Hey all, long time lurker and avid Audi owner (previous models, B5, B7, S4, RS4, multiple C5 RS6s etc etc), but having spent a while being responsible, swanning everyone around in a family wagon from Bavaria, I'm getting back into the fold!
Kids grown up and the mother doing the majority of the ferrying, I'm looking for some wholesome coupe fun.
I'm set on an Rs5. Just need a V8 back in my life
I'm looking at post-facelift 2012/13 onwards with a budget of around £30k'ish.
Just wanted to get some advice as I know little about the A5s, on what to look out for in terms of
1. Service must haves, faults etc.
2. What are the common problems (still DRC and carbon?)
3. Issues to be aware of
4. Must have spec...
5. Signs of mis-use
....you get my drift. Forearmed is forewarned and whilst i've owned many and had some interesting debates with Audi warranty in some cases, so have a broad understanding of what to look out for, your specific knowledge of this model will be very helpful for me.
Thanks in advance.
