AUDI RS6 ENGINE OIL GUIDE

QUICK INFORMATION ABOUT AUDI RS6

• The first and second versions of the RS 6 were offered in both Avant and saloon forms.
• Like all Audi ‘‘RS‘‘ models, the RS 6 pioneers some of Audi`s newest and most advanced engineering and technology, and so could be described as a halo vehicle, with the latest RS 6 Performance having the equal most powerful internal combustion engine out of all Audi models, with the same horsepower and torque as the physically larger Audi S8 Plus.
• Like all S and RS models, the RS 6 is only available with Audi’s ‘trademark’ Torsen-based quattro permanent four-wheel drive system.
• The seventh and current (as of January 2010) Quattro GmbH model is the latest Audi C6 RS 6.
• The original Audi C5 RS 6 Quattro (Typ 4B) was the top-of-the-line user of the Volkswagen Group C5 platform (1997–2004), and was initially available as a five-door five-seat Avant – Audi’s name for an estate or station wagon.
• Derived from the Audi C5 S6 (itself derived from the Audi C5 A6), the RS 6 also shares the aluminium structure from the firewall and forward with the C5 A6s with V8 engines (A6 4.
• For the C5 RS 6 powertrain detail, the engine is an all-aluminium alloy 4,172 cubic centimetres (254.
• 2-litre V8, variable inlet valve timing, and twin turbochargers gave the RS 6 an exceptionally wide power band, with peak torque available from 1,950 to 5,600 rpm.
• The RS 6 was only available with Audi’s Torsen-based Quattro permanent four-wheel drive, utilising the Torsen T-2 dynamic ‘automatic torque biasing’ (ATB) centre differential (diff), a modified unit which was being used in the 6.
• There were a total of three original equipment manufacturer (OEM) wheel and tyre types available with the RS 6.
• Between April 2004 and September 2004, there was a final limited run of an even higher-performance RS 6, named the Audi RS 6 Plus.
• The additional performance was achieved with a new engine control unit (ECU), and two additional coolant radiators behind the side-mounted intercoolers (these were standard fitment on the standard RS 6 in hotter climate countries).
• The RS 6 Plus came with Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) as standard, and also included a no-cost option of ‘‘Sports Suspension Plus‘‘, which lowered the standard sports suspension by a further 10 millimeters
• The total production run of the C6 RS 6 was 8,000 units, with 6,500 of these being Avants and the remainder saloons.
• The RS 6 was not available in North America, leaving the Audi S6 as the top-performing trim there.
• (The unpopularity of wagons made it unlikely that the RS 6 Avant would be imported, and although it had been rumored that the RS 6 sedan would be offered in the United States, nothing came of this as the RS 6 importer could not clear US regulations).
• However the estimated price of the RS 6 sedan in 2010 was $160,000 USD (another source quotes $126,000 USD in 2009, making the RS 6 perhaps too expensive for the United States market) which set it apart from the performance variants of other executive cars: the MSRP of BMW M5’s was $85,700 USD, of Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG’s was $87,700 USD, and of Audi’s own S6 was $78,025 USD.
• The C6 RS 6 Avant was launched in April 2008, and the four-door saloon/sedan was available from August 2008.
• Visually, the RS 6 differed from the related S6, having flared front and rear wheel arches (fenders), harking back to the original Audi Quattro, to allow for a wider wheel track.
• Like all Audi ‘‘RS‘‘ models, the RS 6 is fitted with Audi’s ‘trademark’ Quattro permanent four-wheel drive as standard.
• This version of the RS 6 uses the latest asymmetric dynamic 40:60 front-to-rear default torque distribution from the Torsen T-3 ‘automatic torque biasing’ (ATB) centre differential.
• Like the previous RS6 and the B7 RS 4, this generation of RS 6 includes Audi’s ‘‘Dynamic Ride Control‘‘ (DRC) Sports suspension system.
• The C7 RS 6 was not offered in North America, however that market received RS 7 Sportback which shares the same powertrain and platform.
