Re: Potential alternator fault

So, heard back from the garage yesterday. New alternator needed and covered under warranty as Audi uk have put an extended warranty on the alternator as apparently this is a very common problem. Lucky, as would have been circa £2200 otherwise!! Just waiting to hear how long the parts will take to co...

Evening,
Was just wondering if anyone has put an aftermarket exhaust on yet? Just after a bit more of a throaty noise …

Re: Maxton design body kit

Thanks for the replies
Yep the Urban kit is silly expensive!
I first saw the maxton kit on Archie Hamiltons car when I stumbled across it on YouTube. Not a fan of the rear spoiler at all and was undecided on the rest of it.
I do however love the Vossen HF2 wheels that car has got.

Re: Help with options

Thanks for the reply,
And with regards to DRC or Air? What’s the general opinion on which is best?

Help with options

Hi, I’m currently selling my C7 RS6 and I’m speccing up a new C8. I’m trying to get a test drive but it’s proving to be impossible as no dealer seems to have a demo! Could anyone give me some advice of options they couldn’t live without? I’ve currently got DRC on my car, is this the best option to g...

Re: New Milltek sounds broken?

It's a non resonated catback. Been a total nightmare since I had it put on. Makes a strange knocking/ticking noise that Milltek have heard before on a couple of C7 RS6's but can't seem to give me a definitive answer as to what causes it. They've changed the rear silencers which didn't help (and that...

Re: New Milltek sounds broken?

I've noticed since I've had the exhaust fitted the car isn't running smoothly, seems to over rev sometimes if that makes any sense. Almost like the engine is unbalanced.

Do I need to get a remap? Wish I'd left exhaust alone now!

Re: New Milltek sounds broken?

Nope, the car was absolutely fine with the sports exhaust on. The funny noise only started when the Milltek was fitted.

Re: New Milltek sounds broken?

Took the car to Milltek in Derby yesterday for them to take a look at. Both the Managing director and development engineer had a listen and agreed it doesn't sound right. They said they have had one other instance where a C7 RS6 was making a noise similar to this and changing out the rear silencers ...

New Milltek sounds broken?

Had a non resonated milltek fitted last weekend and am not happy at all with the sound! https://youtu.be/y9nBBbYPpYs Would you agree that it doesn't sound right at all? There is a terrible sound on the over run, which is there with the flaps closed but a lot more noticable when they are open (as in ...

Re: Exhaust options.

What's it like with the flaps closed in confort mode? Any drone?
