You're just asking for trouble, aren't you?

Same for me: 15K and not a single problem--ever!

Default I think most S4's are pretty trouble free ......

In 14 months, mine's only had the headlight washer pump fail, but that appeares to be a common A4/S4 problem. It's just that people who gravitate to boards like this may push (and mod) their cars more than average joe shmoe and as a result may increase the likely hood of problems. Plus, someone who is experiencing problems is much more likely to post their dissatisfaction than a happy owner is likely to post just to say he's trouble free and happy.

Default We'll never really know ......

total U.S. numbers/percentages unless we could actually gain access to AoA's service records. However, my local dealer (whom I've actually come to trust somewhat) claims to have replaced turbos on just one S4 to date and that was because of oil leaking at the seals. They claim to not having any tranny failures so far.
