That car has 10 year old tech which in the car world is like a century

I think this generation of Audi interior has aged really well. Besides the lack of CarPlay which you can add aftermarket, it has everything you can want and the layout is both luxurious and easy to understand

Your uploads have really been great since you were open about being burned out a little bit. I really enjoy the content you put out. Interesting vlogs and the S65 is such a cool and unique pick for a car UKpostsr. Keep up the great work 💪🏻

Always an entertaining review. This does make me want to go look at an Audi dealership lot for their innovations.

Currently looking at a 2017 rs7 can’t wait to finalize the purchase on it!

I have a fully loaded 2012 A7 including the amazing B&O sound system and the RS7 is still my dream car. Maybe someday. The adapter cable under the armrest is for directly connecting your phone to the MMI system. Yours has a micro-USB connector (which is ridiculous) while mine came with the old Apple 30 pin connector (equally ridiculous). Thankfully, there was a short adapter cable sold at the time that went from the 30 pin connector to an Apple lightning connector so every iPhone I have had since has been able to directly connect to the MMI system. I still use Bluetooth mostly but that can be painfully slow to connect sometimes. Still, for a car that is now 12 years old (in-service date was November 2011), it has aged incredibly well.

I love this car😍 the sound is amazinggg. Also love the c8 rs7 it looks so freaking cool, and with and downpipes and a tune they are monsters.

For the brake squeak I’d recommend getting some carbon ceramic brake pads from r1 concepts, they have some good brakes for a good price, fixed the squeaking on my car and cut down on brake dust too

you been working out man ? Buff Swede haha love your video's as always ! been here for a longtime

You can buy the facelift RS MMI system what has 5x faster chip and better resolution. The upgrade costs around 800 dollars

Autovlog Great Video if I owned an RS7 I would definitely hate those things as well and I hope some of them can be fixed

Fantastic video Mike!😸

I have an A6 with similar package and I really like the comfort seats with massage function. Have you tried the passenger seat just to rule out that there might be something wrong with the driver seat? For the fuel filler cap you need to replace the unit which is attached to the emergency release. I think it is called throttle control element (4L0 862 153 C) and it solved my problem. There are videos showing how to do that and it took me 15 minutes. I also installed some additional USB-ports but I never use them. B&O lacks a bit of deep bass but otherwise crisp and clear sound. Head up display is a good feature and Night Vision are maybe a bit overrated and works best spotting cyclist in cities.

Every Audi I’ve ever owned, had squeaky brakes! My E-tron has squeaky brakes! 😂

*Amazing car absolutely love it!!!*

that issue with the fuel cap happens to Mercedes too, i have a C43 and had two times a replacement of the electric motor. Same problem as on the RS7, nothing happend after tapping the cap and the rescue unlock is even more unreachable.

It must be due some more upgrades soon,seems like it hasn’t had many

The part you need costs only about £20 and is the central locking actuator not the full door. Get z screw driver or release the latch and remove the central locking actuator. Not the whole door release. The A class has the same problem.

I miss your Audi R8. It was speced really nice and sounded amazing!

IDK if you did already or if its been done, but these cars come with a turbo oil screen that often gets clogged up, and most just remove it completely. Just make sure to use performance oil, no crappy stuff that clumps, and keep up with oil changes. Other than that, wtf! No USB ports? I wanted a D4.5 S8 Plus so badly and I just googled it to see if it also lacks ports and it does, come up Audi !! 😂

I had a 2016 audi a6 interior and mmi is similar to your rs7...the mmi is updated and was pretty quick. The one huge annoying thing was the HVac controls need to be a rocket scientist to turn fans high or low, even when they are not on auto they have a mind of its own fans go max speed even if you turn them down once in the drive gradually goes back to max speed...super annoying.

Mike, the adapter you had in your hand at the start of your review was actually a Mini-B USB adapter.

The description of the massaging seat sent me rolling 😂

@autovlog That adapter plug in your RS7 is a mini usb, or more specifically Mini-A USB. They were used on a lot of older cell phones and PDAs.

Hey Autovlog. If you're wanting USB then you will need to upgrade the MMI system. The USB port only came with the generation of MMI where Android Auto or Apple Car Play can be used. I would look to retrofit it

Mike, you can buy an Audi AMI to USB-female cable, for in your center armrest console. Then you have phone integration with your MMI for playing music etc (no CarPlay) and charging phone option.

For the gas cap that isn’t opening you don’t need to get a new cap but change the motor. My son bought a Golf 7 recently with the same issue. My buddy is VW mechanic and changed the motor within 15”.

Rs7 looks nice, Respect😊

An E63 with the m156 engine would be a nice trade for the rs7

You can code video while driving on that car for sure. 3g+ systems which yours has allows that if coded. Used a Carly on my 2014 S6 to do it too. It’s the 2g, 2g+, and 3g systems where you cannot.

at work we have an , i think 08, audi q5. the thing that annoys me on it, is when you put it in reverse, the camera comes on, it will not go off until you are going 7 mph forward. makes no since to me, i have tested this many times. sitting for a few mins, and every time, it will not go off until you are going 7pmh.

Should’ve gotten an E63 with the 5.5 liter.

Nice SOUNDS!!!

You can put an usb port at that adapts also you can connect the phone with car for phone calls and music using bluetooth , you just has to know how to do it

I am personally a AMG guy. But I love this car u have. the engine the interior the look the sound ... perfect

I had a 13 S6 for nine years didn’t really have any of those problems luckily but the hood latch would do that exact same thing in the winter time and not snap down or act like it was then i would start driving it would pop up super annoying lubricant would help

Some cars just don't make people happy by its performance or problems.

I love my S6 massage seats, trying to figure out if it's worth bumping to an RS7, they seem too similiar.

“Squeky brakes” lol

Mike, I have a w205 with 120k miles that i've been told has piston ring issues. Thoughts on dealing with mercedes? I personally don't feel like a modern Merc should be doing this.

How do you think the RS7 compares to a similar generation CLS63?

14’ RS7, the backup camera takes like 2-3 seconds and drives me insane. Also when you open the hatch and a gallon of water falls into the car.

Does the Carly clear check engine light on dash?

VAG problem. Hold the door inn and lock and undlock till it pops. Can pop out after u push it ones and lock and undlock may times

You have a USB port - it’s just not the most frequent type: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB Likely you can get an adapter from USB Mini-B connector to USB-A. Assuming voltage is correct 🙏🏼

Apparently there was a modern Audi where you had to take the whole engine out for basic repairs I think about that a lot

What would you use an usb port for? Music? You can stream it via Bluetooth. Apple car play, wasn’t introduced until next gen, so you can buy a dongle for 100$ and you’ll have wireless Apple car play and android auto.

Looking bug dude! 💪

I like how you just took over that road😂👍🏽

Dude, that car farts thunderbolts while you drive. Who cares about USB or slow back up camera? It's missing a rocket launcher on the roof and gatling guns on the sides 😂

It’s been 4 years😱😱. It still feels like a few months.

Idk if you can compare but only car I had with massage seats was my 2019 Lincoln mkz and in my opinion was pretty good in that car

Awesome video

I have an Audi and the repairs have been horrific, I will never have another. That being said, the Audi looks SO much better than any AMG (imo.)

I have a check engine light on in my Mercedes. Is that Carly actually good?

Have you tried rebooting the MMI, there's a few videos on UKposts on how to do so 🤔

I hope you’ve changed the turbo oil screens to prevent blown turbos from oil starvation? - very common on pre 2018 models of the 4.0 Audi twin turbo engine. I owned a 2018 Audi RS6 performance. (I live in New Zealand the RS6 wagon was never released in the USA) I sold it as it had too much lag and didn’t actually feel that fast. I replaced it with a 2014 E63s with the twin turbo 5.5 M157 engine. It has much more personality and feels much faster and more exciting. Audi RS products have zero personality out of the box IMO

Lol, I remember Matt Farah once complained about Audi and their lack of USB ports.

Try a GSF next! But you'd struggle with your type of content because it wont break down as much 😂

why the gas cap is on that wood stick ? Looks funny haha

nice Apple Mac startup sound right after your USB rant...no Apple CarPlay is deal breaker now, but even back then, I had to have something for my iPhone!

Awesome video.

I am an owner of a RS7 too. What i hate is the fact, that Audi doesn't continue the contract with Google. I would love to use the Google Maps! What i also don't like is the volume. In the morning i just wanna have low volume music. But "volume 2" is a little too loud and "volume 1" is too silent. I had a RS5 B8 before and it was not like that. I had a B&O system in both cars. The moveable spoiler turns off when you get faster than 130 km/h, which means that it goes down when you go lower than 80 km/h.

Hey, AutoVlog that adapter in the arm rest is the adapter fro your to work with your Mmi.

Amazing how fast these cars drop in value when they are a few years old and off warranty. M5 is same way but a better performance car imo

My 2014 s4 just likes to stay on when I throw it in drive 😂

That audi adapter is one you can change out for a USB one. My 2012 vw polo had this, it came with line 3 different leads you can change out. Terrible design if you ask me. Glad they no longer have them in newer models

'squeky brakes' 😆

It's obvious you are an AMG purist. Dump the Audi and go all in on the 2024 AMG.

The squeaking brakes may also be caused by worn down brake pads.

My older Benz has no USB either. Just have to use a cigarette lighter to USB adapter, but it charges so slow!

Interesting video!!!

Aye! was this filmed off of Heneryton rd?

I have 2016 Audi S6 and I love it !

If your massaging seat feels weak, try sitting in the passenger seat. If the passenger seat has a stronger, better massager, then your driver seat air compressor is worn out and needs replaced. 👍

This car is bananas! 🔥

Why is the theme song to ThanksKilling playing at the beginning of this?

I wouldn’t mind seeing another AMG on the channel perhaps trade ?! 🔥🔥

The fuel door isnt an audi problem. Its an VAG Problem. Also on Seat Leons, golfs and octavias

Cool Honda Crosstour, bro😂

Love my 16’ RS7. I have a DS1, Fi exhaust w, DP’s, carbon fiber intake, the car is a 4 door monster. I have sport seats with no massager. Luckily it does have the USB port, however I have a 2013 Allroad and I have to deal with that stupid module that you showed, it is very annoying and seems to disconnect often if someone calls my phone.

Would love to see a W213 E63S AMG in your channel!!! Perhaps time to trade the RS7 for one!!!

Kontakten du visade upp är en USB Mini-B, det finns adaptrar att köpa.

The squeak. I feel your pain 😀

C I bought Carly,but it requires a subscription, not what was advertised. Shocked you would recommend

Thats called a mini USB, very common in older digital cameras and bluetooth speakers.

Should’ve got an S8. Much much better car than the RS7 in my opinion, especially with build quality.

Those Honda Accord wheels are hiiiideous!!!

Why does it not have rs7 seats? Is it a option in U.S. market

"What the hell is this adapter thing?" and shows an usb cable 😂 I guess that mini usb to audi mmi adapter was meant to play movies from an external DVD player etc. But yes no usb sockets on any of this gen Audis.

Well you got stuck with a Swedish massage without happy ending 😂😂😂😂😂 sorry had to say it ❤❤❤

#1 GAS TANK DOOR

Did you try clearing the code for the fuel door before you broke it to open it.....??? If those are the worst things on a 9 year old car you aren't doing too bad.

Over time the audi's just don't hold up and are very expensive to repair, the brake noise is terrible as they age.

När kommer nästa svensk talande video broder?

Why don't you get a classic AMG like an E55 or C32-55? Would be a nice change from 'modern' cars

The brakes are the same issues with bmw m brakes that are not carbon ceramic

squeaky brakes are at the top of my list... I have a 2017 S7 Prestige..Love everything about the car (straight piped as well lol) its just the annnoying squealing pulling up to every stop sign. seems to do it more the more you drive and the hotter they get. Anyways if you find a solution let me know? Ive been through 3 sets of pads trying to get it to stop with NO luck, ceramic, semi, metallic nothing has worked, and the brake dust on these cars is insane!!!

Lubricant on a brake disc sounds like a smart idea.
