Got a 2014 DSG and find around town it’s 22-26 mpg but 35 on long motorway runs.
Pros: manageable brakes
Cons: insurance isn’t great
Vehicle:
Audi S3
the only issue I’ve had with it is the brakes squeak sometimes. They work fine but it annoys me and they say it’s “normal”.
Pros: brakes work fine
Cons: squeaky brakes

People can talk all they want but I had a 2017 A4 bought at 32k miles and sold with 94k 2.5 years later in 2022 and it was by far the most reliable and hassle free car I ever had. Nothing but routine maintenance, in that period I didn’t even have to change the brakes.
Pros: most reliable, hassle free
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 32000 km
I literally just did the rear rotors/pads and front pads for my amg GTS last week. I found that MBpartscenter.com had the best price that are OEM. Only 1k per rotor (compared to the dealer who wanted 1700 each). I also got porterfield R4S pads from pelican parts. They are considered streetable/track pads. I didn’t change the front rotors yet, but if I were to I would get them from FCP euro at $500 each rotor. My mechanic charged me $500 for install and a brake fluid flush
Pros: good price, OEM parts
Yes. I do oil, break pads and rotors all the standard stuff
Pros: standard stuff
Vehicle:
Audi A6

Cons: lack of horsepower
Vehicle:
Audi RS5
Since starting my drive from NY to NJ daily, ALL my previous cars, Audi Q5 and Toyota Sienna, will start "brake and shake" or was it "shake and brake".. at about a year in at around 10k-15k miles. I am guilty of heavy braking so with it comes excess wear.
Cons: excess wear
Vehicle:
Audi Q5
Mileage: 15000 km
Just changed brake pads on the S65. Discovered an oil leak, likely from a turbo line.
Cons: oil leak
460€ per il primo tagliando della mia Audi Q2, poi dopo aver pagato anche il secondo e avendo saputo che mi volevano cambiare le pastiglie dei freni dicendo che erano finite quando in realtà portandola dal mio gommista e guardando risultavano a metà della loro vita ho capito che 3/4 delle spese messe in carico in un tagliando al concessionario Audi ufficiale sono soldi rubati, ti cambiano pezzi che non servono solo per alzare il totale..
Cons: costi alti, soldi rubati
Vehicle:
Audi Q2
