Can always eBay....buyin' sellin'. To me it's about bang for the buck. If I had unlimited $$, I wouldn't be driving this. But this is the fastest thing I can afford, and I love it!

e-Bay price+S&H to Japan......
I hear you....if I have unlimited $$$$, I would keep C5RS6 and get C7RS6 (of course without DRC!!), hehehe.
I tried C6RS6, sure it has juice but I like C5 better somehow. I guess more fun to drive for me.
But the reality is that I have to deal with my financial situation like you do.
I am trying to figure out to save money to fix the problem.
If I take my car to an Audi dealer, they will rip me off badly.
I will get necessary parts from the US and have mechanic fix the problem.
That way, I will be able to fix the problem with the same $ as buying parts in Japan!!

My oil cooler was leaking coolant about a month ago.
The dealership did a pressure test on the coolant system and the oil cooler tube was cracked and there was a hole in the radiator.
Start with the cheapest first... do a pressure test on the coolant system...
You already know the coolant system leaks. There is oil in it. Unless it's not oil.
If your Engine Oil is clean, I am pretty sure its your Water to Oil cooler. Somehow Engine Oil gets into the coolant system and not Vice-Verse, Probably due to Pressure differences. Bad news is that the Bentley Manuel Says Engine Removal in order to replace. Hope that's not the Case. Good luck...........................
One more thing. If you mixed pink/purple coolant with some domestic sh*t, it will turn into a brown sludge.
Hmm, Tozo's point is very interesting. Drain your coolant, refill with genuine Pentosin and see what happens. Maybe no leak at all.
But even before that, do what Ben916 suggests and do that coolant test. If it doesn't leak, someone put some "domestic s#1t" in your coolant and you really have no oil in your system.
Refill, relax, enjoy!
Pentofrost, not Pentosin. Yikes!
I wish I didn't know so much about Pentosin and Pentofrost...well it's good to know, but I really don't want to see them in my driveway again! Good luck with the repairs...
Resolution? Inquiring minds want to know.
