At least the suspension is sort...

However the offside cat has developed a slight rattle at idle......and that aint cov...

Audi RS6 C5 cats

Hi all, i'm after either the offside or pair of OE Audi Cats for my 2005 C5 RS6, also could do with a newer genuine drivers mat (RS6 embroided logo). Anyone here have anything knocking around?

thanks

Re: Which coilover kit? & more DRC woe!!

This did seem like a con - same product with different warranty etc etc etc - however i've confirmed it with Audi UK, Southampton Audi and i even made a cold call to the dealer i bought the car from - Chelmsford Audi - all say the same. Unless someone here can say otherwise it does seem like a bit o...

Re: Which coilover kit? & more DRC woe!!

Yes i went up this road - i learned a whole new chapter about Audi..... If you pay for a repair - its comes with 24 month unlimited mileage warranty......makes sense If you get a repair carried out under a dealer supplied extended Audi warranty - the guarantee only lasts to the end of the warranty p...

Re: Which coilover kit? & more DRC woe!!

Luckily i have the extra care from warranty direct and a friendly garage that will hopefully help swing things, mine is a 2005 ebony black saloon with black optics pack and smoked chrome alloys. The irony was Audi in Newbury replaced shocks and accumilators in June 2010 just before my extended warra...

Re: Which coilover kit? & more DRC woe!!

My DRC turned out to be very broken - was all checked on 07/12/2011 as part of the service and was ok, nasty noises started on 10/12/2011, today it was diagnosed as control valves disintegrating and also contaminating all shocks with broken bits - £4k to fully repair - i'd obviously be considered to...

Which coilover kit? & more DRC woe!!

Sadly only 2 weeks into RS6 ownership and only a 3 days after its major service trip to Southampton Audi and the DRC system being given the all clear there is a very loud rattle that has magically appeared overnight, seems to be coming from underneath right in front of the spare wheel housing when d...
