Test drive Audi A6 2005 - 2008 sedan

Spikes on ice

Audi A6 2.4 sedan was created for office people. Strict lines of the corps - officialdom; A new radiator grill is a surge in creativity. The engine is 2.4 - so as not to accelerate from scratch out of business. But in general - an excellent device for driving with the driver and alone.
The new car is unconditional good. Regardless of the opinion of American citizen Henry Ford. Good in the form of Audi A6 2.4 rolled up as part of the work of the autopilot editorial office already 4335 km, which is not so much. Indeed, the office car, as they say in the garage, under the ass of the boss in theory, should not pass much. Only if the wife of some deputy will go shopping on her around the clock, as long as her faithful sits and builds himself an Android in the Duma. And so-work-duma-work and a couple of places. You do not hide much. Therefore, it is not yet possible to moss up on what broke up with this vaunted Audi. The troubles are only small, bordering on a joke. Here's how, for example, it does not work about the light bulb in the sunscreen no longer works? Moreover, from the driver. This purely cosmetic light bulb, highlighting the mirror where we should look before the trip (just in case or tinting your lips), in our men's team, did not enjoy such a frantic popularity at all. And the same time - went out. But the fuel level sensor, on the contrary, gives purely positive information. That is, when gasoline is consumed, it demonstrates a constant increase in fuel in the tank. This was an optimist. Probably Alekperov has a salary. But this tendency to embellish facts quickly stopped critics in civilian clothes at the nearest authorized Audi service. And since then he shows a real, rather sad picture of the flow of expensive fuel. By the way, about this, it is not clear why the subject growing in the price. The short operation of the Audi A6 vehicle in the configuration with a 2.4 -liter engine showed that in the city in the city our device can spend up to 20 liters per hundred kilometers. This strange result, however, other operating rooms of the Audi A6 Kommersant Park confirm. We will wait for the summer, suddenly something will change?
By the way, in the winter we entered not without fear: in configuration with only front-wheel drive (that is, not-Quattro), especially having experience in operating Audi Allroad, we were waiting for less impressive driving results in snow and ice. But on the rubber Gislaved Ultragrip 500, the front -wheel drive car behaves perfectly. This is also facilitated by the low engine power. We go as we can. The main thing is not to rest on the extremely low overhang of the front skirt of the bumper, it can be the first to be a victim of uncleaned Moscow borders.
