They told me I didn't have an appointment on 1/6 even though I definitely had an appointment on 1/6. They tried to gaslight me to say that they wouldn't have scheduled an e-tron on a Saturday (like I...

My new to me ‘20 Sportback seems to have classic OEM brake dust. I have always changed to ceramic pads in the past to reduce the dust. Any issues doing that on an EV? Does it mess with the regen or...

Prices have plummeted on these, but I think they may have now hit bottom. I paid about $39k before they gave me an additional $13k on my 2013 S6 trade-in, which was pretty fair as I'd had have to do...

That's just about where I was before my engine block self destructed and caused 0 compression in cylinder 5. Went the most cost effective route I could and it still cost me about $14k.

About a month ago, on my 2013 S6, the driver's side rear suspension would drop to the ground intermittently after being parked for a few hours or more. Now it dropping to the ground on both rear...

Looks like I posted in this thread about a year ago. My engine oil consumption got to about 1 quart every 400 miles, then the engine blew. So if you have high consumption with this model you really...

I thought I'd add my two cents here. I was the second owner of my 2017 Audi Q7 3.0T. In the 18 months I've owned it, the oil consumption got worse and worse, to the point where I was putting in a...

Did AoA step up at all? Because I'm being told it'll be about $23,000 to get a new engine in this thing, which is probably what the car is worth.
