Hey guys I'm really considering buying an RS6 but I'm very worried that the tranny will fail on me. I test drove this example with 51k miles and it shifted very well, I'm wondering if I just do a MTM TCU chip it will increase the life of the transmission?
Here is the car: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Audi-RS6-Base-Sedan-4-Door/ 251572175006?_trksid=p2046732. c100040.m2060&_trkparms=aid% 3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED% 26ao%3D1%26asc% 3D20140107095009%26meid% 3D7969738333124468623%26pid% 3D100040%26prg% 3D20140107095009%26rk%3D4% 26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D151336712686
Here was one other car that I saw with 80k miles but it had an upgraded IPT Transmission. I just don't like the fact that it has 30k more miles, here is that one:

Do I go for the car with lower mileage and a later VIN or the car with the earlier VIN, more miles and the upgraded tranny? If you guys could give me any advice I would really really appreciate it!
