Faults:

Hole in breather hose and breather pipe cracked. Agents wanted to charge R1500 for the parts excluding labour. A local mechanic managed to repair it and charged me R150.

General Comments:

Mechanic said I should sell the car before other problems occur. Apparently my engine is starting to breathe and that's not a good sign for the future.

The car is quite heavy on fuel, even when driven slowly.

The car drives well, and can reach speeds of 180km/h quite quickly.

The leather seats are very comfortable, but it's quite cumbersome when occupants want to get in the back seats.

The A/C works perfectly.

Audi is quality, meaning you will pay to keep it in good nick. If you want to complain about costs, get a Toyota.

Otherwise I enjoy it very much.

General Comments:

Awesome car to drive, very exciting drive.

Gets off the line really quickly and handles well through corners.

Rear can let go a nice bit if pushed too hard, very controlled though for a FWD.

Very solid drive, stable and smooth but drop a gear and you'll be goneeee...

Faults:

The only problem with this car are the rattles. From day 1 I have had rattles from the rear seats and hatch-back door pillars. I have taken it back to the Dealer 3 times for this, but they cannot fix it, they say it's a known fault. I have spoken to various other owners who have the same problem.

General Comments:

I like the responsive power, it has a smooth power curve and feels sporty.

The ride is comfortable and the seats hold you in position.

There is plenty room in the back for passengers even though it is a coupe, I have had a full car on a few occasions while driving over 1000km and everyone has been comfortable.

Faults:

The first time we washed the car, with a running hose, normal pressure, it wouldn't start after wards. The car was towed away by "Audi Assist", but the dealer said he did not find any fault with the car. I suspect that they did find the problem, and that they corrected it, because the problem did not occur again.

General Comments:

The level of ride comfort is fantastic; the seats are comfortable, the ride is feather soft, and there is very little engine and wind noise audible.
