Newbie saying hello===

Post by tonyh » Mon Jul 25, 2005 8:39 am

Hi all,
test drove a RS6 saloon at w-e and loved it. I've had a quick look at the archives for answers to some questions i had; one big one remains, though. Servicing costs and specifically timing belt change intervals. Was this question resolved ? I really want to buy a RS6 but have no desire to replicate my 355 Ferrari service costs on my daily driver.

Try posting in the RS6 forum.

I guess it will be similar to the RS4, so be prepared for timing belt at 40K. Also plugs need changing every 20K (I think). Also it's probably got wide wheels so tyres might be costly. Other than that I doubt the RS6 maintenance costs are much higher than any other Audi.
