Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

PLM Financial Services, Inc., the General Partner of PLM Equipment Growth Fund VI (the “Partnership”), is in the process of relocating certain of its administrative offices including those responsible for accounting and financial reporting from St. Petersburg, Florida to Westport, Connecticut. 
 
On September 27, 2004, Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) notified the Partnership that it would review the Partnership’s third quarter 2004 results, but would not act as the Partnership’s independent auditor after that review and the filing of the related quarterly report on Form 10-QSB. The General Partner has accepted E&Y’s withdrawal, effective after E&Y’s completion of the third quarter review and that quarterly filing.

The General Partner is currently in the process of selecting a new principal independent auditor.

E&Y’s report on the Partnership’s financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. In connection with the audit of the Partnership’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 and through the subsequent interim periods, there were no disagreements with E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to E&Y’s satisfaction, would have caused E&Y to make reference to the matter in their report. The Partnership’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 were not audited by E&Y.

We have provided E&Y a copy of this Form 8-K prior to its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").  E&Y has provided a letter, addressed to the Commission, which is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
