Best description yet.

And for me: 10 months, 7700 miles, no problems.

+1.

I'm one of those very satisfied 10%. Trying not to disappear so quickly this time around though. I found these forums to be so helpful during those "decision times" that I decided it was time to pay it back by offering my insights to the next round of potential buyers.

9 months, 14k miles. No real problems that I can think of.

I echo this sentiment. 1500 mi and two months on my Prestige S4. Fixed the infamous bump stop issue on the rear shock absorbers a few days after delivery and it's been smooth sailing ever since, apart from the top view camera thing.

Love this car for the last 3 months and 3,000 miles, no issues. So much more comfortable than my Bmw 2008 750 and even more comfortable that wife’s 2016 full size Range Rover. Taking full advantage of the technology as well, its just great.

New to Audi, I've had my S5 SB for almost 3 months and >6,000 miles of trips through rain/snow/ice and little sun. Thought I had a window trim piece that popped off (the black triangular piece in the corner of the driver's side window by the mirror). It was white when the other side was black. Saw it at about 3500 miles, finally looked at it closely at about 5,000 miles (raining/snowy/nighttime and I didn't always notice it in the daytime). Finally looked closely at it and saw it was the white vinyl protecting film dealer left on from delivery! Peeled right off and car became perfect again.

Really wordy version of "no issues"...

i too have the backup camera bug changing back from the camera when I select it now that I have have actually tried this.

I also have a bug where when I change songs on my connected iPhone the song name in the tab on the virtual cockpit does not update to he song I am listening too.

those are minor annoyances.. but they are truly the only issues I have seen so far
