Default Sorry, but...

I wasn't being snide, just straightforward. You, on the other hand, asked an insulting question, one that seemed to have an obvious answer, but I helped you anyway. Twice. Only after you got obtuse and sarcastic did I question what your point in persisting was.

You got better than you gave.

Nothing almighty about me... I just curate everyone elses messages.

Default "Nothing almighty about me... I just curate everyone elses messages"

what does that mean?

in any case the original message was unclear and avdh expanded on it (...with minimal sarcasm). No need to curate anything as far as I can tell....

Default exactly! - but plowing in certain conditions combined with the q..

and messing with pressures yields an extraordinarily controllable condition that any bmw is hard pressed to replicate.

I will mention that DRC and the other chassis settings in the rs6 allow it to turn in (with Pzeros) like any bmw I've driven. And handle much better than my 4.2, imho. On the 4.2 I first had sp9000's for 15k miles and so-3's for 7k.

Analogous to say perhaps golf club technology ;-)

Default Don't worry...

As with avdh's message that started this thread, everyone else knows what it means.

Default I your brakes vibrate, you need new rotors. Pretty common with the S6. As for tyres

I believe different than you do, but before I had the Pirelli's I would have agreed with you.
