So the Range Rover wasnt a great buy but, this definately is :/

[Herr Flick]

Yep, Stage one Revo map. Probably not going to help the longevity of the gearbox. lol.

 

[Dave..]

Have you priced up a pair of turbos as well? This is one of the reasons I went for a B5 S4. It's only fractionally more expensive than I can afford, rather than exceptionally more

 

[MaLicE]

Stage one? Surely that isn't the stock exhaust then?

 

[Herr Flick]

Pretty sure it is. Haven't seen any markings etc on the pipes.

 

[_Tom]

I'd only rather an M5 for reliability. IMO, the RS6 wins in every other department!

No, you're wrong. A M5 is driven with the correct wheels only.

 

[Herr Flick]

What?

 

[Waitey]

RWD > 4WD

 

[Herr Flick]

Oh, gotcha. That's not right but everybody is entitled to their opinion.

 

[_Tom]

Oh, gotcha. That's not right but everybody is entitled to their opinion.

Exactly. It's just mine which doesnt count. Especially as a drive a diesel and you drive an RS6.

 

[Herr Flick]

A 10 year old RS6 tho.

Struggling to decide what to do about the exhaust..

Swap it for a gearbox.

 

[Bluebeard]

Oooh! Yeah you have a point.

 

[Herr Flick]

Seems every fucker on the RS forum has a Milltek FFS. Surely there must be alternatives. Powerflow custom exhaust anyone? Lol.

 

[Bluebeard]

Surely everyone has a miltek because miltek are good??

 

[Dave..]

Surely everyone has a miltek because miltek are good??

Over priced, crack and aren't that much of an improvement over stock.

The other common exhausts are toyosport. Which are made out of monkey metal.

My advice would be to seek out somewhere that does custom exhausts to a high standard. Not powerflow, somewhere like JP exhausts that manufactured a famous 182 system.

 

[Herr Flick]

I would assume so but I can't believe there is only one manufacturer in the whole world that can make a decent exhaust..

Hopefully the car is sound and I can order one ASAP. Leanne will have a massive hissy fit when I tell her I've spent a grand on an exhaust for a car that will no doubt be sold a week after.

 

[Bluebeard]

Gloom.

​Christ. Your pint half empty again?

 

[Englebert]

Braver man than me! Remember looking into an old RS4 and i almost shat myself at the potential list of (expensive) issues.

Did the Warranty Direct website crash when you put in the car's details?

HAHA. Something like that. There warranties are almost as useless on these as a 3 month warranty from a independant dealer.

They wanted £1044 for the year and it won't cover any of the expensive stuff like DRC/gearbox etc. Better off praying and buying an exhaist. lol.

Sales of Goods Act. Get rid before your protection runs out lol

Did think about that. Audi are checking it over for me so I will soon know if its a good example or if it will be a one week stop car.

FLOL! LAD!!!!

Plenty of VAG specialists round fairly locally too - TotalVAG in Leighton, Inde-Tech and VAG Tech in MK that we've used / come recommended to us. I'd use any of those to give the car a once over versus using Audi!

 

[Herr Flick]

Audi are doing it for free.

Tidy, how's that then? I'll retract the above until you need servicing or go faster bits then!

 

[Dave..]

​Christ. Your pint half empty again?

As always x

 

[Herr Flick]

I sort of work for them and know one of the techs quite well. (used to know him quite well and just so happened to bump into him on Monday lol.)

 

[Lal B3N]

Meerkat custom exhaust. Although depends on your location.

Hes done a couple of rs6s and rs4s and they always sound epic.

 

[-J-]

Rich, EMP over in St Albans are pretty good for custom exhausts.

Down in the old 'Top Gear Powerflow' site.

Mate had one put on his Megane 225 and its pretty good quality, it did snap a mount but they fixed it no quibbles under the warranty.

I was going to call them in the morning. Spoke to them when I was thinking of getting one on the RR.

I think they do quite a lot of VAG stuff, there's always plenty of 'scene' cars parked about down at their workshop.

I'm sure they can supply something suitably classy but sounds amazing.

Where the f**k have you been fennder-bender?

 

[Waitey]

Where the f**k have you been fennder-bender?

​Doing blow and hookers in the NSX while giving people Bollinger enemas?

 

[_Tom]

Prospeed would be a good shout for a custom exhaust depending where in the UK you are.. I guess if its over 100 miles away it's cost you £200 in fuel though..lol

They want £1200. f**k right off.

 

[-J-]

Ouch! Think the Megane was about £500.

Maybe a case of baller car, baller costs lol

If you're near london, pop into Alan at solid fabrications.

 

[RDH]

Or keep the the exhaust as it is? Sounds good enough to me.
