Perfect.Just what I needed,a RS7 video in these down times

[@EddieX]

Glad to provide it! Several more coming

I’ve always liked this channel , and ever since you bought your RS7 I’ve been in love ! Keep up the great work , and yes more RS7 videos ! I can’t wait til I buy my own Sepang Blue RS7 Performance !

[@EddieX]

Sepang blue looks amazing 😍

[@Dinger2]

Keep grinding Eddie! Your content is great. Your hard work will pay off my dude

[@EddieX]

Thanks!

[@juanitoelbandito8503]

damn bruh that rs7 is sexy af.

[@EddieX]

Agreed 🙌

[@lexus0829]

Thanks for the review im thinking of buying one or an S8 ... also from what I read turbos are covered by state's emission warranty just in case your filter issue destroys your turbos...

[@jasonno2953]

What is actually causing the screens to clog?what are they clogging with? Congealed oil? Or metal shavings?

[@troytruong8246]

I know few things about it. 1. Overpriced pos 2. Reliability is shit 3. Ignorants buy them 4. High maintenance n repairs 5. Have buyers remorse in the end

[@EddieX]

It's an amazing daily, a bit overkill but epic haha. Thanks!

[@Noljang]

That cold start was weak :( Do you have any plans for exhaust mod?

[@EddieX]

Haha it could definitely be louder. Was planning on milltek non res catback. But probably won't do it since it's being sold soon.

[@blakeulziibat1524]

[@EddieX]

Nothing performance oriented. Just a more practical daily driver and film vehicle

EddieX what why? Is it boring driving the Audi every day?

[@a.c.6475]

Hmm!.....have you ever thought of custom hood louvers for the rs , better heat dissipation?

[@hardipusa]

can you do a video on which radar detector is best/ and how to use it? also what do the bands mean? thansk

Nice vid bro

[@luisfabriciogarbato9656]

Bought one RS7 2016 with 33.000 miles from Audi Austi North, a week ago, car's back at the dealer because of a leak in the back. :(

[@roycheng5962]

Hi mate, nice video and thanks for sharing!! I just went to a mechanic shop yesterday for a road worthy test, the notice me there are oil and water leak underneath the engine, so based on what you mentioned in the video, it seems like its a common issue that most RS7 have? If so does it effect any performance of the car or will it cost any problem? Hope to see your reply. Many thanks.

[@EddieX]

As far as I know that's not a known issue... Any fluid leaks are a serious cause for concern, absolutely will effect performance and reliability and cost $$$ to fix.

[@rc7016]

Has it been released yet? Not available in Canada.

[@EricnotwithaK]

My guy absolutely had to have the B&O system but didn’t absolutely have to have the Akropivic exhaust ? I mean, it’s America. Everyone is entitled to their desired preferred options but “absolutely needing” a $5k sound system because of “cool tweeters” coming out of dash but not “absolutely needing” a $9k exclusive titanium and very rare exhaust option does say very much about how you choose options on cars and what type of a car guy you are. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@EddieX]

Akrapovic wasn’t available on non-performance RS7 You also realize I bought this used right

[@EricnotwithaK]

@@EddieX bought mine used. 2017 model. Did the correct research. As a grease monkey, knew exactly what was important to me, and what was trivial. This of coarse being a very expensive niche type performance sedan and all. I dunno ……. I guess what I’m trying to say is if I was buying an A8, or in general, a car that was oriented and themed towards luxury I could understand why B&O is important. But on a car like an RS7 ? …. I guess I’m kinda the opposite of you & can’t really understand how you said the B&O system on this car was a must. No less because you thought it was cool that tweeters popped up out the dash as the reason. That’s a must for you on a car like an RS7 ?!? yikes!!! I actually wanted the downgraded BOSE audio system and l always keep the volume on low …… so I have the symphonic melody , burbles, crackles, and pops of that special RS7 engine. People get special cars but I always said it’s not the car that defines the buyer. It’s the options that are a must for those car buyers that tell you exactly who those buyers are.

[@EddieX]

@@EricnotwithaK I hope you enjoy your RS7

[@michaelt.6986]

What year did they correct the oil screen issue on the RS7?

[@vizualbandit5331]

Curious question: Why havent you reviewed or considered the 2018 Audi S8+ ?

[@EddieX]

Just haven't had a chance to drive one yet. I did briefly consider a S8+ when I couldn't find an rs7 in the spec I wanted. It's an awesome car with a bit more luxury, but I like the appearance and aggression of the rs7 more

[@opium42069]

S8 plus doesn't look as ganster as the rs7 though

[@opium42069]

C7 RS6 and RS7: ganster sleepers

[@noahl9193]

Looking to get an rs7! Very helpful video Eddie! Do you think it is worth it to get the 2017 rs7 performance over lets say your model?

[@ares1469]

No doubt, it’ll be cheaper too

[@minircdude]

Audi rs7 and rs6 have a completely different 4.0t than the s6 s7 and a8/s8 i didn't know this till I watched a video from audi explaining it but the motor themselves are not the same

[@Coldheart1903]

I was thinking of getting these exact wheels for my S5...glad I did not.

[@delanobeek]

What’s the best radar detector out there ?need one for my gti

[@EddieX]

Uniden R7, escort max 360 or the new valentine v1 would be my choices. Then use my discount for a BlendMount!

[@reneecegray8395]

What song is in the beginning of the video?

[@leetoza4362]

Unfortunately the wave brakes are trash and get warped for nothing. I'm on a barely 2k km set and they are ruined again. Hybrid turbo RS6 ('15 plate face-lift). Think I'm going to give Girodisc a crack next.

Hahaha also good reason

[@businesshacks1016]

Does the rs7 have massaging seats or would u need to get a S8 for that

[@EddieX]

With the comfort seating package you get massage and cooled seats. But they look like sofas

[@ryansladic3909]

Eddie i just killed the transmission in my S6 and was quoted 15k to fix it are you proud of me

[@EddieX]

Why would I be proud. I fear for your bank account 😔

[@sladdypatty4535]

EddieX you should be proud because I doubt any of your other subscribers can say that. And another reason you should be proud, wrecked a M4 right beforehand

[@urnuckingfutz2]

Eddie, dont you have a R8 as well?

[@EddieX]

I used to. Sold it over a year ago

[@kanervatie]

I didn't know it's a V6. Always thought it's with the same V8 as the RS6.

[@EddieX]

It is a V8?! When did I say V6 haha. Same powertrain as the rs6

[@SMP47356]

That cold start was just sad bro

[@REMYLEONEL]

More surface area ? 😂

[@EddieX]

Yes. That's one of the features of wave brakes, however negligible. Helps with heat dissipation

[@CoandaImageServices]

How does removing material increase the surface area? Seems counterintuitive.

[@EddieX]

@@CoandaImageServices the curved surface has more exposed to air for heat rejection. Imagine you have a straight line going from point A to point B, the distance is 1ft. Now if the line curves down in the middle (the material being removed), now the total length of the line is longer. Same thing occurs with the surface area.

[@CoandaImageServices]

EddieX Interesting. Airflow in a wheel arch is normally a turbulent mess. Does the car have any kind of ducting to promote airflow to the center of the rotor? The primary advantage of the design seems to come from slightly reduced unsprung weight, but disadvantaged by the rotor’s reduced ability to absorb heat through mass. I suspect the annulus has also been slightly narrowed, and doing so on the outer edge slightly reduces braking torque compared to a constant-radius rotor’s wider annulus. Given the cost, it seems to offer minimal bang for my bucks.

[@REMYLEONEL]

@@CoandaImageServices that is a waste of of money.
