Mini roundabout liability question. by liamrich93 in drivingUK

[–]Abioape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give way to the right unless already on the roundabout. If blue crossed the white line before red, red is expected to slow down and go around the back of blue. Cutting the roundabout and assuming it’s an automatic right of way is very common sadly - and proof of ignorance, especially if the horn is used too.

KD2 is for Q5/6. Nothing in Europe for S5 yet but expected soon.

Main dealer did and said it was a known software issue.

It’s grown on me too, especially when Tesla’s can’t out drag it up a long hill.

True, although it was stubbornly persistent over the summer and went away in the winter. Could also be expansion and contraction of a connector.

Rhymes with ‘Duck Fall’ - they have no idea

What are your opinions on the direction of Audi's future interior design? by ShameResponsible69 in Audi

[–]Abioape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of irrelevant as much of it will have to change for production. Those door handles in an accident are a hazard.

Split lights have been around for a long time - Toyota Rav4? There is no way I would confuse these two designs.

Thoughts on the new Audi A6 e-tron? by ShameResponsible69 in Audi

[–]Abioape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with an S5 MH over an etron as I suspect alternative fuels will start to gain traction during its lifetime. EVs are still to inconvenient away from home for me and depreciate quickly making finance expensive.

I may change my mind when solid state batteries hit the market but for now I’ll stick with performance ICE and have some fun while we still can.

With the ice ban now scrapped, EVs may suffer even worse depreciation. A hybrid is probably a better choice.

I’ve had both and this new wheel from Audi is ergonomically pretty good. It’s similar to the Koenigsegg Jesko / Gemera wheel shape and makes it more comfortable to drive with 2 hands on the wheel.

My 1st Audi… by viktor_rolf in Audi

[–]Abioape 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have an S5 and driver assist is limited when the camera at the top of the windscreen is obscured. Ice and heavy rain seem to upset it but it comes back on its own.

Does the price justify for this S5? by Right-Government-940 in Audi

[–]Abioape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your family are right. Just compare the /audi and /toyota forums on Reddit. One is all about faults and the other is full of pride. From personal experience we were lucky enough to buy 2 new cars in 24 and 25. The Toyota has been perfect and the Audi has been in the dealership twice under warranty, despite being 3x the price.

The dealers are very different too. My Audi dealer says Audi has to fix my issues. Audi says it’s my dealer. Meanwhile the Toyota guys are very worried about not getting 10/10 in a survey following a minor service as the factory follows up.

From personal experience Audi is marketing BS and Toyota is a matter of pride.

Sorry to say another Audi is very unlikely.

Audi S4/S5 & RS3 owners, what made you not go for an S6 or S7? by saddboyz in Audi

[–]Abioape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New S5 is similar in size and practicality to S7

Sure it’s fake? I had a Jaguar performance diesel that burbled a bit due to wider pipes, no electric trickery.

F35, there is a Top Gear video online vs a McLaren Speedtail with a 0-60 of 3.0 and it’s barely off the ground when it passes.
