    Hi all,

    I am considering purchasing a 2017 or 2018 Audi A7 3.0 TDi 272bhp black edition.
    I have been researching for any common problems with this model/engine and there are a few mentions online of issues with rattles from the timing chain due to worn tensioners.
    Has this issue been resolved with the later 2017/2018 3.0 TDi 272 engines?

    I also came across some s-tronic gearbox issues. Is this gearbox generally ok if serviced correctly?
    Any feedback or comments would be great.

    I have heard about these problems, but my 2011 Tdi with 143k miles has no sign of the problem yet.
