    Considering V6 CC after looking around for B7 Passat V6

    Have been looking around at B7 V6 Passats for a while - both sedan or wagon - but not finding the options im after (Sports Pack w/Bi-Xenons, RNS510) I'm now considering a CC instead which has them as pretty much standard.

    Ive had a quick look thru here but its def more quiet than the B6/7 Forums.

    Any CC specific issues not common to the B6/7 V6 that I should be aware of?
    DSG noises and V6 timing chain noises would carry across obviously.

    Cheers & thanks in advance,
    Owen

    If you really want a wagon/sedan the RNS510 is very easy to retrofit.
    Xenons however is a bigger task.
    Pretty much anything else pertaining to a B6/B7 applies to CC depending on year/engine combo of course.

      RNS510 wasn't a make or break. Have had it in the touareg and Highline wagon - more often I use google maps on my phone.

      The sedan/wagon had more of a sleeper look to it than the CC, which was part of the appeal.
