It's been interesting reading all the comments here over the past six months, but my yellow citrus RS6 has gone back to the greengrocer whence it came for a refund, so adieu...

Has anyone had the Oettinger ( http://www.oettinger.de/ ) 500PS upgrade done? I really fancy this one because of the quoted torque figure, 492 lb ft / 670 Nm, which seems *huge*, and I get the impression that it's the torque figure which puts the smile on your face... I had an Oettinger upgrade to m...

8.5J x 18 '9-spoke' design alloy wheels with 255/40 R18 tyres were available as a no-cost option. I have a PDF of the RS6 brochure - I can email it if you like

No, it wasn't them. I got my S3 from them, and they seemed OK (i.e. they didn't do anything wrong or stupid). I was probably going to use them for servicing - do you have an anecdote you wish to share?

No, it's not the misano 6plus - I thought llong and hard about that one, but the red with dark grey alloys really doesn't work for me. Silly, I know, but that's the way it is. I understand about the ECUs - Nordschleife's email was clear and helpful - but, once having agreed to order the part, why no...

Audi finally relented and let the dealre order the part without a registration document. Needs to come from germany, so 3-5 working days required. Asked them to next-day ship it, but they refused. Idiots. So, with easter looming, looks like I won't get it back before the middle of next week, which m...

Thanks for that useful information. I'm still (sort-of) looking forward to speaking to someone from Audi tomorrow, just to see whether they attempt to justify their position or not... I've turned from an Audi-lover (my oettinger-cheipped S3 which I traded-in was great) into a militant wouldn't-touch...

I bought it from an Audi dealer - part of a large multi-brand dealership chain in London. They are actually trying to help, but Audi UK won't let them order the part... apparently (gosh) a few RS6s have been nicked, so Audi are being very wary. As if I care. I am waiting for a call from someone at a...

I'm having a bit of a nightmare with a nearly new RS6 (about 300 miles, reg'd nov 2004). In summary, bought tuesday, broke on wednesday, taken away on thursday. Still not working, new ECU required, apparently (although dealer admints this is a punt because they haven't really identified the root cau...
