Default Seriously, my most trouble-free car...

I'm coming up on 2 years with my A4 2.8Q and it really has been a trouble-free car. Other than the scheduled maintenance, it's not been in for anything. Not a rattle or a squeak anywhere after 22000 miles. No "check-engine" voodoo. The fit and finish is better than either of the two BMWs I owned prior to it. It's not a perfect car (I wish instrument visibility was better), but it does appear to be nearly perfectly made.

Cheers,
Dave

Default Mine's been every bit as reliable as my Hondas

I posted a message a few weeks ago when I hit 100K, listing all of the maintenance/repair work that's been done on my car. Unfortunately, I can't find the message to include a link. Bottom line - the only thing I've had done that isn't routine maintenance is to replace both outer CV joint boots - one at 70K and one at 80K.

Even though my A4 has been reliable so far, I find myself worrying about it a lot more than I did with my Hondas because of the poor dealer service and the potential for extremely expensive repairs.

Default Thanks to the 2 of you who had something useful to say...

To the dozen or so children who got all giggly at the sight of two little letters, grow up...
