Elsawin Workshop Guides

Post by Mɐʇʇ » Thu Jan 09, 2020 8:41 pm

PDF Workshop Guides
password to open everything is rs246.com

These pdfs of the main workshop guides that I find useful. They're printouts from the elsawin pages. Elsawin
  • Here's a full zip of elsawin that you can download and install.
  • Following the instructions is important and after maybe 6 months it does seem to need un and re installing. But it's fine, it works.
  • It has a lot more than just the RS6 in too.

If anyone has any requests, post below and I'll add more.

Very valuable docs. BZ. I have the Bentley manual (not to my liking) which at least has some RS6 stuff included. I also have the B5 manual but no RS4 inc as the Yanks didn't get it. Two ton of paper with generally little of use inside.

Big ta to Matt for this. I've not really thought about it until now but the RS6 injects another level into RS ownership and the info is a lifesaver.

Installed on my 11 inch laptop for VCDS that is always with the Audi I'm driving. Voodoo type stuff but so far lugging it around has meant I've never needed it. It's already found me an answer to a question that has puzzled me, where is the engine number? Now I know. The Sticker on the cam belt cover is not an ideal thing to present to the authorities when proving the Eng No is that listed on the papers.
