Mine's an '11 with a manual, 35k miles and absolutely pristine. I feel I'd be lucky to get $12k. Unfortunately these cars aren't worth dirt since the oil consumption and timing chain tensioner and turbo issues.

At what mileage did you first start noticing Oil consumption?

Yeah I know, but all of that's fixed and it's in like new shape. It's worth a try.

Mine started just after a few years after I bought it and it just got worse and worse. All set now and zero issues. What about youy?

[B G 8er]

That's why I ask. Don't want to jinx it but so far, touch wood, no oil consumption. As previously posted on the forums, I do run Motul Xcess synthetic and change with factory filter every 5k or 12 months, whichever comes first.

I also never rev the motor above 3k for the first .5 mile or just make sure she's warmed up. Build date is 04/11. that might make a difference as well? Depending on how long I keep the car, I imagine I'm in it for the tensionor and possibly the chains by around 50k.

You should get top dollar the way you have cared for it and as you mentioned, the consumption has been fixed.

2018 Audi S6 Prestige and full loaded. Lol

I found one this last weekend that was perfect on Saturday and I was going to call this Monday. I called and it freaking sold that Saturday. Go figure and my search continues. Someone traded it in and it had 1500 miles. They wanted 64k for it. I'm still mad about it.

[The Infiltrator]

Well, after all of these years I finally did it. I got my 2018 S6.

The final was $63,414 from the $83,965 before taxes, delivery and permaplate 7 year coverage. I also got an 84 month loan for 3.99% APR even though I wanted it to be 72 months, the 72 was higher for some reason. So now I wait for this bad ass ride to show up from Cali.

Congrats! Are you saying you got the dealership to drop the price $20k?

That's right, they're doing incentive deals to get rid of the 2018's until they're gone. So I got a brand new one for the price of a used loaded out.

It's brand new. I meant that I got this brand new one loaded out for the price of a used one loaded out for the same.

That S6 is looking sharp! Congrats! While I love the B8 platform, the C7 is quite the upgrade, especially with that lovely 4.0T engine, enjoy!

[The Infiltrator]

One last adjustment to the inlet pipe before I say good bye to the car tomorrow. It's been fun and I'll miss the car but it's time to let it go.

[The Infiltrator]

Picked up the new ride. Then threw on some ceramic pads, 17.5mm spacers and lowered 15mm when I got home. 15% tint goes on Monday.

Give it another 9 years. Seems to be my going rate on these things.

S4 rear calipers ordered, thanks eBay. $585 for rear calipers and carriers is a damn good deal I'd say.

If anyone wants to buy the rear carriers, PM me. (I already have a pair)

Back from the dead, yes I know.

I've read back and forth between pages 9-10, and I assume you installed the new S4 rear calipers and everything went okay?
I was super close to just installing the rear S5 carriers and using my stock calipers, but then I stumbled onto this thread.

Yeah you'll need the actual S4/5 rear caliper and not only the carriers. As you can see I found out the hard way the caliper is wider on the S models to account for the vented rotor that will be replacing the thinner solid A model rotor.

Yup already squared out. S5 rear calipers/rotors were a huuuge improvement.

Yeah it went well with the four piston fronts. If you haven't done that yet you should. It's a big difference and you'll realize how bad the stocks are.

I did the front Macan setup about a month before I did the rears. The two made my braking feel like a brand new car.

Oh okay. I saw that after I posted the last reply but wasn't sure what that setup was.

Same as the 3.0T Q5. 4 piston Brembo calipers for 345mm rotors.

Got ya. Good choice!

Yeah, they're half the cost for the same caliper. Lol. The only difference is the Macan caliper is coated dark gray with the "Porsche" logo.
