Default bye bye allroad

i just went through the lemon law repurchase with my 6 month old allroad. i am very happy to be rid of the car after 6 long months. nothing but problems from day one. for this much money the car shouldn't have as many problems as it does. i will never miss that lag, alignment problem( audi told not to let go of the steering wheel) rotors, electrical problems, etc. the list goes on and on. i hope everyone else who has problems fights back. .

My 4.2 AR has been excellent after a dead cell and a rear self-leveling sensor replacement in the first 1000 miles. Since then I have piled up 6k more miles, the only thing annoying me is the small gas tank for the thirsty 4.2 engine. I might go back what I used to do, a sedan for regular driving a SUV for bad wheather. I still keep the V8 4Runner. The E320 CDI looks...., or the RX400H...

Default Glad you resolved the issue ...

My only complain was the noisy Pirellis .. which I replaced with super quiet Falken512. And the noisy wipers .. which the dealer replaced for free ... the AR is a beast!

I have 95K on my AR with no major problems. Before AA warranty runs out I had them replace a noisy air pump for the suspension, the blower fan for AC/heater and couple of minor things. I have gone through two sets of rotors and burned through four Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's in 20K so I am back to the P6's at half the price. The car still looks brand new, no squeaks or rattles and the New Mexico mtns. have been getting pounded with snow and my AR and I just breeze through it all. I am just coming up on my two year itch thinking about what else is out there that is better or do I soup-up the AR.
