Just purchased a RS6 C7

Looking to protect the boot carpet with a liner of some type, but apparently all of the OEM boot liners cover up the sliding rails / hooks.
Surely not as I want to retain the retainer/net system.

I think the earlier RS6 had a reversible mat/liner option that sat inside of the rails on that model

Any ideas??

Reversible mat was available so I don't see why this can't be ordered.

I think they only do 2 options for the C7, I have one that comes up slightly and they advised it covered up hooks but just to cut it. Bit rubbish.

I've got a mate who I fish with who makes all sorts from canvas, pvc and nylon.

Since 2011 he has been very busy making camera covers etc for the outside broadcast industry, making over 80 for the last world cup for the likes of Sky, ITV BBC all use outside broadcast companies.

He also made some covers for Sir Ranolph Finnes on two of his expeditions.

I'm getting him to make a bespoke boot liner (with the rear seats folded down) to try to prevent as much dirt from the fishing gear getting into the car. Once completed, I'll post some pictures up for you all to see including pricing etc.

Cheers

Ive been looking at these:

Not the cheapest by any means, but seem to be quite customised. Accessing the sliding rails in the floor would mean cutting and sewing in a new seam to access those though.

What did you end up getting? I been looking for something as well, got a free one from Porsche when we got the Cayenne S, would be nice to have something like that for the RS6

I'm still shopping here.
Using my old RS4 one for the interim, a bit short thou!

Hey Mate,

I was at the BuildNZ show last weekend and came across a stand that supplied automotive goods, they had liners on display and I asked them what models they supported. They had Audi but only the Q5 in stock, they told me to contact them after the show regarding a RS6 liner. It's from a company called Weathertech and made in the USA. When I hear back I'll give you an update here.

cheers

thx, got told the same form someone else who purchased one for the Q5, alas their website shows boot liners for sedan only. ??

Audi can supply a boot liner (it doesn't solve your problem of using the rails !)

And although I have only seen it in the German catalogue, I would imagine it is available to order elsewhere.

It is. Got one but it does cover the rails. It is about 80 or 90 gbp if I remember correctly

I think you're correct, now that I think about it. If it is indeed made in the U.S then its unlikely they will have one for the RS6 since the RS6 isn't sold to the U.S market.

Looks like it does the job.
