You'll be glad that your Audi comes with a four-year everything covered warranty. If I were you, I would also buy the extended coverage as well. But one thing I'm sure is that you won't have any rattle problems, because Audi's are built very solid. Otherwise, enter the wonderful world of electrical and oil sealing problems.

So you think your Audi is bulletproof? My friend's 2001 Audi A4 had a problem with his driver side window not going up, and this happened on a day that started to rain off and on. Dealer said it's a common problem. Good luck.

Every car has problems but I'll bet the Audi doesn't last as long as the TL would have. But nice choice! I like the car.

What's with people bashing the car when they leave it? Good luck with the Audi cause you will need it when your warranty is over. And considering the price for parts will be much higher, I hope you can afford it. Or are you going to switch to another car cause it have problems?!!:o On your way out, don't let the door hit you in the a$$!

BTW, I would've gotten a BMW over an Audi too.

Can't help it if they got a lemon or a hand me down. If anyone is paying any attention to the Consumer Reports, Audi actually has a really bad rating as far as used cars goes. I'm sure Jellycom know he will get flame for something like this, but all the power to you man, good luck at your new audi forum. I'm sure some those people are b|tchin' about their cars as well, and probably even shootin' themselves for not getting a TL.

See ya Jellycom, don't you come back no more, no more......

Its just like I have told people, the TL has its problems but its still raked as one of the most reliable cars made, you buy another car and your probably gonna have more problems, different, but more. Audies are VERY well known as having a LOT of problems, always have. If you dropped the TL simply due to having problems with it... Good luck on the Audi.. you’ll need it.

I would have bought the BMW also (although they are a dime a dozen now)...
