Audi RS5: All You Need To Know
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июн 2024
- The Audi RS5 by far and away my favorite two door sleeper that Audi has ever made. The Audi RS5 has been show cased in 2 different generations with a tuner friendly V6 twin turbo or the beautiful 4.2L V8! Both cars have incredible styling and are great choices for someone looking for a fun coupe.
Personally I have always had a thing for the Audi B8.5 generation for the S5 and RS5. Something about the styling of the car just fits the name perfectly. Its aggressive, but not to much in your face and if you hear this V8! Damn it makes every sound a RS car should make. The RS5 is a perfect car for Audi, it sits at the top of the A5 lineup and competes directly with the BMW M2/M3 and the Mercedes-Ben CLK63. If you are looking for a RS car that is sporty but different then your typical M3 (everyone buys theses damn cars) the RS5 is a great car to choose for you! If you want to know Which generation RS5 would be the best choice for you, well join me as we dive into all you need to know about the Audi RS5.

I’d pick the RS5 B8.5 because I’ve owned one since 2018. This is my keeper car and agree 100% with all you said in the review. This for sure is a future ‘CLASSIC’.
Yep it will be a cutie classic for sure! Just need to wait 10 more years and it will be money
im looking to pick one up in the next couple weeks. any advice or things to know before going through with it? maintenance costs? brake problems?
@@JamilioQ check discs, pads and tyres all round because they are expensive. You want a comprehensive service history. Depending on age/mileage look for evidence of rear and front final drive oil service, s-tropic oil change. Has it got DRC? If so pay particular attention to this, you want no weeping or issues as DRC service or replacement parts is not cheap. Is it pre facelift? If so be aware they had mechatrinics issues. Apart from that get a good one and enjoy.
My 2013 Audi RS5 V8 is the best car I ever owned! Nothing like hearing an engine sing above 8000RPM.
I completely agree with you man! It’s a god damn music orchestra! The 4.2L V8 is a beast of a engine! I have a friend who has one that is swapping into a pretty cool car.
@@ThreePedalGarage I have a milltek catback exhaust on it. Tell him that’s the one it sounds like a formula one car
@@ABthatMan_ sick I’ll keep that in mind!
VR6 swap that shit now!
How does the costly maintenance look?
Just got a B8.5 RS5 with 9k miles. So lucky to get it, I will never get rid of it. It should hold value too
Oh yes it will totally hold its value! The B8.5 are a timeless design and will age really well. That 4.2 V8 is a beautiful engine and I think it’s way better then the new 6 cylinder turbo
Even a 2013 is still a ufo ..so responsive and crisp and smooth ..Even the G-forcs off the line stock blows peoples mind ..I just bpught one n love it better then our mazerati sq4 which is fast n more expensive but this car makes you wanna go places ...There value will go up soon ..There getting harder n harder to find especially the RS5 or 4 due to everyone wanting one ..Its so amazing n air tight , you cant hear cars from the outside its like you are locked in n ready to go places ..I was like frozen in time in the racing seats n downloaded playlists not realizing how long i wss in the car ..The steering wheel is amazing ..Sound system crazy ..But most of all performance 👏 Geman engineers are awsome
I agree this is the last Audi with soul... I have a customized 2014 B8.5 with a bunch of upgrades. Myself and my wife love this car and agreed its a keeper for life. We have test drove the new B9 and even though we agreed it was probably a little faster than the B8 it will never replace the emotion and happiness you get from the sound and performance of that high revving V8 engine. It puts a smile on our face every time we take it out!!
That is an excellent way to describe it! The b8.5 has just more emotion and it more driver focused. The b9 is nice but it just lacks some rawness to it.
I guess I'm buying a damn RS5 now 🤦♂️
My eyes have been opened
Hey a beautiful cars an sound amazing!!
I love my 2014 RS5.... I have owned the B8 - A4, S4 Automatic, Dual Clutch & 6 Spd versions and this RS5 just feels so much more refined and fun to drive... and the best part is, it's the best looking RS5 IMO. I love driving it around, engine and exhaust sound is addictive!
Bro so close to buying this car. Was looking at a manual s4 but this one seems sick.
B8.5 all day, I love my car and will never sell it. It's very rare to see a car with such high RPM''s and that natural engine feel and sound, I never turn on the sound system my exhaust is my entertainment.
Picked up my 2015 Daytona gray pearl rs5 2 weeks ago and am head over heels in love. Can’t wait to see how it does in the snow
Ohhh it’s going to be a beast in the show! Congrats on the purchase!!
B9 is just the perfect balance of everything. Great handling, very quick, fantastic interior, SB is insanely practical, and so on. Tremendously underrated car imo
I have been looking at the B9 platform more lately and yes I agree it does look pretty good
Just got the 2013 Audi rs5 yesterday best purchase ever lol
Oh yes I agree man! You won’t regret it!
@@ThreePedalGarage yep also great video
@@ThreePedalGarage also one last dumb question lol what exact gas does it take? Haven’t had to fill up the tank yet 😅
@@zackk7779 whatever premium has you have. Lowest I’d go is 91

Bro the vide was so good! The quality, I was like woah when I noticed you only had 5k viewers, this needs millions! I hope you do well!
Haha thank you bro that means the world to me. I spend many hours editing these to make them entertaining and interesting for the viewers. As a small channel it’s hard to grow. I just need to keep going and pick cars people like. Any recommendations for future cars?
Very nice video!
I love all the RS5 models, 8.5 is my favourite though.
Yo I agree with you! It’s my favorite also!
I had a glacier white 2019 RS5 Sportback fully loaded and with the Carbon package. EVERYONE loved it from the neighbors and to the cops. Some thought it was a new electric vehicle. My friends always wanted a ride and it killed everything on the interstate. No one knows about the RS5, it’s one of those urban legends or least known rare treasures. Bad azz vehicle. I’ve only seen one other RS5 in my city area of a 50 mile radius.
Great video. I was about to pull the trigger on a B8.5, but now I'm considering the next gen up. That black looks stellar, to say the least.
Either way they are both great choices! I don’t think you can go wrong
Man this car is crazy nice!!!
Hell ya back with a killer series! I love the RS5 and its such a beautiful car! It sounds like a beast and it can kick the American V8 ass lol
Ohhh it can boogie for sure!!
Great video. Very compressive. Provided fantastic info. 💪🍻
I just acquired a low mileage (per your chart) 2014 B8.5 and have fallen in love with it….. very intoxicating machine.
@@zacharylark6739 congrats on your purchase! It’s an amazing car and you will really enjoy it!
Awesome car love my RS5 B8.5, it’s even better with the JHM Stage 2 tune, just a note the 4.2 motor is not a development of the B7 RS4, it is a different motor based on the 5.2L V10 with 2 cylinders removed
Great vid
damn right! awesome car love it so much i just bought one!!
That’s awesome man! Ya they are beautiful cars and I can’t wait to snag one for myself!
I was lucky enough to stumble upon a B 8.5 limited sports edition. Audi only shipped 75 to the US. It’s only interior upgrades (red leather accents) but it looks killer. Great vid. Thanks!
That sounds amazing! Great deal also!
Own cabriole B8 Rs5
Love it looks how rev it
Has everything I need
In tokyo only few of them
Can’t replace this RS5
Great review video👍🏽🔥
Thank you!! I have a few other videos on Audis and VWs
@@ThreePedalGarage subscribed!! i own a b8.5 a5 2013 year, so anything audi related im tuned in👍🏽
@@rah40boy sweet man! Ya I love Audis for my next car looking at a B7 RS4
I love my 2014 RS5, best Audi I have ever owned.
the timing chain in the RS4 wasnt prone to failure.. that was the b7 s4, it had cheap plastic guides whereas the RS4 had metal guides which didnt fail. Since the b7 s4 they have fixed the plastic guide issue. RS5 is pretty much bulletproof!
Great to know thanks for the heads up!
I agree with you in everything, I love coupes for their 2 door style and always say why do they stretch them into 4 doors style, those I too, don't see fit. I love the v8 b8.5❤
I have one, just bought it a week ago. 2015 in Daytona Grey Pearl with Tech pack, 20 inch wheels, and sport exhaust. How did you get the headlights to do that? I haven't had any time to play with it yet.
I'd take the BS8 with the interior of the B8.5. The exterior of the B8.5 looks like a Ford Fusion.
All those nice things, nice things you said yeah I agree. I can't remember any of them that you said but I agreed at the time.
Lol thank you
When you buy the RS5 there are packages that allow you to get rid of the limiter, or just get it tuned later.
I do brutha!! 😎😎😎
I really enjoy the rs5, the mexico blue b9 in the video is mine but i always go back to wanting an b8.5 and so i got that as a second, the new platform is a lot quicker the the b8 is more of have the drama and fun factor.
Yep I couldn’t agree more with you. The new platform is great for performance but for the dram and fun factor it doesn’t beat the b8 platform
Nice 8.5 V8 , I think Hong Kong buy 2015 8.5 , but no 2 nd stock , pls help 🙏🏻
I had a rs4 2007 loved it looking for a rs5 2015 the v8 alone is worth it
I live the RS4. That’s the car I want to get next! But yes I agree the RS5 is so worth it just based on the engine! It sounds so good
Don't u miss your rs4 ? esp the manual in it ? will never sell my b7 rs4 so unreal rare and manual auto boring
I’m also looking for the 2015 RS5 in Phantom Black with alcantara seats! I don’t know when & how but I’ve been saving specifically for it. I hope you get it one day bro🙏✨!!!
I love the B8 for its aggressive facelift, neither original nore the B9 :) thats why i owe an S-Line with RS5 bumper 😁
Dream car
Yep I agree 100%! It’s so beautiful!
Can someone tell me at 3:27 what is that circular grey thing on the passenger side inside the lower grill? Just under the tow hook compartment.
Everything you stated about performance mod hp gains on the B8.5 RS5 is incorrect. A stage 1 ecu tune from JHM gives 24whp on a dyno. The stage 2 ecu/tcu tune bumps it up to 45 to 50whp. Tho you have to drop the engine, headers easily adds 20whp. Unsure how much my Capristo exhaust adds over stock. I've owned this car for 5yrs. Check out Red Mist Racing and he literally shows you guys dyno results post tune. After tune the car runs high 11s in the qtr and high 3s in 0 to 60mph. I dont feel dropping tons of money on a supercharger is worth it unless your chasing #s. You def have to be on top of carbon cleaning if you own this car as it will rob you of hp. The Eventuri intake actually loses 3whp compared to stock air box/K&N filter. The B9 has an amazing interior but that V6 sounds so bad compared to the V8.
V8 4.2 is great. It's the same Gallardo/R8 engine cast 2 pistons back!🇨🇦😊
Any videos on what the settings and different modes do and how to actually use the manual clutch and all that kind of thing ?
Bling like that currently I can look into stuff like that. I am build a car now where I do talk about mods and how to install them.
@@ThreePedalGarage ok got you
V8 FTW. B9 looks cool but B8/8.5 is plainly beautiful. Nothing compares to NA V8 (..aside from NA V10 ofc ;))
Hahaha yep I completely agree with you!
The rs5 is beautiful but the rs7 is just perfection
Ohhh I agree! They are both amazing cars! The RS7 is nice since it has more room for more people
I just have to ask this question, because it HAS been a huge issue ( and sometimes unknown for people new to AUDI ) on early 4.2 V8 engines. Does this era of AUDI still have the Timing Chain / Plastic Chain guide issue where they slowly fall apart and that "death rattle" occurs, and then you're out $6000 in parts & labor to remove the engine? I want to buy an RS5, but not if that is still an issue.
So from what I have heard the b7 RS4 is where the timing chain issues are most common. The RS5 4.2 v8 has updated guides which has dramatically helped with reliability. It’s still possible to have the issue but I have heard they hold together way better
I have 2015 RS5, but this is far more beautiful car I had. Even when I want to drive I will rather take my RS then my Lambo Gallardo. It is just totally different super coupe.
Couldn’t agree more! It’s really a special car! Audi nailed it with the b8.5 body style and that engine is amazing
awsome bro rented few lambos but love my b7 rs4 more for real
I really want one but I am confused is the B8.5 worth the premium over the B8? Note that my budget is for the most part a bit low for a B8.5. Does the B8.5 have any significant mechanical upgrades that makes it just that much better? Also what is the best possible Exahust for it? I want it to sound like an F1 car
In the US we only got the B8.5 RS5. So your only have one option there. If you comparing that to the B8 s5 the major difference is styling and the headlights/taillights are different. The b8.5 V8 in the RS5 has more upgrades than the B8 S5 but they are based on the same engine. The good part about the B8 S5 you can get a manual while you cannot get a manual in the B8.5 RS5. Not sure what the best exhaust would be but I’d look for an exhaust that has a cross over pipe in it. They always help V8 sound pretty good!
@@ThreePedalGarage thanks for that mate, i personally am not looking for a manual, all i want with the RS5 is the V8 and now from what I've seen an X pipe seems to be go to, also the 2012 B8 has Bluetooth audio right? So I can atleast listen to some music?
The B9 RS5 being relatively ugly , & minus a screaming V8. Cemented the b8.5 RS5 place in history as a truly stunning classic performer!
Yep I completely agree man! I love the V8 in the B8.5 RS5
I have the B 8.5 and a 2021 B 9.5 which was tuned by APR with an intercooler, red star downpipe and AWE exhaust. All said and done, when I walked out of the dealership with my stock 9.5, it was well over $100k USD with all the options prestige model. Well worth it
I’m looking to get a 2014-2015, RS5 or a 2016 S4. I’m torn tho… 😂🤙🏻 fire vid 🔥
Great choices whichever you choose! The 4.2 V8 is amazing sounding and the 3.0 supercharged is great for modifying!
@@ThreePedalGarage Yeah! i have heard such great things about both. i’m excited tho! I love my A4 B8.5 that i have but it’s something about that loud engine/supercharger whine that’s addictive
@@kenchap_ it’s amazing man. I was looking at a b8.5 s4 for a daily. I have a friend that has a stage 3 ARP tuned s4. It’s crazy fast and sounds amazing!
@@ThreePedalGarage Damn! that’s so fire. i’m just doing research for right now, i’m planning to get it in a year or so! lol. my plan for it is stage 1 then lowering it 🔥🔥
I'd pick the B8.5 RS5...bc reasons
Loved my RS5, unfortunately it spent too much of its life in the shop. Also RIP direct port injection
I was just going to get an S5, buuuutt,, for V8? 😎I’m considering a RS5 now 😅
You can get in older S5. The early B8 s5 had a V8 also. But the RS5 engine is a better built engine
Wth. Peak power at exactly the redline limit. There is no drop in power curve throughout the rev range?
Ya a little weird but that is what Audi says. No actual dyno numbers used for the figures
I don't know if it's insane or genius that they didn't offer a manual in the the B8.5. That's one leg up the B8 has. The only thing that's been holding me back from buying a 2015 is the lack of manual...literally the only thing. If it had that then it would be damn near the perfect car. I'm also looking at this as an investment. Stick shifts and v8's are going to demand a premium in the coming years.
Ive always wanted an Audi RS car. The S line sucks because now its a trim package only.
Ya s line is just a a5 with some nice carbon stuff
How about the original Audi Quattro? A legendary race car.
Ohhh ya that is a legendary race car for sure
B8.5 has soul. Thats why i love my B8.5 and got one. the new one looks absolutely generic in my opinion. Design wise audi really needs to change up things for good.
The designer of the RS5 also designed the first R8. As we all know, both are absolute timeless designs!
@Andrew Wenman Where did you get that really nice poster on the right side in the background?
I got it off of Etsy if you type in Audi RS poster it should be one of the first ones. It’s a super cool poster.
@@ThreePedalGarage Thank You! :)
I own a B8.5 2015 Rs5 in daytona grey 😏
B9 all day
I do like the 2 door version and the V6 is a great engine
b8.5 rs5 motor is more closely related to the R8 v10 with the 2 cylinders chopped off
Yep yep for sure!
Sportsback (4 door) looks so much better though.
In my country, used 2011-12 RS5s with 25000 km on it sell for about 30-32K $!!!
Well damn that’s sold pricing!
Miss my b8 🙃
They are beautiful cars you should get another one!
The B8.5 RS5 is my federal car, but I’m afraid even if I manage to find one I can afford, it’ll bankrupt me if it needs major repairs 🥴
you poor guys, you've got no ceramic brakes, drc, or sport seats, imo those three are in the rs5 core features
Still learning how to use the paddle shifters and features though 😅
It will take a little but will be worth it once you do! It’s a great car
2 Door car's are safer and stronger if your in an accident and are usually faster than a 4 door car cause they are normally classed as a coupé
Yep all good points
You forgot the fenders are wider. Audi still uses a v6 diesel.
I thought I mentioned it but I must have left it out. Thanks for the catch 👍🏻
YESSIRRR 2 doors FCK FRIENDS I pick and chose who gets to ride with me lmao!!!
🤣🤣
I have a b8 rs5 in w/titanium pkg. Totalled a b8 s5 and was looking for another s5. But all newer ones went to v6. It just wasn't the same. So to stay w/the 4.2 I had to step up to the RS5. Best decision I ever made. Love love love that car. Looks mean, sounds mean, can be mean if provoked. Only down side is alot of dick drivers will intentionally f wit you
Ya I can see that happening. Glad you are enjoying the car.
Centrifugal blown 6.0 LS swap is waay uner 10k
Could be fun
I would personally take the clk black and the e92(especially a gts) over the rs5
Understandable it’s a good car. I just feel the E92 are just so over played everyone has them.
Ive been looking at audis but everyone tells me to stay away from them as they are problematic and to much to maintain. I never really hear people making videos about how unreliable they are, the problems each version of the A5 , S5 and rs5 have. Everyone tells me to stick with a Japanese car like honda or toyota butbim tired of those. I test drove the A5 paddle shift, a A5 turbo stick shift and an s5. But afteranother video i saw looks like its making me not get an audi
So yes European cars will be more expensive to maintain then a Japanese car. They are built to be maintained and as long as you keep up with the maintenance you will be fine with the car. It will cost more in the end but I do think European cars are nicer looking and the quality is better.
Not the same car the rs5 is the r8 v10 minus 2 cylinders, not sure how you didn’t know that
The first generation Audi R8 comes with a V8 as the base option. Same V8 that was used in the RS5 but had an upgraded cam. The v10 was the upgraded option. Look it up you will see there are V8 R8s
In first minute of this video you know you need to click away 😂💀
I disagree with them holding their value well. A 2013 RS5 can be had for 37k with 70 thousand miles. That's over 20k cheaper than they were in 2018. Having said that, they're not going to get any cheaper.
The thing is the rs5 is twice the price of a s5 and not twice as good
Ya that’s a good point. The s5 is a pretty great car and with some mods easily can make the same power
i agree with you about RS5 that is the best audi looking car and my favorite audi also but wtf dude this music , i can't hear your words , you have a good taste of cars but music really bad :D
Trying to get it to adjust right wasn’t working easy. Trying to find background music that isn’t copyrighted isn’t easy most of it is way worse then this. I just need to work with what I can get.
@@ThreePedalGarage try to use for background style future garage it's amazing for rs5
lol i can get to 155 pretty quick, faster the car, faster the speed you get there, Actually i think you got the numbers mixed up, All the v8 rs5 are about 20k cheaper than the newer ones in the US
Like the new RS5 is about 20k cheaper then the old used RS5? Or the MSRP of the v8 RS5 is about 20k cheaper then the new MSRP of the New RS5? I definitely could have gotten it mixed up. Prices have gone up like crazy since I made this video.
@@ThreePedalGarage That may have true, i can find most v8 RS5 under 35k anything new body style RS5 is 45k and up
@@steven-fury ya prices probably changed since making the video
And all that "beautiful style" was penned by an Italian, of course lol ( Walter Da'Silva, ex-Alfa Romeo )
Yep yep! He did a great job with the car!
Nice video - but i m s a tho'??? It's im-suh bruh c'mon
labert nur Scheisse.....Der Rs4 b7 hat absolut keine Probleme mit den Steuerketten das sind sehr Robuste Motoren kenne Leute mit 350,000 km bis über 400,000km mit dem ersten Motor!!! Meiner hat auch schon 240,000Km runter ohne jegliche Reparatur. Der S4 b7 hatte Probleme mit der Kette ja.
you are 10000000% correct !! good boy my b7 rs4 does not have timing chain issues like the s4
B9 rs5 is faster, more reliable, and looks better… they obviously changed things for the better.
You're wrong
If you get the driver's package with the upgraded brakes and tires
They removed that one hundred and fifty five speed limit
It goes 2 one hundred and seventy four
Thank you for the correction
