1994 Audi 100 E review from Australia and New Zealand
"High quality, good value luxury car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ignition switch needed replacing.
Gear position indicator in the dashboard - light bulb blown, haven't replaced as this is apparently quite a complicated job.
Required 2 new oxygen sensors to rectify a stalling fault. Car would stall for no apparent reason when revs dropped to idle, for example slowing to stop at lights, breaking to turn a slow corner in town - have heard of this happening on other people's cars.
General comments?
Underrated luxury car with all the standard equipment that you would expect; excellent high speed, long distance cruiser with superb build quality.
A bit slow off the mark; V6 requires a firm boot to move the relatively heavy body from rest, however once the revs are up it accelerates strongly.
Good handling for a large car, absence of adjustable steering wheel on this type of car is very strange.
