Default baby just turn 50k tonight. in her first 50k, she has going through one tranny, two set of turbo....

two power steering pump, front right brake defect, lower front left controller arm, radio, rear bose speaker, instrument cluster, coolant bottle, and some small electronic problems. Most of them was replace under warranty, accept for the tranny. Even know she got quite a few problems, but I decide to keep her. I am very happy with her when she run right. It's time for me to put some money on the side for stg 3 upgrade, anyone feel like making some donation ?

Default mine's almost at 50k, here's my list....

Bose speakers x3, instr. cluster, HVAC controls, windshield, sunroof switch, turbos/cats/O2 sensors, coolant temp sensor, a few other things I'm sure.

Hopefully in my next visit I'll get: driver side rear window regulator makes a loud crack, radio (blinking display is getting worse), rocking driver's seat fixed, PS pump staring to groan (no I dont do donuts), brakes are warped/pad deposits/no pad left, rearview mirror auto dim not functioning, pass. side turbo is much louder than driver's side again. Couple other things I'm sure I'll find for them to check.

I figure Audi has picked up the tab for about 15G in warranty work on my car. Not counting the free service.
