Audi Owners Club Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi Ricardo welcome to the club! :) The 3.0TDI in the A5 is a great engine with loads of torque and will certainly be better on fuel that your RX8 :D Good to keep as a weekend toy I would imagine :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIKO Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 hi , thanks for the welcome , ya the rx8 is a very fun car to drive but doing 18MPG doesnt help the wallet so afterlooking at the xf and the a5 we decided the a5 is the one for us, the xf maybe better on MPG and possibly luxury but like on the performance side buy what i been reading and comparing booth. now just neet to know what faults to look for when looking at the A5 2007 to 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Hi. You could boost your economy and power with a remap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audi Owners Club Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hi. You could boost your economy and power with a remap. I think you can get some quite good gains on the 3.0 TDI unit. Makes it into a proper street sleeper! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 You could also get the A5 in the 4WD Quattro version to make much more use of the power. Does Jaguar do an XF in four wheel drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
