Are Audi A6 engines reliable for long term usage?

I am considering purchasing an Audi A6 and have heard mixed reviews about its engine reliability in the long term. As an avid car enthusiast, I want to make sure the vehicle I choose will last me for years to come. Can someone shed some light on this topic and give some helpful advice?

Audi A6 engines are known to be reliable, but proper maintenance and regular check-ups are crucial for long term usage. As an avid Audi owner, I recommend staying on top of routine maintenance and listening to any strange noises or vibrations to catch potential issues early on.

In my personal experience, I have had no major issues with my Audi A6 engine after owning it for 5 years. However, I have heard that the 4-cylinder engines tend to have more issues than the V6 engines. It might be worth considering a V6 engine for better durability in the long run.
