I am not seeing that on our A5

And my prior car (BMW M5 E60) also did not have the issue and I know that was definitely aluminum. It could be the glue you mentioned was not set properly at the factory?

You mean why it is made of aluminum, right?

Because it is :)
But it is still heavy.

Hood way too flexible

I just put my 2020 A4 for sale only 7300 miles and while I was washing it to prep it, I noticed a shallow indentation along the top, about a foot from the windshield.
Upon running my hand there,...

Thank you but I want to point out the following:

The transmission fluid change is mentioned under 'Additional Maintenance Items' and it says 'Every 40,000 miles' but for spark plugs on same page it says 'Every 40,000 miles or 6 years,
whichever...

Audicare DSG service at 4 years at less than 40K miles

It's unclear by looking at the contract on whether it's covered at 4 years if the car has less than 40K miles and the dealer told me it does but it's not written anywhere on the copy of the contract....

All of our prior A4s and A6s had water leaks. It's something that has plagued the brand from late 90s to at least 2010..Not sure how our two latest (2019 A5, 2020 A4) will do.
Our prior A6 (2006)...

I agree

But I was trying to avoid a dealer visit....I put some dense foam in the gap between the screen and the dash and that seems to have at least stopped it from happening for now so I can wait until the...

Have you tried anything to fix it yet?

I am trying to figure out if it can DIY or if it's a dealer trip.

intermittent slight rattle from MMI screen (2020)

Car has been vault like since I picked it up new but a few days ago when the ambient temps were a little cooler, the MMI screen rattled/creaked over uneven pavement. Putting my hand on it stops the...

It was the 20K service they performed

I wonder if a software update was performed. My A4 B9 does not do this, the A5 did not this either until I drove it off after the service.

They fixed the door rattle that was coming from the lock/unlock/memory button area. They had to pop the door off and fix/replace the retention clip.

When the car was originally delivered, they had lost the 2nd key

So, once they got a new key in, I dropped off the car to have the new key registered with the car. After that, I started getting the popup every time I start the car.

Well Audicare is miles or months depending on which arrives 1st. I think it's your prerogative to wait to bring the car in, they can't force you :)
You should still do the oil change on your own...

Post-Service troubles (maybe?)

Just got the car back for 20K service (2 years really as the car barely has 8k miles).
