Hey up,

Can anyone recommend a knowledgable Audi specialist around the Gloucestershire/South Midlands area?

I have a C6 4.2 FSI on 130k which doesn't feel like it's quite putting out all of its supposed 350 horses. I also have an oil leak at the front of the engine. So I'd like to get the opinion of someone who knows about these engines on the leak and whether a de-carbonification might be in order. Once I have a healthy car I wouldn't mind trying to unlock a bit more noise from the exhaust, too.

All thoughts appreciated!

You will struggle to find better than Ricky at RE Performance in Swindon - http://reperformance.co.uk/ He used to work for Audi UK so knows his way around them.

Yes. Ricky services R8’s owned by me and Trev - you won’t find better.

As Reece has already said, I take my R8 to him. First class workmanship.

How about in the real south-west? Swindon is 150 miles N-E of here.

Had a great call with Ricky today (finally) and he's agreed to take a look at the A6 in a couple of weeks' time. Seems like a very good chap.

He was extremely pleased that a couple of PHers had recommended him, so make sure you ask for discounts or at least a pat on the back next time you're in hehe

I'll leave the car with him a few days, so I asked if he had a courtesy car. He said - "erm, not really, for the kind of cars we normally get here a courtesy car wouldn't really cut it, I've got a 675LT in the back of the workshop...!" rotate
