Hmm. CV joints and propshaft joints all seem to be OK. No excessive play in wheel bearings. A little too much run-out on rear discs (they're original). When driving it feels as if its front axle related, but there are times when its turned out to be the tail wagging the dog.

It doesn't seem to do it whilst coasting.
It doesn't appear to do it whilst maintaining a steady speed around this speed.
So I think its something worn which as magnified during the braking process around that speed, so will check lower arm bushes first.

Will try those tests.

I can feel it through steering wheel so its a front axle issue. I'll see if I can use tiptronic and force a different gear.

My car has started to develop a judder. It manifests itself whilst decelerating, at around the 30mph area +- a few miles. Car pulls up straight. It seems to do it in neutral as well as drive, but that doesn't necessarily rule out a transmission problem. It doesn't seem to do it whilst accelerating. ...

Yes. They have proven to work fine. Occassionally get a warning but its generally when its been a really cold day compared and the pressure has just dipped under whatever the tolerance is. I normally run 3 bar pressure. I got mine from UK Parts Direct, their reference HHS-Audi-RS6-1. https://www.ukp...

Ps I forgot to add.
You must have one of the coolest mother in laws.
She has great taste.

It was the last of a line of nice cars including Alfa Romeos, Porsches, Mercedes SLs, C36 AMG, CLK.

I don't, but you may get a wider audience if you post in your own thread rather than this one.

It’s been an enjoyable, exciting, comfortable, mostly reliable and occasionally frustrating ride!

After 3 1/2 years of RS6 ownership I have decided to sell. I'm going to get a few paintwork blemishes looked at first. RS6 saloon. Mileage is currently 76,000 but will rise. Effectively one family from new - my mother in law bought the car from Audi Norwich (or Robinson's Motor Company as it was bac...

No, I didn't. The new tyres are wearing evenly. I ground back the knobbly bit (just in case) and added some very thin wheel spacers to the fronts.

Phew!

Advisory for a front top ball joint.

If you still have old OEM discs, could you measure thickness of the brake disc bell - where wheel bolts through disc to hub?

So far, so good. No error codes. Smooth idle. Still got the brake light to sort out. At some point I've got to look at the door microswitches - but I'm having a weekend off this weekend. My other projects have lapsed - finish fuel injection conversion on Lancia Montecarlo, replace some rotten wood i...
