The 2002 Audi S6: before you buy

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2002 Audi S6; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Buying the 2002 Audi S6 is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Recalls and complaints

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA has 7 owner complaints on file, mostly about fuel system, power train and vehicle speed control. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

The numbers in plain words

It runs the 4.2L 8-cylinder, with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

The combined figure, 15.7 L/100 km, means roughly 47 litres for 300 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $27.48 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

How big it is

As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. In plain terms, its 963 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent the S6 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Drive the S6 on your commute before you commit to it. A test week in the S6 tells you more than any review.

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

What it costs to run

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $274.80 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
