So all these problems... what did you do to abuse the car? Audi cars are renowned for their reliability & long life - unless abused.

I agree I had a 1998 Audi A4 from new and had a starting problem with the car ONLY after 1500 miles which was shocking. Overall the car wasn't bad, but mechanically I'm not sure. Got rid of car after 35,000 miles in 2001.

Is this car like the Passat? I have just been reading the comments on those, they sound attrocious reliability-wise.

I have had several Audis, both petrol and diesel, and apart from some minor electrical glitches (windows and locks), they have been solid, reliable and dependable. It is very important to keep the cars maintained at an Audi dealership. If these cars are as unrealiable as you suggest, then I am not sure why the resale values, particularly on TDIs, is so strong - it just doesn't make sense. The car buying public are not that poorly informed.

I have driven Audis for nearly thirty years now. It amazes me to hear weird views about them. I live in a country where roads are like moon craters when they are not like cattle tracks. I have never had a breakdown on account of design or engineering flaws. I use my 24-year old 80 for my daily movements, and the thing has refused to stop. I have just bought a 1.9 TDi 130 SE, and yes, someone above knows what he is talking about. The car is just out of this world!
