Should you buy a twin-turbo V10 Audi RS6 C6? 

Great video guys. Thanks.

Hahaha brilliant, these cars really test ones patience! I have two, bought a donor car in appalling state to fix my crash damaged facelift 2010. I have to learn on the fly and sadly no hoist to assist with engine out. Still worth it in my books when you can easily smash past 300kph!

Thank you gentlemen, honest vid good stuff.

any chance of doing a short vid on the black Charger,? am an old Mopar ead from way back and would love to see more of it

Hi Ricky! question. Can you delete the balancing shaft from an Audi S6/S8 5.2 V10 and just use an idle gear instead? Love your shop, your guys, your content. Thanks! Debbie.

Think I’ll still get the car because it’s my favourite car of all time 😂

The old 2.2 20V Turbo lives longer with 600+ hp than this 5.0 V10 Biturbo! Think about that.

Great video, especially coming from someone thinking about either a C6 RS6 or the W212 M156-based E63 AMG.

He Ricky. Big fan of your work!! Any chance of making a similiar vid for an R8 V8? Thanks

I’ve been looking for one for 2 years and still haven’t found the right one. It’s got to the point where I’m seeing the same cars come back up for sale with different owners. I’m holding out for the perfect one.

I've done valve springs on one 2 days lab engine out an in think part was about £18

Would love to see a video on said GR Yaris!!

Hello there would you be able to share your opinion on hybrid or electric cars please. I can only imagine that you're not keen on them but would love to hear opinion of top professional. Once again thank you for great channel and content keep up great work.

Looks Awesome 😆

Как раз собирался купить RS6 C6 со сломанным мотором, но послушав вас думаю что ее время уже прошло. Думал только у нас запчасти долго ждать ))

What was the price for the labour?

Hello I have removed the gearbox twice on my rs6 v10 without removing the engine

Great advice👍🏾👍🏾. Ever want to find out what a cars like to own watch a video of a mechanic working on one. It’ll change your mind on buying one 😂

Thanks for the sound consumer advice. There are sweet spots in the performance car market. Always thought tuning a B7 S4 was probably a smarter move for your wallet than the TS4. It is a shame about the C6 RS6 because the bottom ends on those V10's are meant to be good for 1200hp!

Just changed my mind real quick. Weighing up chucking away my tuned saab for a car thats quick stock because I'm tired of fixing it on my drive every 5 minutes but looks like this would be the same story but more money each time. A nice w211 e55k might have to do it then. Any suggestions of a reliable fast estate in the 15-25 range that isn't a maintenance, engine out nightmare?

Carls face and reaction tells you everything you need to know. "Oh, god !, not another one of these to work on"

Sound great, Very easy to tune but absolute pigs when they go wrong and you need deep pockets to keep them going. C7 RS6 is on my list once my F80 /m3 goes.

Tout est vrai!!! merci de confirmer le cauchemar, que peut représenter ce type de véhicule .

This is my dream car since I saw Richard Hammond drive it on Top Gear, I've just picked up the exact car in Sepang Blue with low miles/owners with the carbon ceramics. MOT tester said the steering rack has play which has now given me the fear after watching this video, Also has an oil leak as I can smell it after a hard run. Do I do the work or get rid for an RS3 🤔

Random question, would the RS6 (buh) engine fit to a Graziano S tronic transaxle without modifications

Taking engines out is a good way of determining the tensile strength of anything you've not disconnected ...... 😂😂 P.S 1.0 ecoboost is an engine out to do a cam belt (Easiest way anyhow), don't mention wet cam belts or disintegrating oil pump belts or a blown cylinder head gasket on the middle pot due to losing a cup full of coolant ( gets the hottest due to the stoooopid inhead exhaust manifold so pops first)

What do you do to the gearboxes on these?, the input shaft is quite strong.

Why don't you replace these coolant and connectors with more generic durable parts to avoid being financially destroyed? The 996s (coolant hoses) and BMW N63s have that problem with coolant hoses where you pay 2,000$ for otherwise 120$ worth of silicone hoses and T's if you replaced them .

no buy rs6 c6... right? but yes to buy rs6 c7?

So I shouldn't mate this engine to a manual transmission and put it in a B5? Got it.

As someone who has rebuilt an R53 and removed the engine multiple times, seems like business as usual.

Audi should throw these engines in a new SUV model to rival the G-Wagon

These were my thoughts if it has not been maintained religiously ahead of time don't do it , if they have its a great car .

Well worth it though lol

10mm spanner ftw

Moral of the story, don’t buy one because they’re hard to fix

but the c7 blows the engine i heard some engine failures in foruns. maby the c8 better

So the e60 M5 is still a better buy after all 🙂

Japanese stuff, 10mm spanner 😂

i dont care..i stil want one.i will make this alot CHEAPER..i will learn how to be a mechanic and buy a workshop and some specialist tools.😂🤣😂

30k lol...worse than the C63 monstrosity

what a silly car, just LS swap it. cheaper than a service

Fnck!!! Another car on the never gonna buy list 😎

corrrr terrible. music
