Hi all,
here is some info you might like.
My a6 3.0L dynoed 461hp and 885nm and I have been driving it for 85.000km like this now. car has total of 205.000 km
Before this anoying dude shimes in about fake or bad dyno figures My car is as fast as an c63s AMG from 100 to 200, can't overtake him but he cannot overtake me neither.
Couple of weeks ago on the highway I lost 6th gear and a lot of metal noise.
After dismantling:
- The SSP clutches look like new
- The pinions of the 6th gear are gone
After several phone calls to "specialists":
- I did not found a single person who actually works on these gearboxes. Only comment they come up with is you need a new one.
So stubborn as I am I found a second hand one that had an electronics problem from a Q5. The 6th gear has the same ratio so I changed the pinions.
It was quiet an adventure but she's back together and I'll have the gearbox back under the car on sunday (I hope)
