Morning, all-
Just found this forum, what a great resource!
Picking up an '07 //S6 this week, and looking forward to contributing here. Long time enthusiast and general auto crazed nut, tending to bounce around from BMW to Audi to Mercedes for my daily depending on the mood / opportunity. Founded //SFest back in '02 here in sunny CT but gave up those reins a couplefew years ago.
The //S6 has 93k and Carfux shows some good services done - coils, fuel injectors, radiator, and intake mani all done in '10 @ 35k. Wonder why the rad was done, doesn’t seem like a failure point I’ve heard on these.
Can I ASSume the intake mani is of the “Audi upgraded” variety based upon the date, or no? Wondering if I’ve got to worry about it again now nearing 60k later. ASSume carbon clean was done at that time… and now wondering (figuring?) it needs it again? No CEL or misfires or whatnot.
Will be looking for some VAG-COM suggestions… like how to enable launch control (if it isn’t defaulted to “on”?), and any other secret handshakes / must have’s - any insight or links appreciated! Tried to attach a foto but got an error that the “upload file was full”? D’oh, off to a great start!
Anywho, again I’m looking forward to being part of this resourceful community of fellow enthusinuts!
