Default 2013 allroad mods

So, T minus two months (or so) and counting for delivery of my allroad, and I'm still constantly reading reviews and articles about it, who I don't know, I pulled the trigger, but I'm a bit worried. First, the steering issue seems to be a prevalent discussion point here, yet the sales GM at my dealership claims no knowledge. Second, mods... many of the sites I used to visit for my 2004 allroad and my 2007 Q7 only seem to have parts for the 01-05 allroad, not the 2013; any thoughts or experience? I'd love a catback and a chip, or maybe more....

Thanks and Merry Christmas!

As the new allroad is basically a B8 A4, most B8 A4 Mods will fit on your car.

AWE Makes an excellent cat-back and I'm fairly certain you can get either a APR or GIAC tune no problem for that one as well.

I'm not sure if you're looking for a turbo back, but I bet there's a gutted DP out there.

I probably wouldn't touch a brand new car for a while and just would enjoy the amazing new package that the engineers put together for you. But that's only my opinion.

Since the new Allroad is basically an A4 Avant with raised suspension, look for mods for B8 A4. Also, that forum will provide you with much better troubleshooting and tips when it comes to everything on that car, since the older C5 Allroad is different in just about every part. Just suggesting that you also visit and stay active on that forum, in addition to this one.

GTA has an excellent point.
Hold onto your new AR and enjoy it.
Then when you get bored, start to mod
I'd suggest catback first.

Then do the DP and Chip at the same time.

Plus, it'll give some companies more time to perfect their tunes so you can get something that has been tested extensively than something that's fairly fresh on the market.

Audi will find out what's causing the steering problem.
