Hey team,
So I’ve decided my next car is going to be an S5 Convertible. I’ve a 10-12k budget, and looking to get something around 2010 with 60-80k miles, and I’ve a few questions:
Firstly, and buying advice or things to check would be much appreciated.
I understand the gearbox, and the early S-tronic is the cars weak point. When was the first, all important service due? 40 or 50k? And, do Audi still support failed boxes, and if not what is a rebuild cost?
I’m not a fan of the early 19” alloys, however the other day I saw an A5 parked up with sold silver 20” rotors, and they looked brilliant - filling the arches and the side profile without looking cheap. Would these have been RS5 alloys or replicas? What ET gives the best fit?
Are there any exhaust mods with replacing the whole system?
Thanks everyone ; )
