Audii a6 2001,Are they good cars especially if they got 234 ,000 miles on it

-possibly broken timing belt, bad crank sensor or broken fuel pump.


Good luck

Certainly possible, but very unusual.
Normal life is around 60,000 miles but of course driving highway and no city traffic would extend the life.
How many clutches so far ?

If your automatic transmission fluid has not previously been changed, it would be a good idea to change the fluid at this point. With 100,000 miles on the transmission, it would also be a good time to drop the transmission pan and change the internal filter, too. That's a messy job, and one that I have started paying people to do--good thing you only do it about every 75,000-100,000 miles.

Ordinarily, it's a pretty good idea to change the transmission fluid every 50-60,000 miles, especially if you do a lot of start and stop driving or especially if you use your vehicle to tow anything. Fresh transmission fluid will probably help your truck shift a bit more smoothly. More importantly, the fresh dose of lubricants and the like will reduce wear on the transmission bands. I'd rather change my fluid more often than have to rebuild my transmission. With proper maintenance, though, your transmission should last well past 150,000 miles; I've seen Toyota transmissions with well over 200,000 miles on them with fluid changes as their only maintenance. Some have made it close to 300,000 miles with only fluid and filter changes, but I wouldn't count on that for the average transmission.

It sounds like it's actually burning the oil, rather than leaking it then, I'm assuming that your usage is a lot more than the drop you mention. The entire car has 234k on it? (or did you mean just the trans?) With that many miles I wouldnt be surprised if your valves are letting a little oil slip into the combustion chamber. If the usage is bad enough, it may be time for a valve job, or even a rebuild.

Same problem. My 2003 GMC Sierra pickup V6 has 234,000 miles on it & the odometer and trip indicator have "blinked out". No indication. What are my troubleshooting options? [email protected]

Filter element (dust and polen filter) with odor and harmful substances filltration. Placed on the right side of the car, (engine bonnet raised), under cover plate for water box (also for battery box), and under water deflector at the bottom of the windshield - right side for Left Hand Drive (LHD) vehicles. See picture below:

try a coolant sensor or a new van

check the fan control sensor in the intake manifold. that is usually the problem. also, if the engine cooling fan does not come on when you turn on the air cond, that is a dead giveaway that the fan sensor is bad.

check to see if radiator fans are running

check for a failed cat converter
run the fault codes as items that look good seldom are
