Audi c7 rs6 get r-tronic or s-tronic ?
My Gagare
08 RS6 Avant full stock
11 Gallardo LP560-4 (COMING)
Or maybe Tiptronic?
5 Audis so far...currently:
2007 Audi A4 B7 2.0 TDI Multitronic
For my money, I want S tronic. Remember, there's not TC to fail in this auto (although other parts will probably fill this void). Just 2 things I would like about the paddles:
1) faster shifts, I want that gear to change before I let go of the paddle.
2) mount the paddles on the column, for a race car the paddles on the wheel make sense as you usually don't move you hands on the wheel. But on a road car, I want column.

I have been reading up on the difference.
From what I gather the R-Tronic has a single electronic clutch and basically does what your left foot would do when you move the shifter?
And the S-tronic is a dual clutch system?

r tronic is a manual, not?

Dual clutch for sure, though that said I wouldn't complain if it were a traditional automatic, so good are they now.
Hanging the tail out is Vanity
but choosing AWD is Sanity
The S tronic(dsg) box is an auto. It doesn't have a torque converter and rather, has a dual clutch system. Its pretty much like having 2 manual transmissions in one case. It is much smoother and faster than a traditional auto with a TC. And "tiptronic" just refers to the mode you put it in to change gears yourself via center stick or paddles. It is not another "type" of transmission.

if they put DRC in the new RS6, they can keep it.
