RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

Hello fellow members! I've still got my RS6 avant, which I've had for 4 years and counting. It's covered 59000 miles so far. I no longer have a budget to use it all the time. So rather than selling, I just keep the mileage down by using my van to commute to work. The car is a standard 450hp model an...

Hi Grizz, whilst your still technically with the C5 clan, can I just ask what happened to your car, which warranted changing the gearbox? The reason I ask, is in 2 weeks time my C5 will be out of it's 3 Audi Warranty I had as part of my purchase. I've always had a little niggle with the way my box p...

Hi Greg, hopefully it's not me suffering from too much wine, but I didn't read a reply to your query on the menu button, which covered the actual use of the MENU button and the DIS screen it controls?? If you've been fiddling and found out what you can do by now, then move on, but if you haven't, th...

Hi guys, jeez, that forum trail quickly went off onto a personal level didn't it? :D What the heck though, if you can't have a larf, then it ain't worth it is it. Dear 'Moocher of the Cornish variety' and 'Mr. Gardiner', I have been contacted by the 'Jedi Brake Master' - "Mr. Grizz" to chat to him a...

Hello chaps! A big thanks to you all for your comments, I'm relieved to hear you have all made similar observations towards needle behaviour, as I no longer feel I need to bother my dealer about it and your comments made both amusing and worthwhile reading. Here's the Jerry Springer style closing co...

Hi Stuart, It's possible you've been spoilt by your Jags, as I'm a tad disappointed with the way my gearbox behaves, as well. It would be nice to meet the engineers / designer of the box and give them a chance to explain themselves, or give them a good talking too ;0) There is a slight hesitance on ...

Dear David & Turbonutter, Thanks for your comments and I agree that the computer side of the display along with cold starting will indeed produce lower ranges - it does this to me every morning and then rises as I gently drive along to warm the car up. I'm not bothered by this and like you have lear...

Hello readers, I'm not trying to convince anyone that this is the perfect match, but anyone who has fancied the RS6 + 's Titan grey wheels on their cars, may well be interested in this option. I priced up a set of 4 new genuine alloys, along with the tyre pressure sensors & centre caps for my car vi...

Hello fellow forummers!! Here's a new one for you - Do you have a fuel gauge that enjoys going to the left overnight? What the pheck am I on about you ask? Well obviously these cars are keen drinkers, in fact I ought to call mine Oliver, as it's got a thirst just like Mr. Reed had. But seriously, Fr...

Hello members! Right, if you've been in anyway interested in this 10/11 month old story, then I thought you'd appreciate a final conclusion of what the outcome was. Very quickly outlining the script - I had PS2 Michelins with canvas showing on the inside edges. The aUDI dealer fitted fresh Pirelli P...

Well Hello fellow RS6 comrades! I haven't had a good natter for a while, for which I apologise, I'm going to finish off my findings on my tyre / tracking issues from 12 months ago on another section, but the times coming up for me to get into replacing my brakes and I'd like to call on you wise blog...

Hi Lig! I'll take your comments into account, as the signs of your centres wearing quicker on your car, would suggest that lower pressures are the way to go. The whole front tyre thing for me and going against the manufacturers pressures dates back well over a decade. Basically, I've had many 3 litr...

Hello Nikt! I've had the same problem occur in the past. The reply from skiwi is ultimately what I had to do. If you take it to a dealer with said VAGCOM diagnosis equipment, they'll quickly be able to plug in their display module, scan through the sensors and actually be able to tell you which sens...

Hi Grant, hope everything is well with you n your beast! A big hello goes to the other readers too. Well, the story of the tyre problem, concluded last month when I finally came to a negotiated agreement with my Audi dealer about costs and the issues of tyre wear. I've had a fair bit of work and exp...
