1999 Audi A4 Quattro review from North America
"Serious hunk of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water and hot air from the summer time, and cold air from the winter time, leaks into the car.
The rear drivers window falls down, and I cannot get it to close.
The ABS and check engine light stays on.
Cheap plastic parts for an expensive car.
Seats rattle when going over bumps.
Backseat seat belt buckle easily broke.
Both the heater and A/C are so noisy it feels like they're going to explode.
Whenever I stop and when I accelerate, I can hear water flowing and the vents will sound muffled.
General comments?
Major piece of crap.
