So unlike the BMW world, where every model they make has a dedicated set of enthusiasts out there talking about modding and maintaining their vehicles. I understand the A6 55 is already a capable machine, but other than DadAudi, you'd think there would be some enthusiasm for this vehicle. This forum seems to be about the biggest, and that's pretty sad.
I recently got my car back from having the starter generator issue (or whatever they call it). It sat for 101 days in their shop. In that time I had various rentals, a few Mercedes, Q3, Q5, 2023 A3 and a 2022 A4. I testdrove an RS5 and S5. Even with the issues I still would choose my A6 over any of those.

After enjoying it for 2 months, I threw a CAI into it and just yesterday did the APR stage 1 tune. I HIGHLY recommend getting that tune done. It really makes the car respond how you want it to. It’s comparable in acceleration (Imo, no data to back that up) to the RS5 but so much more luxurious and enjoyable to be in.

I don’t really post much as I’m busy with other things but even after having it in the shop for months, looking at other cars, I’d still choose it over its competition.

Forums in general are dying. Discord has really killed off a lot of forums and i'm sure the automotive forums will follow soon enough. is there an Audi Discord yet?

I prefer them as it allows me a chance to meet and exchange ideas with like minded folks.

I enjoy the forum. But I do wish that there was more traffic.

I used to get excited when there wasn’t anything and I do mean anything posted. But now it seems it just alerts me to the same old postings where someone may have said something new. I’m going to keep plugging away at adding things to mine as I see fit. I’ll still post and if folks are interested, I’ll list details and photos. If not we’ll I’ll still list photos and details ha ha ha.

Mind sharing what the group is called or sharing the link?

There are two. One is global, one is US/Canada only. Forum won't let me include the link but they are called:

Audi A6/S6/RS6 (C8) Owners Club
Audi A6/S6/RS6 owners USA/Canada

Just posting to keep this alive and kicking. So far I’ve touched on every part that I want to minus audio which is coming.
