man...he is gonna regret...
I drove my gf's 3.0 often..
More I drove it I'm amazed by 3.0's low-end and it's torque.
I have drove 2.8 30v & 12v...also 02 stage 2 1.8T and tons of other A4..
3.0 was BEST engine I ever drove on A4 chassis.(B5 and 8E)
Low end is very excellent!..
I have drove G35..260hp right? BUT G35 actually feels slower than A4 when I drive around town.
3.0 gives very good low and mid range power..
while G35 actually doesnt feel like it has 260hp..
These days..I rather go with 3.0 than ANY stage 2 1.8T(chip+exhast).

one thing, I dont get peoples problem with interior trunk opening..
we dont have that here with euro spec, but with soft touch boot release, why does one even need it?
Infact, I always worry with boot release buttons designed into the dash that some person will go and push it whilst in the car and pop the boot by accident.

It's irritating and funny at the same time.
It p*sses me off to see someone trash talk my ride. However, this guy has simply listed all of the things that he has read about that might go wrong - not the issue or issues that he is experiencing -if any.
In fact, I don't get the sense that he actually owns the car. He says, "...giving me quite a few problems..." and when someone asked, "Can you share with us what kind of problem you are having with your A4?", his responds with a list of, "...these are the most common..." gripes.
I think he's shopping.

I think ya'll are reading the post wrong
The guy who started the thread (rteng) only has a couple problems. Somebody asked him to detail his problems, then a *third* person (A4sucks) wrote in with a list of "common" problems (and complaints) on the A4.
Nobody is claiming that a single A4 has all those problems.
Just my read of the thread.

or, they live in crime zone USA and want that feature turned off and the auto locking turned on
...and god is the auto locking on my Jetta loaner a pain in the ***.
Have to click the damned remore button twice every time I want to open a door on the car...so many times a day if running errands or with children in back.
