Product Overview
For sale is a complete Audi RS6 / RS7 C8 automatic transmission, code TNQ, manufactured in 2022 and recording just 51 kilometres — like new in every practical and mechanical respect.

About the Audi RS6 / RS7 C8 TNQ Transmission
The TNQ is the 8-speed automatic transmission calibrated specifically for the C8-generation Audi RS6 Avant and RS7 Sportback in their 4.0 TFSI MHEV 600hp specification. It is engineered to handle 800 Nm of torque from the twin-turbo V8 biturbo, manage Quattro AWD power distribution across all four wheels, and integrate with the 48V mild hybrid system’s energy recovery and boost functions — requirements that place it at the highest end of the transmission performance spectrum within the VAG group automatic range.
The transmission operates across multiple drive modes — Comfort, Auto, Dynamic, and RS — delivering near-imperceptible smooth shifts in everyday driving and race-quick shifts under full RS mode. Its torque converter design provides the high-load torque multiplication advantage at launch and low speed that dual-clutch alternatives cannot match under the sustained high-torque demands of the RS application.
Transmission replacement on the RS6 and RS7 C8 at new Audi dealer pricing is a substantial cost. A 51km, 2022 TNQ unit — the most current available specification — provides the full service life of a like-new transmission at a meaningful saving, in exactly the correct specification for the C8 RS application.
