That's not going to be cheap at all, maybe find a box specialist to refurb.
My old by s4 was something stupid.

After a bit of research this gearbox is known as the DL501 S-Tronic

There are a number of specialists who can overhaul/refurb the DSG box, why don’t you reach out to them if your in the UK. Just google them....
I had an issue with my S-Tronic gearbox recently and whilst researching came across this company. No connection whatsoever, but just an example. My issue was resolved by my local Audi dealer.

2 suggestions, firstly make sure the S6 has a solid warranty that covers the drive train and second check the transmision has had oil changes every 38k miles religiously. As others have said there are many transmission specialists around the UK who will fix a faulty S-Tronic box for a lot less than an Audi dealer will charge. This would probably be a good starting point http://www.fedauto.co.uk/
My suggestion. Buy your S6.
If it has 8 gears, then you have a ZF torque converter gearbox. If has only 7, you have an S-Tronic gearbox.

The S6 only comes with the 7 speed S Tronic. The RS6 and S8 have 8 speed torque converters.
I had my last gearbox service done at Audi, it's a ridiculously cheap price (or was last year) my local mechanic said the oil would have cost him more than the price Audi were charging.

I have an S6 for sale on here with an excellent Sytner Select warranty - selling due to not getting used
Thanks mate, but looking for a facelift avant, ideally one of the last run out ones.
