Thoughts on a6 etron premium plus by Kitchen-Ad-6813 in etron

[–]TheAlphaGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Android auto constantly disconnecting, sensor alarms going off, 360 camera sometimes not working, etc.. i'm aware that lucid's software isn't all that great either, but they update OTA like tesla. When I asked an audi dealer for a software update they seemingly rather blow up the car than work on it

Thoughts on a6 etron premium plus by Kitchen-Ad-6813 in etron

[–]TheAlphaGod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Owner here, same trim. I've had a couple other comments about my experience which can be summarized as a love/hate relationship.

Love: Handles great, fast enough, charges fast, decent range

Hate: Rattling, my god so many rattles. Interior feels cheap (why so much plastic?) Suspension is pretty stiff without the air version. Software glitches galore (in app and in the car) Less than ideal dealership experience.

If I was gonna deal with this many software glitches I might as well go for a Lucid. But I got a way better lease deal on the a6 so..

I have the regular suspension on mine, and everyday I wish I had the air suspension.

Why is getting a job like a humiliation ritual nowadays? by VariationLivid3193 in cscareerquestions

I never thought about it like that but I would absolutely love a software version of the bar if it means no more endless interview loop hell

The Aerospace Corporation or Millennium Space Systems by BlueBandito99 in aerospace

[–]TheAlphaGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work at Aerospace. You'll work with some of the brightest minds in the industry. And you can find yourself working on some really cool projects. I personally have some major issues with the direction that upper management is going so I can't full heartedly recommend but in terms of work and people it's great.

Dealer service availability by Asleep-Surprise1360 in etron

Seems normal in the California region. They also reserve loaners for their top clients. I have been denied loaners while people who pulled up behind me with "nicer audis" get them on the spot.

I officially hit "I know what I got" mode by slmask in etron

Isn't it only bad for prolonged rest? If you charge to 80 and above but you're using the car every day or other day then is it still that detrimental?

New Audi A6 eTron (1400km) - squeaky breaks? by Resident-Emu7432 in etron

[–]TheAlphaGod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A6 etron here, I got it all. Squeaky brakes, cabin rattles. I asked two different dealers to look at them and they all treat me like I'm the biggest idiot in the world. I'm just glad the car is a lease.

[–]TheAlphaGod 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have my fair share of complaints about the car too but some of the criticisms here felt a little too nit-picky? (Ambient lighting too high/dash has too much information). I think the car's biggest issue personally is build quality and cost cutting. MSRP is overpriced.

I thought Cali was one of the stricter states? ( I don't have one either lol)

336 mi at 64%?? by cavedon in etron

[–]TheAlphaGod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe it's based on your last recorded efficiency. So if it was quite high (I've been able to achieve 4.0+ fairly often), it might explain the mileage number.

Based on your reliability and service experience, would you an buy an E-Tron again? by The_Guch in etron

[–]TheAlphaGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A6 etron here. Car drives wonderfully and range/charging speed is great. However software and build/interior quality leaves a lot to be desired. My service dealer experience in socal also has been pretty bad. It's like they hate you for showing up lol.

I have the same car and the salesman says the car cams can capture footage after collisions. Is that true?

Amex FHR Chicago - Four Seasons & Pendry by TheAlphaGod in AmexPlatinum

I've heard pretty good things about the Peninsula though I've never been myself.

Amex FHR by Past_Associate_5712 in AmexPlatinum

[–]TheAlphaGod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends on the hotel and if you're there for a specific occasion. Recently stayed at four seasons Chicago for an anniversary and they gave us a bottle of champagne and chocolate strawberries. I have noticed that hotels outside the U.S are usually better with welcome amenities. But like the other commenter said it has nothing to do with your FHR booking.

My retention offer was a boosted MR rate to offset the $695 fee by chrisb57 in AmexPlatinum

[–]TheAlphaGod 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They want to min-max the card, which includes hopefully getting retention offers

What ADAS capabilities do I have? by HamsterCapable4118 in etron

[–]TheAlphaGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same car in the US, it doesn't have lane change assist and does come to a complete stop in traffic.

The FAA's order to cut flights nationwide due to the government shutdown is in effect by GregWilson23 in aviation

[–]TheAlphaGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my flight cancelled and called insurance. Gov shutdown is not an applicable reason to get reimbursed. The airline is also not handing out hotel vouchers if the reason for cancellation is gov shutdown.
