1998 Audi A6 Sedan review from North America
"Too expensive for the overall experience"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Big "thump" experienced on even slight and easy acceleration after slowing down. It is not there if you come to a complete halt.
Despite the recall on the fuel gauge, I still experienced running out of gas with my "miles to empty" at 180, the second time at 80.
Rattling sound somewhere from the rear driver's side seat.
Low air dam, it caught even the lowest parking lot cement blocks.
General comments?
Awesome car in the rain or snow.
Poor acceleration.
