Default I hate AOA roadside assistance.... BMW's was so much better....

My car was disabled 2-days after I drove it home from the dealer on a rainy day, because of a couple bad coil packs.. I wanted it towed to the dealer I bought the car from, (I bought it from there, they should make it right) AOA assistance policy says, they only tow to the nearest dealer, or you pay out of pocket, also if dealer is more than 25 miles away from where you are disabled, you pay for each mile after 25 miles... I argued with them until they finally agreed to tow it to the dealer of my choice..

I don't think I am buying another Audi... BMW roadside assistance was so much more courteous, and they towed it to the dealer of my choice no questions asked...

Default Just bring money for gas and put your foot into it!

With such little faith in your car, it's a wonder you purchased it.

I've got 37K on mine and never think twice about its reliability on long fast club drives.

Doesn't use oil. Doesn't use power steering fluid. Maybe I have the only good S4.....no probably not.

Just enjoy the drive!

Eric.

None. Maintain your car properly and you'll be fine. 1400 isn't really that much.
