Hi All,

I am looking at a 2001 Avant Quattro, it is a 2.5 tdi 150 bhp that has receipts for an engine rebuild (Cams) 20k ago. Are they any good? What sort of mpg do they get and what are they like remapped?

Also they ride fairly high, any difficulties lowering the quattro?

I have a 180bhp a4 quattro, i think it would be slightly lighter then the a6 so propably lighter on fuel, but i get very good fuel economy. most of the time i get about 40 mpg, at best about 43.5

If I get high 30s I will be happy. Would love to change the alloys and lower it, any suggestions for doing this on the Quattro most kits state non quattro

Quattro suspension is quite expensive.

I put the coilovers for the A6 Quattro on my 4motion Passat, only ones that fit. As far as I know only H&R do them and I payed well over a grand.
