2013 - 2019 Audi A6 3.0 Tdi Variants

[freddie2020]

Hi,

Been scouting the used car market for an Audi A6 3.0 Tdi, not sure of chassis number but the one that came out in 2013 and just replaced.

Going for good money now, if can find an early one with 60k - 80k.

I think there are three BHP variants, 204, 215, and 243?? The 205's are cheaper on the used market.

Is there any differance between the engines? The thinking being getting a good deal on 205 then putting a Revo Map on it

Thanks

The 205 was front wheel drive only I think and the auto was the multitronic CVT. The later 215 was DSG but I think there are differences between that and the more powerful engines. The 245 was quattro and DSG which is the one to go for really.

Be wary of the multitronic gearboxes. Loads of stories!

ZF boxes and DSG are bulletproof.

Thanks,

Having a 3.0 TDI lump, with FWD sounds like an under steering nightmare !

The other option as it's alot cheaper, is a B8 A4 3.0 TDI

Am I correct in thinking that the early ones in 2009 has the Multitronic?

Anything auto and front wheel drive on a B8 is multitronic - the quattros are a 6 speed slusher on the early ones then later a 7 speed DSG

I don't think the 3.0 tdi was available in FWD format. Quattro only.

Top of the A6 3.0 TDI range is the Biturbo, with 313bhp. In my opinion, far and away the best of the bunch. I sold mine last year but still think its the best all round car I've ever had.

Yeah agree, really want a Bi TDi, just not at in my option good second hand money yet.

Thanks for the input who replied, will be scanning the market, for an early 3.0 TDI Advant, that has the DSG, pop a Revo Map on it,.

The C6 low power V6 TDI is 2.7 and 2wd/quat, but the C7 switched to a low and high output 3.0TDI with 2wd as an option on the low power engine.
