2014/15 S6 - anything to be aware of?

[Flowrider99]

Hi all. I am thinking of selling my S5 and getting an S6 (2014 or 2015). I haven't decided on the saloon or the avant yet but are there any possible issues I should look out for?

Thanks

I'd try and go for the A6 face lift (C7.5). Good choice Sir.

work out how much it will cost extra in fuel.
And definately check if the oil screen have been replaced and and what mileage. Were the turbos also replaced if not then expect them to go bang in your lifetime as its a well known issue on the S6's

Fuel isn't an issue. What is an oil screen? The car mileage I'm looking for would be around 40k miles surely the turbo's wont have been replaced already! I only do about 5k miles a year.

Theres plenty of info about it on AZ & rs246 forums. more so in the US as the S6 is a lot more common there. Number of cars have had early failure and the audi fix is not a great one as it appears to be temporary. Google it
