    Question Potential C6 buyer .. anything to worry about?

    Hello, A belated Happy New Year to everyone, I'm about to back again to the forum very soon (hopefully) after almost 4 years away from the beast. I'm about to buy 2010 Audi RS6 C6 but I was wondering if there is anything that I have to check or worry about it similar to the issues we had with the C5 (i.e. suspension, tranny..etc). I was also wondering if it is easy to get cheaper parts online for the C6 like we used to do with the C5 (i.e. EBC brake pads, rotors..etc). The car is stock so also wondering if any good reasonable chip tuning can be done as stage 1 without any hard mods.

    Thanks and hope to back soon again, miss you all guys and the forum here

    I think you'll get a better response from rs246.com - since most members here are US-based and will not have first hand knowledge of any issues or tunes.
