RE: Re: RE: Seat discomfort

this was my main complaint of the RS6 while i had her. Always felt uncomfortable on long drives of an hour plus and couldnt find a way of curing it.

it was an improvement when i moved to the CSL buckets even though they have a rep of being awful for bigger blokes (arses)

Re: RE: Evo Track day in my RS6

Have been tempted to take the RS6 to bedford autodrome on the 3mile GT circuit .... but am afraid of the post-track day costs ..... discs/pads/tyres + potential other failures .... which would make it one very expensive session! Only reason I want to do it is to find the outer limits of the car, an...

RE: Re: RE: Re: Suspension suspect?

DRC my guess as well.

My old RS6 had a liitle bit of a knock and squirm under power so I toook it in and said it was all over the place and they found two leaks.

Re: Hey guys...hope your keeping well

Hi guys It's been about 4 months since I sold my RS6 and I have to say I miss it. What a car, epic. Still love my CSL though, its a keeper, I'll never sell it. Seems busy in here these days. Loved the meet pics. So who is totally underwhelmed by the S6? I am. Likewise. Just sold the RS6 and had the...

no

i pretend that i bought the plate off van morrison but really the wife bought an old Merc 500SL (sue ellen version) with the plate on and we have kept it ever since. NO reason I guess other than I suppose we buy cars 1-3 years old and this hides tha age a little

must admit that M5 to RS6 the noise got better and then to CSL its just a dream. On the A1M in the Hatfield tunnel I can just scare people for fun. RS6 V8 growl was great but better appreciated as the wife drove off up the road in it rather than at the drivers wheel. I would love a reminder of the e...

owned both. m5 for 4 years and RS6 for 1 year and selling. RS6 is much easer to get the power down and has superb grip on all roads but overall loved the M5 and I thought the power delivery and balance of the car even though it is heavy (not heavier) made the M5 a better car. The audi was just too e...

Re: RE: RS6 - Ownership Advise Needed

Thanks for you reply Steve. I think I am pretty sold on it being the right choice. Cars are for driving and enjoying, rather than just cleaning and polishing etc. Absolutely they are for driving I have done about 21k miles in the 11 months I have had mine and becuase mainly motorway miles it have b...

RE: Alloy Wheel Refurbishment

the WW guy that did mine was all knowing. Just make sure he does the whole wheel I guess to get it even.

otherwise should be easy
