Hello, Just bought my first Audi

[AdamH]

My name is Adam, I live in the Fort Wayne area, and I am brand new to Audi. I did a quick search online for some insight and saw this forum first so here I am lol I just bought an 03 RS6 a few weeks ago. It is stock all around from what I can tell, only one owner before me. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and learning as much as possible

[lswing]

Welcome aboard! You got the fastest color, Mugello Blue!

[AdamH]

Thanx lol I do like the color

Welcome dude. I have recently bought mine, same
color only ebony interior. You will love it, it's a unique ride.

[lswing]

Here is mine - 905669

Good score, there seems to be better life with trans and TC's after 905500 or so...updated seals I believe. Are yours both stock, never replaced?

Mileage? With any luck and not tuned you'll get 150k out of it. Maybe look into fluids all around depending on previous records.

A couple things, just to bring you up to speed on your all stock comment, just because I am not sure if you know everything about the car yet. You are missing an RS6 emblem on the front top center grill. And you are missing an aluminum trim surround on the bottom center grill (we all lose/lost that one). The emblem is easy to replace and find. The grill trim is expensive and can't be bought separate from the lower grill assembly. Your wheels are also not stock. Gorgeous looking car though, paint looks great. http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-RS6--4...blem/ES367414/

@ vas160s it is an awesome ride i love it!!

@ lswing mileage is currently just over 122k soooo i'm hoping to get a little more than 150k out of it lol not sure about the seals. I had the car on a lift the other day and searched for leaks everywhere that i could, but did not find any. No service records came with the car unfortunately.

@ Dmb408 I did notice the RS6 badge missing on the grill and saved the link to ecstuning, thanks for that. I did not catch the aluminum trim, i will look into that. As for the wheels i figured they were just stock.

- dealer directory

- owner information about consumer protection laws

- USA warranty

- Sound system audi symphony operating instructions

- Audi telematics by onstar operating instructions

- Quick reference guide

- Maintenance (which has an info card on the inside of the front cover) pic below. I think i understand some of these numbers, can someone explain what these numbers and letters mean?

Those numbers are the "option" and color list for that car.

There is a site that has all the options decoded, google is your friend in that arena.
