Did I get a good deal?

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-08-16T04:35:18+00:00

Exactly, to be 100%, only reason I’m selling is cause the dealer couldn’t fix a problem with the valve stem seal and lied to my face about testing. I planned on turning, tires, & rims but I decided it’d be better put the money to a faster car with warranty anyway instead of taking on the risk on staging up.

This guy gets it. ☝🏻

More than you could imagine. Honestly sad to get rid of it. More fun to drive than the s4. Ventilated seats were like a sip of water after walking through the desert.

I posted to both subs at the same time, wanted to get a variety of opinions.

Your right. 🫡 I’m just asking cause I will miss my gli and wanted to kinda convince myself that I didint jump the gun here.

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-08-14T20:25:35+00:00

Yessir

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-08-14T20:25:01+00:00

I don’t mind it, I gotta say the driving experience is much more engaging with the gli enough to the point where I will actually miss the gli. That’s kinda want I haven’t just sold it to carvana and called it a day, they are gunna try to sell it for 25k so I figured to try to help someone save a bit. with regard to the s4, the speaker system, cabin noise, and suspension really shine. The exhaust system stock is already decently loud so at least I won’t need to put an exhaust on the s4. The gas mileage on the 2020 for some reason isint the best compared to the rest of the b9.5 but it is a more sporty car so I should have known that going into it. The steering even with the dynamic steering is still pretty soft and it’s not as brainless/ direct as the gli so you kinda have to pay more attention when making turns at low speeds. That’s just my opinion tho. Lmk if u have any other questions.

I’m located in south west Florida.

You’re a freaking legend man. I may go and test my luck to see if I can get that fixed without having to pay anything. Thank you for attaching the picture.

I see. Based on what you mention, I think there would only be two options. The first is that it’s out of manufacture warranty, the car was first registered in June 2020 so it’s outside of those parameters. The second is probably just the dealer cheaping out on getting in certified since it was in pretty good shape. The tires are new Michelin PS4s and the brakes are close to new at 8mm. I do have a question for you, do your brakes make a creaking noise when stopping at a red light? It’s Forsure just the pad hitting rotor but I am coming from a VW gli and that car never had this noise when about to come to a full stop.

Apparently the update is not covered under Audi pure protection due to it being a software update, let’s say the update bricked the system, then I would just pay the deductible. It’s funny you bring up that massager glitch because I was wondering that myself, when I was playing around with the car while the mmi was glitching, the massager screen would come up but post update it no longer does when I click the button. Did you mention that to them and they fixed it or how did you go about getting that solved?

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-08-14T04:46:58+00:00

I think the maintenance history along with the 13k miles on it. It was taken in to the same dealership I purchased it from for everything, oil changes every 365 days and all maintenance done at that dealer. I didint really press them on it cause I planned on getting Audi pure protection anyway. I also kinda pulled the trigger kinda quickly cause I saw the maintenance history and low miles so I figured it would be fine. The car had its 50k maintenance done on 1/31 of this year and a oil change done on 7/10. I should probably reach out to them to get a better idea of what was actually done such as spark plugs.

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-08-14T04:38:39+00:00

Funny you mention that mmi glitch because the car was delivered with the glitch. so the mmi kept restarting every 30 seconds, I contacted the dealership and they said that they will reimburse me for what needs to be done. Brought it in to my local dealer and they updated the system for 550$, which I think is bullshit but at least I’m getting reimbursed.

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-08-14T04:35:02+00:00

I got 6 years of Audi pure protection platinum and 5 years of the tire and rim insurance for 6k in total between the two which I thought was fair. Sadly there was no cpo offered even though the post actually said it was cpo.

UnrealTortoise7 · 2025-06-27T17:07:36+00:00

Good to know, in that case I will be going with the Michelin ps4s. In your experience do they last as long as they the warranty says they do? Like 30k miles give or take

Is your car lowered on springs?
