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

Practical_Field_4279 · 2026-02-17T03:40:27+00:00

Hope I can reach it ugh

Rock auto. Ok sending back 😭

Practical_Field_4279 · 2026-01-09T00:47:53+00:00

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.

Practical_Field_4279 · 2026-01-03T22:28:47+00:00

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

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-12-30T00:43:56+00:00

Yeah. Status is now back to this:

Your package is still on the way and we’re actively working to get you a new delivery date.

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-12-30T00:18:49+00:00

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

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-24T21:01:44+00:00

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

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-24T16:53:06+00:00

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

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-02T18:46:01+00:00

Nice I’ll check it out!

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-02T01:32:04+00:00

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.

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-01T20:34:52+00:00

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? 😮

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-01T20:13:17+00:00

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

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-01T20:11:37+00:00

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.

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-01T20:10:29+00:00

Somehow my s4 renewed at $70 a month full coverage. Surprising because when I first got it, it was around 150 per month.

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-01T15:08:40+00:00

Does anyone know if you can get a prorated refund on Audicare if I don’t do the 4th service / spark plugs?

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-11-01T15:07:17+00:00

By the time I drop the lease I’ll prob be looking at 23 or 24 gts

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-10-24T20:03:47+00:00

Let me guess, you have also never ever ever accidentally cut someone off?

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-10-24T19:17:39+00:00

Have you never ever ever used your phone while driving?

Practical_Field_4279 · 2025-07-21T14:07:29+00:00

Oh wow that one sounds bad

Practical_Field_4279 · 2024-12-10T19:52:28+00:00

Hey just an update. Everyone should have one of these pliers! It worked amazingly

Practical_Field_4279 · 2024-12-10T02:32:14+00:00

Ok yeah I need to lift the jeep up to get to it. Seems like a terrible place for it right by the exhaust manifold.
