[s-cars] (LAC) 2000 A6

[paul]

Matt,

I've got a '99 A6 Avant and the issues that have come up:

- Control Arms.  They get noisy over time.  Have him go over some rough
roads at low speeds and listen for a squeak (sorta like delrin bushings).
Very common problem.  Mine started making noise around 60k miles.
- Computer display between the speedo and tach.  Drive the car at night and
look for a "fading" around the edges of the display.  The whole guage
cluster has to be replaced if this is an issue.  Even if it's minor get it
taken care of.

Other than that, the car's been pretty good and the wife enjoys it.   More
reliable than my '90 CQ.
