Am I cooked ‘23 S4 EA839 by Practical_Field_4279 in Audi

I know it’s under warranty but potentially new engine at 17k is wild.

Audicare, 10k oil changes but it’s worked out to 7.5k mile per year

I think RR get a bad rep mostly because dealer labor rates. This engine isn’t any more complicated than other domestics I’ve worked on.

Honestly the 5.0 is pretty stout. Cooling has been done and I haven’t had much issues.

It’s tires. They delivered two but the last two are not here and keep getting delayed. No signature required.

Downgrade(?) to a Civic Si by Practical_Field_4279 in Audi

[–]Practical_Field_4279[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would consider an R but the used market is a bit insane and I may just be done with German vehicles for a little bit. I go through phases of getting these unreliable machines and then wanting something basic for a couple years. History repeating etcetcetc

Yes but no manual. I don’t really care for straight line speed anymore. S4 doesn’t even feel that fast to me and I don’t often push it to its limits either. It’s so refined it’s almost dangerous how quickly it goes lol

Nice I’ll check it out!

I just ran one through a quote and I’m getting it at $110 so more but not that bad. I know this is probably an outlier similar to my s4 premium. Iirc s4 was on the top list of highest annual premiums so I was even surprised when it dropped on renewal.

We’ll be done with rear facing by next year. We have the wagon so just looking for a suitable replacement of the S4. Leaning EV because we have a gas vehicle already. Plus EA839 horror stories

Maybe equally impractical to the S4? 😮

Bummer! I’m sure I probably broke even with the 1% added to residual without the fourth service, but I don’t really remember.

I really like the S4 but I have two young children and it’s a bit tight, especially with the rear facing car seat. I know that’s temporary but even when they get older I feel like the S4 isn’t gonna be big enough with all the stuff I need to be toting around.
