1989 Audi 100 Quattro review from North America
"Very difficult to part with and impossible to replace"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The #4 fuse blows constantly.
Rear wheel bearings need to be replaced.
The heater core is plugged.
The door locks do not work.
The temperature gage is dead.
The cruise control is dead.
General comments?
I've taken this car from Maine to Key West, Florida several times and everywhere in between.
The engine is as strong as the day it came off the assembly line.
With the right snow tires, this car will climb a tree.
