1: I had a similar issue with the start stop. turns out I just wasn't pressing the bakes hard enough. Start stop activates depending on how much brake pressure you apply. 2: the vents they cover at the front of the car can't open anymore, if they did the car would actually preform worse. its a weird balance they have to strike between design and functionality. Every other complaint I 100% agree with. 👍

I drive the 2019 RS5 and I have ceramic brakes on it and close to 6,000 miles on it, I can only imagine the angst of squeaky brakes for such a powerful car. It is very fun to drive and look at. Good review for the 2021, I think I will wait to see what they will come out next. I do like that there is a touch screen with the newer ones and they may integrate the indash screens in the RS5 like the 2022 A6.

As for the power complaint just wait for your tunes and aftermarket turbos. Tunes alone will get you almost 100hp more with loads of torque, the pop up infotainment is going away for safety reasons. If you have a backup camera then you have to have it active before a certain time period or before you start going into reverse. The pop up screen was eliminated due to this reason.

RS5 is amazing but The biggest problem with the RS5 is the S5, Audi made the S5 too good and now with the face lift it looks more like the RS5 as well. Of course the RS5 is better but for half the payments you can have an S5 that's 80% as good as the RS5. Audi should take a page from BMW how they differentiate their true M products from their "M powered products."

They are way too close to the front of the controls, and if you put any large cups in there they get in the way of the buttons and even bang into the buttons. 🤯🤯🤯

Habibi. You can turn off the start stop on the engine. Press the A with the circle next to your drive select. No more auto shut off which I find annoying as hell on my 21 S5. Only thing though you have to remember to always press it when you turn on the ignition. If you didn’t know this already… now you do, hope you enjoy. Beautiful car brother.

Agree. Would be nice if it was better integrated into the center stack. But the whole screen going up and down thing is just silly. You use the screen almost all the time even for simple functions so having it retract into the dash does not make a lot of sense.

@Just Ty At 25k miles, 0 issues. The interior has held up great, mechanicals and electrical systems working as they should with no hiccups. Two bits of advice: 1) get the front of the car paint protected (PPF) abs 2) if you get the Black Optic Pkg 20" wheels change the tires from Continentals to Michelin Pilots. The ride is 10 times better, and handling is better. And with the added sidewall, much more protection of the rims. Also, get the tire and wheel along with maintenance warranties.

The RS5 Sportback is the best GT car for under $100K USD. I agree with the power comment but Audi's make use of the power better than M/AMG counterparts.

You are right that they are efficient to som extent but with the stricter regulations coming through and more safety requirements translating to more weight.. they could have foreseen this problem. Unless they knew about it but were upselling the more expensive models

Lmao you wouldn’t even be able to hear it without the soft limiter either. Not even with a friggen aftermarket exhaust. They remapped the cylinder firing in the tune. So even with performance exhaust and valves stuck open 100% of the time, it still sounds like a euro bitch mobile instead of an RS car. Imagine getting a brand new 2019 RS3 delivered, seeing the emissions on your window sticker before buying and thinking US cars were safe, then hearing your new toy sound like it’s powered by a hamster running on a wheel. Yeah, fuck you Audi.

@@Snowcatsrt Quick AF to upshift, but not so much to downshift. Torque converter automatics are great if you're focused on 1/4 mile times at the drag strip. The DSG (and DCT's in general) are much better for road racing, where your focused on the corners. Another great feature that the DSG in my RS3 has (C8 also can do this) is that they will jump down to the lowest possible gear if you hold the paddle instead of sequentially hitting each gear. Same on up-shifts, but I've never needed to use that. I'm pretty sure your automatic can't do either.
