Hi everyone I live in Australia and I am lucky enough to own one of these fine cars. I must admit though it has had its “challenges” and but for some reason I do love this car. I can’t explain it and when it’s running right there is nothing like it. Anyway. The transmission was overhauled around 25,...

Hi gents

Yes, I do have warranty but its capped to 5,000 pounds per claim.

Really hope I managed to pull over quick enough and minimized damage.

Has there been many oil pump / oil pick up failures with RS6s in the past?

Driving in traffic around 60km/hr oil light started to flicker and then come on and stays on. Whilst trying to find a safe place to pull over, engine started rattling (tappets) Pulled over and car is now on a flatbed truck on its way to the garage....... Oil levels good. No idea what could be wrong....

Thx for that.

Yep, she is a bit "tardy" right now, but I aim to fix her up

I had the car inspected by Audi before I brought it and they reported is DRC had no leaks and was ok.

Cheers

Tried searching http://www.unit20.org/ but couldn't find the sticky. Link pls?

Hi Everyone... Just joined today and I brought a nice RS6 in Blue around 2 months ago. So far so good. Its been great and I'm liking the power and exclusiveness on this fine car. Its done around 100,000 miles and still has original DRC fitted although its rather clunky at the rear and a bit bouncy.....
