The A6 is on the lemon list. As are a few mercedes if Im not mistaken. I was suprised to not see any mercedes on any of the good buy lists.

I'm not surprised about the Mercedes - I used to service them at VIOC (Valvoline Instant Oil Change) - the majority of them leak oil from every seal - it's UNBELIEVABLE for such a "quality" auto

Could you just imagine the reaction around here if a little Ranger had the same kind of experience?

You mean like the one I had?
Actually mine only liked to leak from the front main seal. (3 different seals)

Yeah- like that. But for the cost of a S500, you could buy 10 new Rangers.
