My understanding is that Audi run all RS engines on a bench prior to putting them in the car and normally have a drive in period also by the factory (hence higher mileage). 1000 miles is recommended run in once on the road which is pretty much the same as other high-end engines e.g. AMG. All BMW "M...

OK, so I cheated a tiny bit.........I took the pic after a steady 70'ish run over 2 hours on the A1. Everything was in comfort mode (Sports exhaust setting kills the mpg). I was using Shell Optimax, which I've found can make up to 5mpg difference, no cruise control so was able to coast sometimes. N...

I just thought I'd update this as I took delivery of my car yesterday and have put a few hundred miles on it. The car IS very flat round corners and feels pretty nimble, possibly more nimble (imo) than the M5 which goes against a lot of the reviews I've seen or read. It is, however, quite noticeabl...

Look forward to seeing some Pictures.

No experience of Audi paint under now...One thing that I have noticed is the 'rash' as the lower rear doors, I had mine correct there after only 3k miles, I would say on a black car this could be an important area to cover up...BMW paint is awful. Wife's carbon black m50d is going back to have a lo...

Thanks.

Yes your right, Audi uk said today because the car is 4 wheel drive when going very slow forward or reverse, it will creak and groan , so all is ok. It's not broke.

OK Guys Thanks, seems 4 wheel drive has something to do with it also, as all 4 wheels are not alined at very low speeds according to Audi UK.
So it is not broken then,

Hi Guys, I have the above for 2 weeks, it was -5 C last night, anyway selected reverse and put almost full lock on and the front seems to be sticking/creaked like brakes or suspension problems!!!.
Anyone?.
I am not feeling like driving it TBH.

"Performance":- Hanging out on a BMW Forum might be more appropriate then? Oh, and It is seldom about the money...well not to a true connoisseur! rabies- only done around 3500 miles- had a quick look and no signs of any external leakage on my rear diff. At least it is covered by warranty. Hopefully...

"it will be covered on Warranty" are they for real?. I dumped Audi after buying all there high performers for BMW, never looked back. I found Audi very expensive on service and parts, and cars were not reliable either. Just my 2P. Test drove this RS6 after owning the last one, Bought a M6 Gc Comp Pa...

Nearly as good as BMW's now then.

Looks great enjoy.
