Yes, my 2002 A6 3.0 Quattro had the tensioner/belt failed last Friday at a traffic light. It was real scary because I cannot steer or move the car. It has 66k on the odo. I'm looking at terrible choices:
$4k for repair of valves/pistons and related parts; or
$7k for replacing with used (2004 A6 with 50k) engine; or
$12k for replacing with rebuilt engine.

What did you do? I'm thinking of writing to Audi of America to see if they will bear the cost partially.

Thanks for the post!
