RobE Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 7. Road noise. I really miss hearing a mouse fart in a feild as I drive by it on a highway. My new car is way to quite in the inside. *quiet* http://newenglandsubarus.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carter Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 K04 turbos are many times more reliable than the K03 turbos which is what I had on my car. That would be RS4 territory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I'm happy for you, even though your wagon had waaaaaaay more character than the bland auto your are currently in. The Audi's are awesome for creature comforts and interior build quality. Hell, my mother's 1997 A4 3.2 has a nicer interior then my 05 Legacy, I can admit that. It even has good handling, and nice spunky power. It needs a $1000.00 repair every few months, but hey, the leather seats are nice. But there are a billion of them on the road and I'd hate to want to blend in with everyone else. Kinda like the 900+ 3-series I see every day. Do these Audi and Bimmer drivers know something I don't? I guess so.... I prefer the Japanese reliable stuff (Subaru, Honda) as I keep cars for years after the factory warranties expire. I'll have to read up on the customer satisfaction surveys of the newer Audis/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car is audi ceritfied, which means it can't have an extensive repair past. It was shipped up from Florida (never seen a winter) I saw the title Everything but pads, wipers and tires are covered. Even the service is free free oil changes, tire rotations and preventative maintenance. Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to read up on the customer satisfaction surveys of the newer Audis/ I really did a ton of research. I know all about audi/VW problems. My ex (x2) had a Passat. it cost her parents 5k in one year. No warranty would been a deal killer for me. Between the special financing, new design and better reliability I couldn't help but to pull the trigger. I still remember the first time I sat in it..... I was in heaven. Need forum help?

Zed 2.0 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Enjoy it, because 2 years from now you'll get to deal with random crap breaking every couple weeks. And that's coming from a former Audi owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Nissan warranty on my S4 since I bought it at a Nissan dealership. When the turbos blew ALL the oil was pumped straight out the exhaust, thus ruining the CATS, cats are warranteed for like 7 years through the manufacturer. Nissan refused to replace them, and Audi said they would have replaced them only if I had an Audi warranty (Even though Audi doesnt warranty items that fail due to other failures[same as Nissan]). Why would it matter if I had the Audi warranty or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTlegacy06 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 So how long and how many miles have you had the car? Come back in 10k and give us a report card sure I don't have a Turbo but stock 2.5i power is good enough for me (for now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed 2.0 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 warranty^^ Doesn't help when a coil pack dies on the highway or wiper motor freezes up during a snow storm. Audi drivers get really sick of seeing their service managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
