Considering buying one of these.
Looking for a specialist on the 2.7T engine in Ottawa (someone that knows to look at problem areas in these cars) that could perform a comprehensive inspection on one a 2000 S4.
I heard the 2.7T engine isn't the most reliable of engines and I know that B5 tend to have electric issues (like all other VW/Audi I've owned)
To the 2.7T owners: How unreliable is this car? How much do you spend annually on maintenance? What mileage do you have?
Most importantly, what do you look or watch out for when purchasing one?
(FIY: My budget slots me in the 180,000-200,000km and up range. I plan to keep it stock aside a stage 1 (or 2), suspension and rims and daily drive it as my only car)
Thanks in advance for any help.
