Ahhhh...how I love my TSX

I was driving home from work tonight, when off in the distance I noticed a huge cloud of black, oily smoke. I'm thinking to myself, "What hunk of junk is responsible for that cloud?" It turns out the car was coming toward me. As the cloud of smoke approached, I laughed when I saw what was causing it...an '03 A4! Gotta love that Audi quality. I am soooo glad I have my TSX. I've owned several Honda products and never had a moments trouble with any of them. I've also owned VW/Audi products and have had issues with all of them.

I love Audis and their cars, but their reliability steered me away from it.

Ditto. I looked at the A4 and liked it, but was too afraid of the reliability to take a chance. Sooo happy with my TSX.

you guys are exaggerating. i used to own an a4 and it never gave me problems. if you dont treat it right, it wont last, but if you treat it right, it will last.

I'd buy mercedes and BMW, but I wouldn't buy anything VWAG. Love their design, but their longevity is horrid. I would consider American or Korean before I went out and bought a VW.

I guess you're one of the lucky ones!

Honda reliability is miles ahead of VW/Audi...

"V DUB" has such a bad reputation for electrical problems, let alone everything that goes along with the electrical end of things in the car. ECU etc.

My TSX was a bit of a lemon when it was brand new, but now after 8 months of ownership it has proved to be pretty robust. I never stopped liking the car when it was being a piece of crap, but now that it has been reliable, I like it even more.

same here.


With that said, Audi is still not even close to Acura in terms of reliability.
