Default Do you ever just get sick of your Audi?

I think I'm almost to my breaking point with it...just these little nagging problems with it all the time it seems (ghost sunroof, windows going down by themselves). I still have some engine vibration and hesitation even though I changed my spark plugs with NGK Platinum and new CPs. Any ideas what else it could be? Maybe fuel filter? It's got a new air filter. Sometimes at idle, I'll notice the rpms drop slightly for a few seconds then go back to normal. This would be normal if the A/C was on, but it wasn't...so I don't know anymore.
Thanks for any advice.

I have the same vibrations, too, can never tell if it's tires or engine. I just try to live with it

Default I did get tired of my allroad

I practically had a standing appointment with the dealership every month to fix whatever went wrong in the past 30 days. Thank goodness it was under CPO, but my payment was basically $50 a month higher just because of the copay. The only reason it wasn't a lemon was that it was always something else going wrong, never the same thing.

But then I would put my foot into the 2.7T and all was forgiven.

Default Is it an easy DIY to replace the fuel filter? I heard it should be replaced every....

20K miles....is that true? I'm just trying to think of what else could be causing the slight engine vibration and hesitation on acceleration or a seemingly "boost" in acceleration for no other reason. But then I look at other cars and I can't find one I like...so I'm screwed .

Default Not sure yet... its something I'll be doing soon as 40k is a few thousand miles away for me.

I too am having that sudden drop in rpms at idle. Just started recently.
