2. dead battery (battery control module defect)
3. dead battery (broken battery cable after replacing control module)
4. blown reading light in read passenger compartment (twice)
5. sunroof spring replacement (after it landed on me while driving!)
6. thumping tire/wheel noise (still not fixed)
7. audio static when very cold (occasional - not addressed)

I bought it at around 90K, when the gas prices peaked here a couple years ago (it being a V8 and all) and got it for next to nothing. I'm not sure if it's running the original shocks or not but I'm guessing so. The back ones feel like they're starting to go. I need to find routes with less speed bumps for now.
The only real problem I've had was the Check Wallet light came on about a year ago. It turned out to be some little gas vapor return valve thing from what I understand. I'm not exactly sure. A local Audi/VW shop took care of that in a matter of hours and for relatively cheap.
The second problem seems to be some corruption the MMI software. I'm gonna be updating that here soon, as soon as I can find a cheap upgrade to the Sat Nav. I'm still on v4.
Another issue I have is that previous owner had really long finger nails and wore a groove around the volume button, chipped the black off of the E-Brake button and the Glove Box button and a couple of other ones. The glove box button is an easy fix, but I can't really even fathom what all would be involved in replacing the E-Break button or the plastic under the volume ****.
Mechanically though, seems rock solid.. knock on wood ... and all in all, I've only had minor problems I would say.
