Me yes... Plenty, and I'm a bit disappointed about that. Did some of you visit the dealer to have those fixed?

Default I have a wind noise from where my window meets the door behind my shoulder....

I brought it through a touchless car wash and during the high pressure dry off there was water getting pushed inside.


Aside from that, i would say mine is pretty tight... Although with my loud exhaust and tires i can't hear much else. I've pretty much ruined the ability for this car to be quiet.

Default Not with my A5, but I did with my last A4

The dealer adjusted the doors, and it's been fine since. There is a time limit on these sort of adjustments, though (6 months/10000 km I think) so don't wait too long.

Default yes. Had the car in for a day when I first got it to fix the "stereo sound" related rattle.

Sometimes I notice the moonroof and passanger window creak over bumpy roads, but then it goes away a day or so later. I think it has to do with how the moon roof or window seats when closing.

Had the same creaky sound from my sun roof in my other 2 A4's and S4.

Don't you guys realize you should be happy to have a car at all?

Aren't you jealous you didn't order yours when we did? I ordered mine over a year ago.

Default Boys, boys, play nice. 2009s have advantages, like Drive Select...

...one day, "The Waiters" will be able to have some good discussions.

Default Haha, we're playing nice... and yes, your extra toys will be nice.

But, i've certainly enjoyed my 7 months(as of yesterday) of owning this vehicle.
