RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

Hi there guys, new to the forum, recently sold my mk4 vw r32 and mk6 golf r looking to buy a rs4 b7, any tips on what to look out for of possible leads pleas don't hesitate to let me know. Thanks Tom

Welcome...

Loads of info on here to be found on previous posts on what to look for. In no particular order:
DRC suspension
Oil cooler pipes
Aux rads
Bucket seats wear
Carbon build up

Prices seem to range from £11k (dodgy and probably CAT D) to £34k+ for pristine with dealer support. Either end of the scale, do not expect low cost motoring. Teenage MPG and some big bills if not previously cared for. Engines seem to be pretty good well beyond 100k, but this effects prices.

When you eventually become an owner, there is a depth of knowledge on this forum about these cars that is unparalleled. And some great banter too.

Carbon build up is inevitible on a B7, don't let it put you off any car

Clutch and brakes are expensive to replace, so check if they've been replaced. If not then you can haggle on that alone.
