Honestly, I'd sell it - you're too close to end of warranty!

Default I am sure they are all warranty problems like mine was.

It is a pain to get fixed but that is what the warranty is for. It does not sound like you have had any major problems and none that are reoccuring except maybe the bushings. Don't know. The Bushings is a known problem on Audi's in general. Tough call. If you are no longer in love with your car and can afford to get another one or liked something else that catchs your eye I might go that route.

I have a lot of little problems with mine as well, 99.5 w/ 35K. Is this going to continue/is normal?
