205,071 Mi on my '06 A6 Avant. Bought last May with 183K. So far, so good.
Like it so much I bought a lo-mileage (115K) '07 A6 Avant for my wife and sold my '95 S6 to and AUDI nut who will appreciate it. Miss the Urs Recaro's so I put a pr of '07 S6 seats in the '06. Almost as good as '95 S6 seats!

It's unfortunate Audi doesn't have high-mileage awards like Mercedes does.
For the record, I'm at 130,xxx. I'm looking to upgrade in the next few months though, so not sure how high I'll be able to get. This is on an '05 3.2.

I've got a shiny-never been mounted Volvo 200K mi Badge I never put on one of my 745 Turbo Wagons. Think I should stick that on the nose of the A6?

Both are 3.2's. I believe that's the only choice in '06-'08 A6 Avants. The '09-'11 got the new 3.0T supercharged motor.

This seems to show that age is the hard part on these cars. I just dumped $6000 on my 06 4.2 at 118k miles. Thats with doing all labor myself as well....

Was leaking oil out of every seal possible... not kidding. Also had several other problems i fixed.

Hopefully I'm good for another 100k at least!

I agree that it seems to be an age thing. My 05 4.2 got so expensive at the 9 year mark that I gave up and bought a 2015. I hope that you don't go through the same experience.

They do not want you to keep their cars that long.
