S7 owner here. Be advised that the S6/S7 turbos are cast vs RS7/S8 turbos being billet aluminum. At some point they will fail, but you took care of the main issue with it. I'd recommend doing oil changes every 5k. Even at Audi, the price for an oil change is reasonable. While changing the turbos is more involved, you can get RS7 turbos (cartridge assembly) for a very reasonable price.

Can you tell me more about that turbo-problems? I'm looking forward to get an S7 w/ roundabout 100k-130k kilometers and that is something that really worries me. Changing the turbos aint that cheap, some1 told me :D so I would like to avoid that. can I tweak that somehow?

@@jafaralmusawi8680 no I actually bought me a Mustang GT from 2016. I tested a S7 and with the aisuspension the car felt just like the boat it is. Didn't like it that much (had a tuned TTS before) and therefore I liked the Mustang more. Still, S7 is a nice car but it's not the right car for me personally. Opinions might differ.

@@falkhogan Late in response but there's an extended warranty on the turbos now. Congrats on your Mustang. Yes the S7 is a bit boaty, I think the S5/RS5 Sportback would be a lot more appropriate as those cars have a lot stiffer suspension and are way more nimble on the road. I know a sway bar swap improves the handling on these cars.

Don't forget the two stereo upgrade options: The Bose system (14 speakers/630-watts, but "all highs, no lows, must be Bose") and the Bang & Olufsen system (15-speakers/1,330 watts, but incredibly rare because most S6 owners didn't want to pay the $5,000+ upcharge, apparently). If the tweeters rise up out of the corners of the dash, the car has the B&O system, although the door speaker grills are clearly labeled as well. I couldn't find a Prestige model that had the B&O system, and the Black Optic and Sport Packages were more important to me.

With the Comfort Seats, you definitely want them if you're a big guy. I'm 6'3 240lbs & the regular seats are not long enough for me, so I have to go with Comfort Seats to be able to drive for long distances, which I do frequently. Also, if you care about music at all, B&O is absolutely worth being patient for. Regular Bose & Bose Surround just don't cut it.

My '13 S6 prestige just rolled 119K. Air suspention collapsed two weeks ago so it's in the shop for likely new struts. That's aparently common and although I don't have the dealer estimate left it may run around $6k. PCV went out at 45k, replaced under waranty but it would have been $3,500. I think they did the Turbo TSB as they usually did TSB's where I took it. Turbos are still original. All front bushings (arms) were replaced at 85k. Many bushings were gone. Steering is getting loose again before the front suspention collapse. Motor mounts replaced at about 90K. DSG is getting a bit sluggish, it's showing it's age. I hope it's not going out. APR stage 1, APR DSG tune, suspention inserts, ceramic paint coat. I've had 5 Stoplight drags, 2 were P85D's and we were dead even at 80mph. 1 was a model 3 performance (gapped it easily). The other two wern't even a challenge. As for the Trunk thing, I never knew that. I'll have to check it when I get out of the shop. Also, if you hold the "Lock" on the fob, all windows close. If you hold "unlock" it opens all windows and I think the sun roof as well. The European model is supposed to have a fully automated trunk as some have swapped it out on their American versions. There is also a small compartment on the front of the seats with the crosshatch. When the Seat heater is on high, it changes to medium in 10 minutes. The time can be changed via Vagcom as can the temperature of the heated steering wheel. Only thing I've changed on Vagcom is the "track mode" and added economy mode in drive select. The biggest issue is trying to keep other people from parking 6" away and door dings. GRRRRRR!!!!! Love your wheels. HRE S101's? My dream wheels.

Thanks for the info. Going to get into the C7.5 S6 from my B8.5 S4. Sounds like a fair representation of a ownership through out. I have one question about the DSG, you said that it is sluggish. How many times have you had the DSG serviced if at all? This is due every 40k but many advocate a shortened 35k interval, and when this process is done, the clutch "kiss" points are adjusted which can help with sluggish engagement. Just a thought! Thanks for the S6 insight though. I don't think it's enough to scare me off ownership.

The last one I also had the rear and center differential fluids changed also although I don't think it's required. My shop says to do the front diff is a bigger job and needs a special tool. He didn't want to pay for one since they are almost never serviced and there's not alot of these cars. I belive in over servicing rather than underservicing. Cheap insurance.

Good video, learned some stuff about my 2017 (c7.5) s6 prestige that I didn't know. I've followed ignition tube for years, got my 2014 b8.5 s4 a little over 3 years ago mainly because of this channel, even got the IE intake lol, that was fun but a little over 2 years ago had to upgrade to this prestige s6, then saw this channel did also. Love it! comfort seating, sport pkg, driver assist pkg, bang n olufsen, and best part is whoever built it kept flat bottom steering wheel. Great daily driver. APR stage 1 tuned no other mods and was running mid to upper 11's in the 1/4 last season. Great car!

Nice video and simple walkthrough of features and reliability :) However please note that the C7 does NOT have Matrix LED, this is a common mistake because of the way the headlight is made up of several smaller LED sections (Does look cool though!) MatrixLED were first introduced to A6/A7 with the facelifted C7.5 model. The image shown at 3:28 is just a regular FullLED headlight for C7 A6/A7 with either high or low beam, not matrix :)

I have a 2017 S6 that I picked up in January and have really enjoyed modding it (stage 2 currently). I bought it as a daily driver and more of a cruiser but it’s got great power and ok handling. I like the dual nature of it but, at 4400lbs, this car does not feel like a sports car. I will be installing a rear sway bar at some point but it’s not the best thing to hustle around corners, etc. and IMO the steering is way over-boosted. I’m fortunate to have another manual transmission sports car in the garage. The S6 is the most magic from 1-7/10ths and then falls apart a little bit if you’re really trying to hustle it (except for straight line speed where it excels). Hope this helps you with your decision.

I thought the S6 had automatic trunk, which is good, because I personally prefer to close my trunk manually.

The Prestige model allows you to open and close the trunk remotely, and it's an extremely nice feature.

With the budget you just mentioned, you’re going to have to settle for an S6 with relatively high mileage. Keep in mind, people beat these V8 engines. Just do your due diligence before purchasing (maintenance records, ownership & get your mechanic to look at the car). If a price looks too good to be true, stay away. You need deep pockets to repair this car.

I bought my 13 S6 for $25k out the door at 101k miles at 105k right now and just tuned with integrated engineering and it runs perfectly, just make sure the oil change intervals are done between 3-5k miles and remove the oil screens and you should be good

​@@IgnitionTube If you don't mind me asking, roughly how much does it cost to take out the oil screens? Did you just replace them or have it removed? Didn't see a video on it so i'm assuming that you didn't go the DIY route.

@@user-uq4ly6fp6m That is a really big job, the replacement cost was north of 1500 Euros for me, although the parts are not the most expensive part, it is a very labour intensive job I had the oil separator, oil screen, check valve and gasket replaced. Just removing it will be quite a bit cheaper, but I was advised not to do this (Audi would not have the screen there if it did absolutely nothing). Anyhow quite a few people just removed it and I haven't heard they have any issues.
