sheet metal, and the body elements of the front of the A6 C6 are made of aluminum, like BMW 5 E60 series. If the "red-hot spots", especially on the hood, wings and lid of the trunk, will be detected during the inspection, then you can be sure about the car with an accident in the past. It was the hood and wings initially been made entirely of aluminum, which is not subject to corrosion. Often, after damage, cheap alternative substitutes from a healed sheet metal are installed.

AUDI A6 C6 Engine Problems

Motors for Audi A6 C6 were offered a lot, but gasoline units with direct injection FUEL FSI (2.4; 3.2; 4.2 liters) it is better to avoid the party. The aluminum block of these engines has a special coating, which, with time, under the action of high temperatures, begins to collapse, which leads to jams on the walls of the cylinders. As a result, oil consumption increases, the engine begins to work more noisy and with elevated vibrations. The power decreases. At the same time, to navigate for some mileage when buying a car with an FSI engine will not work.

Some owners faced the first challenges only after 200 thousand kilometers, but if you look at the statistics, it turns out that on average, these high-tech engines are leaving about 120-150 thousand kilometers. Yes, and in addition to the short-lived covering, there are enough problems. The same volume unit of 3.2 liters is sadly famous for the fact that the chain in its gas distribution mechanism after 100-120 thousand mileage kilometers began to stretch, which required its replacement immediately. And this, due to its best availability, is quite expensive.

So it is better to look at cars with a 2.8 liter gasoline unit, which develops 190 horse power. This unit is also very technological, but there is less problems with it. Although he also loves high-quality and timely service. Without it for trouble-free long work Do not even count. But it is even better to find a car with a simple and reliable atmospheric three-liter gasoline engine. But note that on cars that were released after 2008, this unit was no longer established. In it every 100 thousand kilometers will have to change the belt in the mechanism of gas distribution. And it is quite difficult to make it, because for its replacement you have to disassemble almost half of the front of the car.

Also on this engine Every 90,000 kilometers will have to change coils, and after 150 thousand mileage kilometers fight with the lenges and leaks of antifreeze from under the block head gasket. Approximately the same mileage engine begins to consume oil. So do not forget to monitor its level. But in any case, it seems that this engine seems the optimal choice for used Audi A6 C6.

Diesel engine Audi A6 C6

Diesel engines on the background petrol aggregates It looks even more interesting, but it is unlikely that someone will be able to vouch that on our diesel fuel They will work trouble-free. It is not excluded that very expensive fuel injectors for you turn into consumables. Yes, and runs diesel cars From Europe are very high. So be prepared that immediately after buying Audi A6 with turbo diesel engine You will have to change the costly turbine, which usually fails to get 250-300 thousand kilometers. By the same moment will require the replacement chain in the mechanism of gas distribution. So in the case of the used Audi A6 with a diesel engine, it will not be possible to save on the fuel. All saving time will be crossed by one serious breakdown.

Chassis

Aluminum parts are used in the suspension. For example, the front bottom cross levers. The suspension has a complex multi-line design that for this class The usual thing. However, chassis elements wear out too quickly. Front hub bearings May be checked after 100-120 thousand km.

As options in A6 offered air suspension with the possibility of changing clearance (included in basic equipment Allroad models). Pneumatic suspension of reliable analogue of Mercedes, but do not forget that when it comes to replacing shock absorbers with built-in pneumatic elements, then a 5-digit account will be given in the official service.

Audi A6 is able to surprise very efficient brakes, but the front brake discs And the pads quickly produce their resource. And the cost of replacing you will certainly disappoint. Electric parking brake entered serial equipment. The output of it is a common phenomenon.

Electronics

All cars are equipped with the Multi Media Interface system - short MMI. This is an integrated onboard electronics system with a display on the center console and the controller between the front seats. There are several types of its varieties: 2G Basic, 2G High, and after restyling 3G with navigation, DVD and hard disk. MMI does not allow to control as many nodes as idrive in BMW. The Audi driver can only find out how soon he needs to appear on maintenance. However, using the diagnostic interface, you can unlock hidden capabilities, for example, the determination of the oil level or battery voltage. Using VAG-COM or VCDS it is quite realistic to independently change many parameters of various devices. However, without the appropriate knowledge, it is easy to bring a car to full blocking.

In the copies produced in the early years, the MMI system sometimes freezes. In this case, the installation of a new one often helps software. But sometimes without a visit to the specialized service, it is still not to do.

Transmission

With big alert, you need to approach the automatic gearbox check. The least stable is the stepless Multitronic transmission, which is present only in cars with a drive on the front axle. Problems with variator may arise after 100,000 km. Much reliable tiptronic machine with a classic hydrotransformer, which was used in quattro all-wheel drive modifications.

Audi argues that it is not necessary to change the oil in the box, but it is incorrect. Without replacing oil automatic boxes A maximum of up to 200-250 thousand km is reached, and Multitronic ends even earlier.

Operation and expenses

Compared to A6 C5, access to the spare parts of the C6 model is worse, and the prices for them are higher. In particular, it is more difficult to find spare parts for a restyled version. Her typical problem - Fulling LED lights (LED) in headlights. Apparently the engineers considered that they would be eternal, once did not provide for the possibility of replacing LEDs separately from the headlight.

Unfortunately, it is necessary to admit that the Audi A6 C6 image is a bit overvalued. Some copies constantly annoy faults, especially cars of the initial production period. Buy a good A6 for 400-500 thousand rubles quite real, but it is unlikely that it will fully satisfy the owner in the future. Only cars after restyling in 2008 became thoughtful and more reliable. Worst of all that many faults do not protect neither small mileage, nor regular visits to the dealer station maintenance.

While Audi A6 would not break, it is difficult to find serious shortcomings. Excellent decoration, rich equipment and the most spacious salon in the class cause a real delight. The interior looks great without signs of fatigue even after two three hundred thousand kilometers of run. It is very pleased with any kind of merchants who, without any concern, wipe the mileage counter back at 100-200 thousand km.

Positive emotions add powerful engines and system full drive Quattro. However, significant defects are concerned. diesel enginesThe probability of the manifestation of which grows with an increase in the mileage.
