Audi S6 5.2 V10 - Things to look out for?

[dele]

Hey all,

Looking at a '58 plate S6 tomorrow and was just wondering if anyone here had one or could give me some advice on if there's anything I need to keep my open for?

Google doesn't seem to tell me of any horror stories so I guess its just the usual service stamps and accident damage

Hi Barry,

Thanks for the quick reply, a shame to hear they seem to be affected by the carbon build up issue

I'll let you know how it goes

Timing chain and tensioners. If it needs doing it's a huge job.

Its 43k miles so I dont think I have to worry about that for a while

Hopefully its everything I want, fuel isnt much of a big deal as it wont do more than 6k a year thanks to train commuting, im just looking for some top quality V10 barging

Hi all,

Thanks for all the help, it had the correct tyres, all the services etc.

Went for it, pick it up next weekend
