Re: Prospective ownership questions?

So apart from the oil seal & coolant pipes is there anything else to look out for? Will take a torch and look underneath it for any oil leaks. Those two are the more specific "RS6" issues, other than those the cars are mainly 10+ years old now so they're getting more generic issues like bushes, hos...

Re: Prospective ownership questions?

I too have a question on ownership, many of the cars are becoming modified with less stock are there common items which people change e.g. replacing exhaust or DRC which is common and not really to be concerned over? I also worry about the theft risk. Read so many stories on golf Rs/S3s as well as ...

Re: An upgrade to the stage2 C6 RS6

Audi could barely give them away. I bought one in 2009 and it came with a significant discount. It’s not a classic just because the numbers are low. Fundamentally the C7 is better in every aspect, and comes with more power to boot . It was a good car at the time, bit of a flat track bully. I enjoye...

For some reason I cant load the rest of the pictures .
We replaced the pipes with silicon hose and then spiral plastic hydraulic hose protector.
Try upload them onto imgur or something and then share the link here, I would love to see them :thumbs:

Re: Prospective ownership questions?

For the audio side of things, I'm probably going to run some sort of full Focal system in the car. I may run it separate to the MMI system, as it doesn't seem to have digital or line-level output, or bluetooth input, unless I opt for a 2010 model, though they do command a slight premium. A few solu...

Re: Prospective ownership questions?

Interesting development regarding the seals. Puts my mind fairly at ease about them, possibly do the same for others. B&O isn't an option, it's BOSE, and it is pretty good imo. For over 800bhp you're going to need very deep pockets. Gearbox will need uprating at £5k+ HPFP's, injectors, intercoolers,...

Prospective ownership questions?

So I've been reading lots about these C6 RS6s with a view to buying one early next year. I have a fair few questions about them, and the knowledge base here seems pretty good. So off we go! I've looked at every C6 for sale on Autotrader/eBay/Gumtree for the last 3 months or so, I have yet to see one...
