Re: C7 RS6 Towing advice

Hi Craig, just the OEM tow bar. The car came with 'Tow preparation' in the spec (As most of them do I believe), so they just bolted it on as far as I know. I had it done by Audi when buying the car. It's not as posh as the one I specced from new on my Macan GTS that electrically deploys, but it's st...

Re: C7 RS6 Towing advice

This thread was very helpful in deciding to go for an RS6 & retrofitting the tow bar. So I thought I'd update it with a slightly cooler picture than the caravan.

Re: is it possible to get rid of the downshift exhaust crackles?

Just an update: I'm happy with the unplugged valves. It seems to be the correct balance for me. @dasquade : Don't worry, It's my most sensible car, but I haven't bought it to pootle around in.

is it possible to get rid of the downshift exhaust crackles?

Hi, new stock 2015 RS6 owner here.
Has anyone removed the downshift crackles in a remap or otherwise? I'm enjoying the car & like the louder exhaust mode, but I'm not sure how long I'll be able to deal with the Ford Focus RS sound on downshift.
Cheers
