- Help us grow so we can bring you more videos! Like us on Facebook @ / 2redline A classy, elegant, and timeless luxury sedan. Audi's second-generation A6 quickly brought the Audi brand back to the same level as its Germans competitors. As a mid-size executive luxury sedan, the A6 excels at coddling its occupants in a quiet cabin with a compliant ride. Those seeking a vehicle to attack twisty roads like a sport sedan may be better served to the BMW or Infiniti.

Ever since it came out in 2005, it has been my childhood dream car... I still can't get over the fact that Audi cheaps out some options for the US spec models like parking sensors for front and rear, rear sun shade, rear entertainment where those really should be standard on an executive luxury sedan.
I literally do not know much about cars and I’m about to make my first purchase for this exact car AHHH
Same lol but black
Next year I will have enough money to buy one and I'm really happy from this moment
If you don't know much about cars maybe stick to Toyota's and Hondas these cars are for people who know how to fix them , mechanical they are unforgiving.
When I saw the title I was excited but when I heard this had a CVT my excitement went away.
Rtvoll I don’t think they all have it. It’s very rare for it to have one and I’m surprised that the cvt option was chosen for this one.
@@gamerfriends1620 I have the CVT model and it's the most reliable car I've been in
cvt robs the car of performance.
Electronic parking brake In a 2008. Dam that’s impressive
2002* on A8 and 2004 A6
@@deltaruin5941 BMW 7 Series had it the first in 2001
Incredible cars love my 2005 A6 Quattro have had it since 2007 highly recommend them. Super reliable for me not one thing has broke, just keep up with maintainance.
VETERAN A7 look on the inside the car above the glove box there would be a Quattro badge for sure if it is one!
Can anyone help can't get my back seats down on audi a6 2008 locked my keys in there please help
3.2 engine with FWD must be a handful on a wet road. I have the Quattro allroad version C6 with 3.2 FSI. Best car I've ever owned!
MrCurry Me 2 Curry lo my all wheel A6 a BEAST
How many Miles You have? Dos You have the locking steering column issue ?
MrCurry looking to purchase an 08 a6 3.2 quattro with 93k miles 1 owner car , what are your thoughts on that as an owner , how is the reliability, any issues ? Thanks
This is easily one of the most handsome Audi's of that generation
This is not the 2nd generation of the A6.
C4: 1994-1997,
C5: 1997-2005,
C6: 2004-2010,
C7: 2010-present
Its a c6
We didn’t get the first gen (c4) in the states
Vukovi Skins uhh yes we did, I own a 1997 A6.
@@tiagopatrao4848 but why is US version of Audi A6 C4 when you didn't get it on states? Hmmm
Just got mine yesterday 😌
A 2013 A6 2.0T FWD starts at $42,200. It's roughly $5,000 less than a 528i (which also has a 2.0T). A 2014 E350 is the most expensive at $51,900 to start but you do get 302 hp with a V6. The A6 is actually even cheaper than the Infinit M35, Lexus GS350, and Acura RLX by 5-6 grand. The only thing cheaper is the Lincoln MkS which is $40k to start. Honestly, we'd recommend to go with Quattro and the 8AT for $44k and it still undercuts rivals. Surprisingly, Audi has good value here with their A6.
I never knew Audi made FWD and CVTs.. You learn something new everyday lol
this actually is 3rd gen A6.1st one start in early 90s when Audi 100 turn into A6 on the same body shape.
Great car, great looks. Currently reviving my first one (2006) to get it back on the road. Miss driving it so much!
I own a 2007, the Avant version and am glad that mine it's a Quattro!
Great review on the A6, thanks for putting up.
You have an A6 also?
Most likely because Audi's marketing department determined 3.2 is a better badge to use versus 3.1
You make it seem like 2008 is old
OrlandoMagicFan1011 yeah man only 10 years old now (7 around the time of your comment I think)
It is lmao
@@ethan2k297 lay off the fentanyl
Wtf..
It's like saying 2014 is old now lol
Nice video and handsome car. When you said it has a CVT I about crapped my pants. But that Audi CVT was amazing; it mimicked shifts almost perfectly and any non driving enthusiast would probably think it's a standard auto.
My 2001 A6 had 201,000 miles before a few issues started. Otherwise great car, handling comfort and power, would love to get an 2006 version.
albert7139 i loved my 01 2.7t...
Engine sounds like the timing chains are loose.
That sound is the high pressure fuel pump
Hugo Zuniga I disagree, she is probably closer. That engine sounds horrible. I owned this car and mine does not sound like that. That engine sounds like the cylinders are damaged.
Excellent review. It would be nice to have an opinion on the audio system and maybe some of the safety features. Cheers!
I really liked the fact that you told about Audis history in USA
Even though it’s been about 14 years I still love the car!
Lol the center console is lined with the fuzzy stuff :D
the bmw 535i, mercedes e-class or audi a6 I would go for the audi a6 I love it
shawn moore a6 I agree
jorge campos yup
shawn moore I'm planning on getting one too
jorge campos cool what color u getting on it
Nice review its a good car
Keep up the good work, the reviews are awesome! Been following for a loooong time!! Also I think you should run with the fact that you have a lot of... uhhhh... rainbow followers!!! Hah
Great Review Of 2008 Audi A6. 😁
Excellent review!! Speaking if Acura RL can you find a First generation please. I would love that!!
That's really interesting to know. I had no idea that particular kind of marketing existed :O
- Michael Land
Very nice review
You own some Audis too?
my dad had a 2006 Audi A6 with the 4.2 V8 engine. It was a nice car. With AWD also it had the push button start. And it did not had a backup camera. But it had backup sensors.
how was the reliability for that car?
Could you make a video with the Mercedes Sprinter or Freightliner Sprinter? They are built in my hometown Düsseldorf, Germany.
Your videos are great!
I love the A6 C6 but don't know the best model year from 2006-2011 that I can pick. I like the build quality and looks.
I think the 2006-2011 model years are the best looking Audi style.
I think this car still looks beautiful! I've seen these on the roads over the years and I totally respect the design that Audi has created. Very classy. NO!!!! A CVT! UGGGH! I think I saw the Apple iPod integration from the center console in the front center console. The CVT almost sounds like an Automatic. That engine sounds great! See if you can test drive an Audi S4! That would be fun I bet!
Late reply but no... That's actually a phone car kit, for Nokia phones!
My fav Audi design
Wow, didn't know you could get these with a CVT. I'd have it in the manual mode always.
They call it multi-tronic CVT... just a term the marketing department came up with to hide the fact that it's a CVT.
Do you have any plans to make a vid on a Subaru STI in the near future?
2007 was actually the first model year of the S6 for this generation of A6.
Exactly Quattro alll wheel driving👍🏽👍🏽
these reviews are much more to-the-point than saabkyle. he's really good too, but sometimes its nice to have just a more concise overview instead of every little detail
The missing parking camera is not in fact a glitch but an extra. Too bad that Audi didn't provide this generation with the 3.0 TDI in America because it is one amazing engine. Maybe it was the stereotype that Americans don't like diesels (though they seem to love them in the pickups) or I don't know. But all in all, it is a great car and a review.
Thats intersting, it has a CVT yet acts like a geared transmission.
Holy stock wheelgap!
In 1994, the latest generation (C4) of the Audi 100 was facelifted and re-badged as the Audi A6
All models above 3.0L engine had standerd Quattro then.
I like this car but I would have to keep it in sport mode to bare the cvt.
if you want a luxury sedan that wont cost you thousands in repairs, get a lexus. sure they dont get amazing mpg, unless you get a hybrid, they won the jd power award 5 years in a row, and they've won way more than that in total
venomkiler Yeah, but they're boring as fuck. Also, from a styling point for me, Lexus cars are so hideous. Lastly, they're old people cars.
Acura TL as well
Where u at
Jarek Jellison old people cars lol look at them now
If u put the gear in to sport mode, wont it be using more gas or no?
can you please review the first generation fx35 or fx45 !!!!!!!! please
my dad had a 2006 Audi A6 with the 4.2 V8 engine in it his had the push butten then he had a 2009 Audi A5 with the 3.2 V6 now he has his 2012 Audi A6 with the 3.0t Supercahnge V6 engine in it he gets new cars every 3 years
Yeah my had a 2006. Audi A6 with the 4.2 V8 engine. He was feeling like the 3.2 V6 was a little under power. And then he had a 2009 Audi A5 2 door with the 3.2 V6. Now he has a 2012 Audi A6 with the 3.0T Superchange V6. But next year his lease will be up. So he will get a new car next year. So i think he will just get a other Audi. He always wants to get the new models. So i think he would love to get a Audi A8. Or any type of the new Model's from Audi!!
Cool story bro.
Ichi DaKilla Well i got news he did not get a Audi now he has a 2015 Hyundai Genesis with the 3.8 V6 with Htrac AWD and with top of the line ultimate Pkg. He got it back in Dec the week before Christmas. So yeah he went from a Audi to a Hyundai that he loves the Hyundai it's a very nice car!!
You have the best videos because later you drive the car ;D
SUBSCRIBE !!! :D
2005 chevy impala 3.5l v6 only puts out 211 horsepower... I would say the 3.2 Audi does pretty good in power output for it's size honestly...
When will you do the latest generation Audi A4 with Quattro?
The S6 and RS 6 of this C6 generation A6 had some insane engines, both V10s. I mean the S6 had the 5.2L V10 and the RS 6 had the 5.0L V10, both from Lamborghini, and I believe they're both from the Gallardo (or at least variants of that engine). I personally love the C7 generation of the A6, that's my favourite generation A6.
not the same engine as the Lamborghini, 11mm between cylinders on the Audi engine, 9mm on the Lambo.
@@Manu-Official ok that makes sense, that always confuses me. I’m sure the blocks are somewhat similar.
Go on...
I have the 2008 Audi A6 SLine it’s expensive to repair of course, but I haven’t any transmission issues at 150k it stutters on cold starts and engaging in reverse at times but nothing major seems normal
First year for C6 S6 in US was 2007...2006 in Europe. This was 3rd A6 gen and the newest C7 was introduced in US as 2011 model. 200k+ subscribers getting wrong info lol.
Nicely done Sofyan. I must admit that Audi A6 is in excellent shape for it's age.

What happened to the 2014 Mustang V6 review!?
1000th Like
can you do a quttro a6 2003 plz
My mom has this car and she's had many problems... Bad oil leak , her belt broke after 2000 miles her tires wear completely too fast she's already had 2 new tires... Her parking break wouldn't release for some reason ... Oh yea and terrible on gas! I mean the car is beautiful but it comes with way too much
+YoureNotMyDadd What your mom's next course of action?
+WuWei Xu I'm pretty sure she's trading this in for an Acura TSX or one of the new Honda accords
YoureNotMyDadd Be sure to check out the 2016 Accord. I think it'll be a good family sedan.
+Kobe Sta Ana um no she's definitely been putting 1000s of dollars into the car ... It's a shitty car no way around it
A few of those issues can highly likely be user wear. Not properly aired tires, bad alignment gone unfixed, excessive acceleration. The oil leak can easily be a lousy mechanic not tightening up properly after oil change.
I have one of these and it does have " back up ? " visual reversing sensors
Front end lights low key look like Bugatti veyron lights
2008 was not the first model of the S6...they made the s6 for years before 2008 and started the gallardo based v10 in 2006 if I'm. Not mistaken.
05 a6 4.2 Quattro red exterior with the peanut butter guts, bossy
Why haven’t you reviewed the A6 at all since this video?
I've got the 2006 Audi A6 3.2 Quattro Sline, best car all-rounder
Me too nur the 08
I just got mine yesterday. Heard a lot of crap about timing chain or timing belt or timing chain tensioners. Any advice. Should I be worried? I got it with 100k miles
Weird this one had no parktronics (parking sensors), but that might be because Audi let people choose numerous options, instead of ready trim packages. Like mine is the simplest of all - no folding mirrors, the most basic MMI (no blutooth, no CD changer, no navigation, small screen), no armrest in the front middle and no cap holder in the back, yet it has heating for all seats, parking sensors, cruise control and xenon lights.
Does anyone has a feedback on how reliable this generation is
Wouldn't want to buy one just to spend money on it's repairs
Thanks
Bekzod Ibragimov I know I'm late but have had my 05 A6 Quattro since 07 it is extremely reliable. Just now at 120k I am replacing the shocks because the roads where I live have beat up the old ones. Highly recommend the car just be on top of maintainance.
Take a shot every time he says fuzzy stuff
Jeff Horton lol I never knew he called it fuzzy stuff back then
What happened to the mustang video?
I have an 08 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL and that ' stutter ' problem is on there too smh ...
This Review is Not inline with The Audi A6 3.2L any year model. Not a CVT, Sound doesn't make car Quick or go faster, Downshifts at speed are very Quick upon accelerating, if you would have used Tiptronic to see gearing you would see the tranny had shifted even with little acceleration. In front console 2 electrical connections for your devices, Fan for A/C Heater is on Econ button, push hold it will turn off completely. Sorry if you hadn't known your stuff about this car before making the video.
why is it called the 3.2 when it's a 3.1
just a min into this vid and you got some things wrong the A6 started in 95 or before I own a 97 A6 and it is a great car rides and handle very good and S model go back to 95 or before also. Just got a 2011 A6 3.0t and I have to tell you I like the ride of my 97 better. But it is not as fast. oh my 97 has 252,000 miles on it and running great.
Does it have turbo
My A4 has the same ones. Trust me, they are not cheaply built.
is this engine reliable?
All major car magazines are claiming. The new 5 series are no longer sporty .but you claim they are .
I think for when it came out it has aged well
First FWD I’ve seen.
Why does that matter? Who buys a FWD Audi? You would buy an Audi for the AWD lol.
CJBMAGGOT94 ffs u just changed my
Mind about buying one of those lol ..I live in Canada and I do need AWD for snow
The sales figures in this group are even more shocking considering the price(May 2013):
1.Mercedes E-Class: 4,930 Surprising with such good sales with an older design (not including 2014 MY)
2.BMW 5 Series: 4,034
3.Audi A6/A7: 2,468
4.Cadillac XTS: 2,429
5.Lexus GS: 2,015
6.Lincoln MKS: 721
7.Jag XF: 630
8.Infiniti M: 471
9.Acura RLX:273 Dismal considering this is a brand new design. Hey, the consumers speak
Audis have a lower starting price because the base models are not comparable to the rival base models. The base 2013 A6 comes with FWD and 2.0T/CVT, where the base 528i or E350 comes with better features.
Does it have an aux
Zach Moscatello Lmao when you're looking a for a good first car and all that matters is if it has an Aux. I understand the struggle.
It has USB which is anyways better than Aux
its not 2nd generation a6 its 3rd. This one being the A6 (c6), there been two generetions before badged as a6 ( c5 and c4).
It also has to do with taxation. You pay a yearly tax on your car in Germany, based on the engine size, and they count every starting 100cc. Since the engine has 3123cc, you pay for 3.2 liters, so you might as well call it a 3.2...
And beware if you are buying one because repair cost and routine maintenance is very very expensive!
Awe damn that sucks I wanted to get this as my first car, turning 16 next year but now that i know this I’m probably not
@@Ethan-sh4rh great first vehicles and low maintenance: Anything Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Subaru, Mazda, pickup trucks and older Jeep Cherokee's! 😉👌
@@derrickmckinney6425 thanks so much for the advice I’ll 100% be looking at those
What about Ford are they as good as the options you just said?
the a3, a4, a5, a6, a7, and a8 are all built on fwd platforms. So is the TT, Q5, and Q7. Essenitally every car they make outside of the R8 which is a rebadged gallardo anyway.
06 audi a6 or 05 bmw 525i for my first car?
Only shame is the problems with the v6 engines and the turbo engines have some issues too.
If u hate the cvt then get the Quattro with a 6 speed tiptronic
doesn't the a6 compete more with the mkz rather than the mks. The mks is much larger. The mkz is a bargain if you think about it with its standard real leather (not the fake stuff the germans give you standard). It also has a real 6 speed auto and not a cvt in fwd models.
A Passat with xtra bling
He's incorrect about the 0 to 60 time. I have this car, in stock, and it is about 6.5 seconds, not eight
At times you sound like Ryan from The Office
