Looking At A8's

In the past 10 years I've owned 10 VAG vehicles, Porsches, VW, and Audi. Currently have three, the A6, Beetle Convertible, and Golf. A good friend has a 2012 D4 4.2 and loves it. Or I should say, we...

I get multiple CEL's a month all attributed to a DPF blockage. Own 4 other diesels as well and all exhibit similar properties when the DPF becomes blocked. A quick 100mph sprint down the highway...

Not a problem here. Great vehicle. Just make sure to run it to get hot so it can regen. If you get a CEL chances are it's due to that (speaking from experience).

Cross-shopped both. Found the Q5 interior to be less than the A6. A6 drove nicer (sedan vs crossover, but still), and was quicker. IMO cars suit me better, but the Q5 is still nice. I find myself...

I have seen them in the EU, too. Where to get them installed here I don't know. It would be my guess to try a euro body shop specializing in Audi/Porsche/BMW etc.

Haven't seen anything like this on too many of any kind of car. Could be related to the environment or just simply a manufacturing defect. IMO spending $8k is a rip, buy used?

While I don't have an A4, I have an A6, Boxster S, and a 2016 Golf 1.8T (found in the A3 from 2015 as well). Aside from the Boxster, the Golf and A6 have been trouble-free. The golf has never had a...

What about using Mobil 1? I've heard the 0w20 is a thing now. Saw Mobil 0w20 at Walmart when I got oil for the Porsche. Seems strange they are going for that, but I am sure there is a reason.

I too came from MB to Audi, albeit to an A6 from a GL (pre-GLS days). If I recall, that GL was taken in for 27 individual repairs over 74k miles from Nov 2008-Sept 2013. One of the worst vehicles I...

MPG's stayed the same.
DEF increased (hard to tell, dealer fills up and might have not done all the way.....either way they don't charge)

Too true. Unfortunately, almost every car on the lot here has a sunroof/pano. I never use mine, even have a piece of neoprene between the glass and cover.

I can't believe that the rotors would be worn already. My Boxster has 100k on its originals and, yes, the lip is quite bad but we wait on these cars for the lip to cut into the sensor. No harm in...

I concur with the cost to maintain. These are quite pricey to keep running, but to us it is worth it. I would rather drive this than a Mitsubishi Mirage.

Shifting on my '16 is smoother than my 2014 A6 TDI. This one does not have the terrible sports suspension or sport package, so perhaps there could be something related to that (though unlikely).
