Thoughts about this one?

Post by Finbullet » Sat Mar 14, 2020 7:12 am

Hi.

New here and i’m thinking about buying rs6 -14
https://www.scc.fi/vaihtoauto/Audi/rs6/ ... ma/CLN782/

Sorry about the language cuz its finnish :lol:

Anyway I took test ride yesterday and I have a kind of mixed feelings about this car.

1. Low rpm jerk/hesitation/pullin when going uphill. If I understood right the cause might be because of a bad spark plug? Anything else?

2. Interior quality, especially dash. Currently im driving 2018 MB E-class.

3. It has normal springs so meaning less breakable stuff but when putting to dynamic the car feels like it bounces when driving. I guess this is normal?

4. Dealer told that the previous owner changed both turbos few thousand km ago to. Normaly these will give up around 100 tkm. Is it just one time or am i expecting to buy new turbos when hitting 200 tkm?

5. I feel like this car two different characters. When driving with comfort its relaxed cruising with deep exhaust sounds. When putting dynamic everything changes. Feels like the beast has woken up.

Dont know.. should i just say <beep> it and buy it?
Currently vehicle is MB E 220d 4matic so there is a big bumb up with the Hp almost 500 since Rs6 is tuned.

Anything else that I should notify when going to look that car again?

200.000km and turbos will fail? Who knows if car heavy tuned maybe.

M5 is not an option. I need avant/wagon etc.. because of a dog. MB E-class 63 amg would be another option.
