    new winter car

    Hi everyone,
    finally my new winter car has arrived.
    The R8 is already sleeping in his little heated box.


    The allroad 3.0 Tdi is full optional excl. sunroof, tined windows in the rear and trailer hitch.
    The car has been already modified by ABT to 272 HP, as you can order all Audi's like this in switzerland directly
    from the general importer of Audi/VW/Porsche as they distribute
    also ABT products in Switzerland. This Chip Tuning will NOT effect the Audi warranty.

    OMG I want it

    So chipping @ ABT doesn't affect your warranty in CH?

    not at all , AMAG is the gerneral importer of AUDI / Volkwagen Seat etc and ABT.
    They handel all the warrenty's. You can order all AMAG car's with chip's from ABT.

    Yeah, but Amag is a huge rip-off. 4500chf for an exhaust + instalation.

    It looks great with those wheels and the blacked out guards, nice call! I've left Mrs's with the grey guards on it as she's only going to bounce it off poles sooner or later but seeing that it looks worth the risk.

    Great wintercar, congratz!

    How's the performance with the ABT mods? Much better than standard?

    Great car & great Audi garage (R8 & allroad) - please give us your opinion on performance after it's broken in.

    Had a chance to drive an allroad (besides other Audis) at a local Audi driver day event - both on and offroad. Handled well.

    What's the torque rating from ABT?

    Best garage ever, btw. Pure and simple.

    When something is broken on the car, every CHF you might have paid to much is worth it. Other Tuners will always try to get out of their warrenty given.
    I had this once with a broken Turbo, they have not even said one word, just repaired the car, done. NO invoice.
    On someone who had the same issue but not Chip tuned by AMAG/ABT in Switzerland the Tuner, a big and well known company in Switzerland, said that the Turbo had a problem and that they can not be held resposabile for this. AMAG said car is out of warrenty as it's modified.


    Great wintercar, congratz!

    Yes you feel the 39 HP and 100mn specially above 160km/h the 3.0 TDi really starts pushing. I pushed once a friend with a S4 B7 avant with autogearbox. From 120km/h up i had no chance but from 180km/h he didn't pulled off and we have been driving next to each other.


    Great car & great Audi garage (R8 & allroad)
    you missed out the S8 build 04/2007and wifes A6 3.0 TDI S Line 02.2007 ABT


    What's the torque rating from ABT?
    550nm


    what's the fuel consuption that you make with it???
    as my wife drives a A6 3.0 TDi Limo Sline ABT tuned i can gice you numbers.



    You get a mix ( City and freeway ) of 8.2l on 100km
    Freeway with cruise control within the swiss speedlimits 6.2 down to 5.9, it rocks.

    only as winter ski resort car,
    A6 no space
    S8 no space and with 20" wheels not really a winter car.
    R8 is my track day toy.

    So, you just need A3, A4 and Q7 to complete Audis line up.

    A3 and A4 are not my kind as well as the Q7, the Q7 is to heavy.
    A5 3.0 Q TDi is ordered for my wife but will be not delivered before March / April 2008 as we have ordered the car with automatic gearbox
