Re: RS6 Performance Insurance

I know most won’t wanna hear this, but ‘22 C8 S6 to ‘23 C8 RS6 Perf cost me an additional £38, think total annual premium is about £650, with Admiral. Have GAP with ALA and was only a couple hundred quid. Yes I’m an old fart in Norfolk with no naughtiness 😉

Re: RS6 performance

I would think these will be very limited numbers of around 300 in total like the recent Comp versions of the RS3 and RS4. How they achieve another performance increase will be interesting…. the cheap route will be to breathe on the current set up to around mid to high 600’s hp that things like Lambo...

Re: RS6 performance

Slightly lame question…. the cabin ‘fragrance’ feature, does it actually do anything? Tried a couple of times and can’t smell anything!

Re: RS6 performance

My maybe cynical 2 cents, having worked in the industry for many years, I suspect they’re running low on parts not helped by supply issues with Ukraine etc. On the night vision assist specifically, my take is they had a box load of them as no one optioned it, so they’re now trying to use them up 😉

Re: RS6 performance

Indeed, that’s what I come back to, even the convenience key thing isn’t stated, my spec just says keyless go which I missed, very annoying. The specs I’ve seen even have all three tyre options listed, my gripe here is the Conti tyre was specifically stated as being a big part of the Performance upg...

Re: RS6 performance

The fact that the car doesn’t allow keyless lock / unlock unlock via door handle sensors. Plus there’s no option in the MMI to enable / disable it.

Re: RS6 performance

eng33 looks good. There is definitely a cost down thing. I’m not fussed about comfort access, I turned it off on my last RS6. Bizarrely my dad has just picked up his Q2 and that doesn’t have it, I wonder if they are just doing away with it? I don’t think the RS6’s ever came with the foot swipe thin...

Re: RS6 performance

First question, I’m aware of the ‘cost down’ changes Audi have been sneaking in of late…. As has already been mentioned, no wireless charging tray, no lock car button on tailgate, and no wave your foot under the bumper to open / close tailgate - to be honest, never really used this on my S6. But the...

Re: RS6 performance

Right, time to come out the shadows…. Although I’m a previous C7 RS6 PE owner, I’ve been a bit of an imposter lurking on here for a while now, as I had a ‘22 S6, yes the black pump user! Today that all changed…. Have been aiming for a C8 RS6 for a while now, and when I heard about the Performance I ...

Re: RS6 performance

There appears to be many now appearing on YT these past couple of days, but they all seem to be US based, I assume the UK embargo hasn’t lifted yet, very strange.

Definitely no kick function I can see, starting to look like an idiot waving my foot around ! Is it setting that needs to be enabled?
I know you can disable the keyless door entry function on the MMI, but can’t remember if this also disables the boot opening too.
