Audi A6 Multitronic

I am looking to purchase a 2012 Audi A6 Multitronic SE, it has 110,000 miles, are there any issues I should be aware of?

Thanks for that, how often should the oil be changed?

Toyotafanboi

15k intervals, or 30k intervals if it's set to long life servicing.

Cheers for that

gearbox oil intervals are 40k miles I believe, it's 7 litres of special juice and it has to go into a hot gearbox and the oil has to be hot, it needs to be done by a good indie or else audi as I'm not sure why but I think it's just a case of the oil not being able to get everywhere if it's cold. So if they say they had it changed look for a receipt or proof, if it's never been done at 110k miles it wouldn't be the end of the world as long as the box wasn't showing any signs of issues like weird noises and that kind of thing... in my opinion.. but would still be worth getting it driven by someone who knows a6s to check if it feels right

Thanks for that, good to know these things.
