After four months of ownership, here's my opinion on the refreshed New Audi RS5 Sportback. Is it worth getting or are other options better? See the changes and judge the significance of them for yourself.

It has launch control, do either a quick push of esc button to put it in sport or a long push to shut it completely off, then mash the gas and brake all the way, need to push the brake heard and it’ll build boost on the gauge give it a few seconds and let off brake and it’ll fly. It’s why your 0-60 times are in the 4.3 range. They’ll be lower if you properly launch

​@@Snowcatsrt Technically you're correct. The car does not have a "launch control" as other cars with a DCT. You can however brake boost while in dynamic, sport transmission and ESC: sport/off, let the boost gauge get full and let go of the brakes... You should see the numbers in the 3.5 0-60mph range.

Was very keen on 2018/19 one of these for a while but then drove a BMW M2 competition and so much more exhilarating, and you have to drive it with skill, not let the car sort you out. And accelerates quicker than your times…..Suppose its what you want out of driving and I have no kids to keep in the back. They go in the wife’s car.

Correction: the car has launch control but I'm an idiot and couldn't figure it out. As you guys have mentioned I need to turn the ESC completely off as well as be in Dynamic/RS mode. I only tested it in RS mode and will do a follow up to clarify. MY BAD 😅
@Turtle-sz7sk
@Turtle-sz7sk 3 года назад
I’d just give the car a break in between runs, the rs5 doesn’t deal with heat well and the differential will heat up along with oil temps after repeat runs which will lead to the car pulling timing which obv won’t help times. Good luck!
@Turtle-sz7sk
@Turtle-sz7sk 3 года назад
And you can put esc in sport which is a single push not a long push which will shut it off completely

@@Snowcatsrt yeah there’s one bottleneck after the next with aftermarket stuff. People have done e85, hybrid turbos, down pipes, intercoolers etc but the cooling always seems to be the limiting factor. And the fact that there isn’t a huge demand for aftermarket parts so companies don’t have a ton of incentive to develope them. If you want to tune and Audi it’s the ttrs or rs3 that people get fast.. I’m going to go with a stage 1 apr 93 flash to wake it up some. Should make it faster without the need for a ton of other hardware and without sacrificing reliability. An intercooler would help with just a flash but apr has told me it isn’t required if you’re cognizant of oil temps and let it cool down between pulls. I just don’t wanna pull the front end apart to install an intercooler lol

Hmm... honestly, it is kinda disappointing ... S5 gives you 98% of RS5 for less, and performance is not super far away. If you say you launch with 3.9-4.3 ... well my stock S5 does 4.1-4.2 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-twrHOof9T0I.html No dis, the car still looks cool, but something is really off with RS5 for the price point.
@Snowcatsrt
@Snowcatsrt Год назад
A lot of people do go for the S over the RS for sure. Later on on i figured out why it was launching slower. Basically 0-60MPH was around 3.6 seconds and when I changed to kph it was around 3.8-3.9. I also turned traction control all the way off and that seemed to help with getting it faster off the line instead of having traction in sport mode.

Excellent review. I own the same exact car (2021 RS5) but in black. Few things I don't like, the fuel consumption is bonkers, the Apple Wireless CarPlay cuts in and out constantly making it nearly useless and the ride is quite firm. But not too much. I've got the squeaking driver's side door panel problem you mentioned in another video. Need to get that fixed. But overall I really love this car and it's my daily driver and the family car with 2 small kids in car seats in the back. I've managed consistent 3.6 second launches. It's a lot of fun. Looking forward to winter with it here in Canada.

A few things I don't really like about my RS5 Sportback that are not mentioned in this video : - The nappa leather is beautiful but the lower bolster on the driver seat will show creases after only a few ingresses/egresses. Every single RS car has it. I am considering gaving these pieces redine in vinyl. - the piano black console in the facelifted B9 is a huge letdown in quality vs the brushed metallic console that was in the prefacelift version. You can introduce microscratches in this material just from your fingers. It is always dusty and with the swirls it looks terrible at night given the dome lights are powerful. - The steel brakes are very squeaky. I did the procedure where you brake 10 times from 100km to zero, it made a huge difference but they will randomly squeak again. - when you put the car in one of the RS modes, the head-up display changes to the RS monitor. I don't like it, and I have to change the setting in a sub-sub menu everytime I restart the car to get rid of it. - The car really does not sound good. Not deal breakers on their own but factors that could sway potential buywrs towards other cars.

I have the Nardo Gray with the high gloss Back Optics option (not to be confused with the much more expensive options with carbon fiber external trim). Looks awesome. Wish the reviewer had read the manual about how to do launch control properly. Most professional reviewers get 3.6-3.7 for 0-60 in for the RS5. Agree with others that wireless connection for Apple Car Play and Android Auto is unreliable, but cable connection is also provided for and very reliable.

I'm considering putting an order in for this car. Been quoted a good price but it's without the dynamic suspension. Our UK Roads can be fairly bumpy with potholes and uneven surfaces, do you think the ride would be too harsh on the stock suspension? I know you spoke about it briefly in the video, just wanted a little more detail :).
@Snowcatsrt
@Snowcatsrt 2 года назад
It all depends on your preferences to be honest. What I find acceptable could be unacceptable for somebody else. I used to have a Renault Megane RS with cup suspension and it was firmer than this but still used it as a daily. I prefer sports cars with a bit more bounce as it suits them but if you're the opposite I would advise to get the adaptive suspension

Try the launch control on another video! You'll be impressed. You need to have the car in dynamic mode, the transmission should be on S mode, then turn off the esc, then you need to mash both pedals all the way to the floor, and let around 2-3 seconds of boost building and let go of the brake. Rs5 does 0-60 in about 3.6 - 3.7 secs.
@Snowcatsrt
