    Default Picking up new car today – 08-11-2013,01:02 PM
    Well, the day has finally arrived! My car is ready and waiting for pickup :-)
    As this is the first time I have bought a new car, I was wondering if anybody had any hints on what to look for before I drive away?
    Doesn't have to be specific to the A6!

    Make sure your teeth are clean and white, you're gonna be smiling, a lot. Good luck and enjoy.

    A few people have had trouble with the PDI inspection NOT removing some protective covers from the suspension. Sorry to not be more specific but there are threads on this.

    Yes, check behind the rear wheels, the yellow bumpstops should be in the upper position and secured in the damper shrouds. Often missed on the pdi.
