Have you driven the car?
Early VIN and those miles probably mean it's got a new trans. Try and dig up if and when it's been replaced. DRC suspension failure is also common, and again with those miles has either been replaced with coilovers or new DRC system.
Let's see... other than that, check the intercoolers for leaks as this is a common issue.
PPI will be your friend on this one. Have it inspected by a trusted Audi tech. These cars are a bear to work on and much of the maintenance requires the engine to be pulled.
GL!

I didn't have a time to stop by for a test drive.
I don't have a way to find out if trans was changed nor DRC... Would that info be in the Audi database. I know they have everything about my TDI and S8 when I call them. I wounder if I would call Audi with the VIN would they tell me that stuff.
PPI is a must when it comes to that RS6 and Carfax shows signs of miles roll back...

I will take it next week if the car is still there. I found another RS6 with Koni FSD dampers and new trans installed few years ago. Same miles less price.
