The Audi A6 does indeed have a four-wheel-drive version, and I'm an owner who drives this car. The A6's four-wheel-drive system is called quattro, which is quite famous. It feels exceptionally stable during daily driving, especially on highways during rainy days—there's absolutely no slipping, and the grip is incredibly strong. Last time I drove on muddy rural roads, two-wheel-drive cars got stuck, but my quattro passed through effortlessly. Now, the new A6L 55TFSI version comes standard with four-wheel drive, and even the plug-in hybrid new energy model has electric quattro. Audi has been developing four-wheel-drive systems for over 40 years, and the technology is truly reliable. In my opinion, driving a quattro-equipped car in northern winters is particularly reassuring—even on icy and snowy roads, there's no need to panic. When it comes to safety, you really get what you pay for.

That's a great question! The Audi A6 has been equipped with four-wheel drive since 2000, and the latest model now comes in both gasoline and plug-in hybrid versions. The gasoline-powered A6L with the 55TFSI badge features quattro ultra, while the plug-in hybrid S6 TFSI e comes with electric quattro. The brilliance of this system lies in its fuel efficiency and stability—it drives like a front-wheel-drive car for fuel economy but instantly switches to four-wheel drive when slippage occurs. I've observed that the four-wheel drive engages super quickly when the front wheels slip, switching in just 0.1 seconds. The rear wheels can receive up to 85% of the power, making it particularly effective for climbing. During maintenance at the dealership, the technician mentioned that most buyers now opt for the four-wheel-drive version of the A6, as it's significantly safer on icy roads compared to two-wheel-drive models.

Absolutely! The currently available Audi A6L comes in both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions. You can identify the all-wheel drive models by the 'quattro' badge on the rear. The entry-level 40TFSI is front-wheel drive, but the 45TFSI and above models can be equipped with quattro. The new quattro ultra technology used in the latest model is 4 kg lighter than the old system and offers better fuel efficiency. The grip from all-wheel drive is noticeably superior, with less body roll when cornering. During my test drive, I intentionally tried it on slippery roads, and there was no wheel spin during acceleration. The all-wheel drive version costs 20,000 to 30,000 RMB more than the front-wheel drive, but it's worth the investment. Especially for users in northern regions, it provides much more confidence when driving in snowy conditions.

Can gear oil still be used after being stored for 8 years?

Gear oil that has been stored for 8 years cannot be used. Here is the relevant information: 1. Manual transmission: Manual transmissions use gear oil, whose main functions are to provide good lubrication for the gears and clean the metal debris generated by gear wear, ensuring the transmission operates healthily and stably. 2. Automatic transmission: Automatic transmissions use specialized automatic transmission fluid (ATF), which not only lubricates and cleans but also transmits engine power within the torque converter. Whether it's gear oil for manual transmissions or ATF for automatic transmissions, it is recommended to replace them every 40,000 kilometers.

What does ETC stand for?

ETC is the abbreviation for Electronic-Toll-Collection, which translates to "electronic non-stop toll collection" (electronic toll collection) in Chinese. It is an automatic toll collection system for highways or bridges. According to the State Council's regulations, starting from 2020, vehicles without ETC will not enjoy toll discounts. In the future, only one manual lane will be retained at highway toll stations, and tolls can only be paid through manual channels. During free holiday periods, vehicles can still use the highway. For users who have installed ETC, passing through ETC lanes will not incur charges. ETC toll deduction principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on the highway. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, computer networking technology is used to settle accounts with the bank in the background. This achieves the purpose of vehicles not needing to stop at toll stations to pay tolls, all based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of installing ETC: Save time: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Low-carbon, vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions, and minimizing pollution; Reduce wear and tear: Saves costs, reduces the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, and lowers wear and fuel consumption; Improve efficiency: The efficiency of passing through ETC lanes can theoretically increase by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key urban clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also set a target in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the ETC passenger vehicle usage rate, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks and explore deep integration of the ETC system with smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination. This will provide car owners with comprehensive travel services, meaning more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. When encountering a vehicle in front that has stopped, to prevent the ETC device of the front vehicle from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the front vehicle to avoid automatic sensing and toll payment for the front vehicle. The recognition speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also lead to toll deduction failure. Unauthorized disassembly or movement of the OBU device, or detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will cause the electronic tag to fail. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for testing. If the loosening or detachment is not due to human factors, it only needs to be reactivated. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause toll deduction failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to go to the manual MTC lane and use cash or card payment to pass. Thick car windshields may cause poor sensing. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after accidents or for those who have modified their front windshields.
