FAQQuestions about the RS6 manual

Which RS6 years does this manual cover?

Is this the OEM Audi RS6 manual or an aftermarket guide?

The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Audi published for the RS6, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.

1 recalls are on federal record across the 2003–2010 RS6, listed by year below. The manual carries the manufacturer's diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems involved; the recall repairs themselves are performed free by Audi dealers.

Why do some RS6 years cost more?

Every RS6 year is $40.99.
