>>28470970 (OP)They’re really good desu and pretty fun to drive. They have water pump issues but that will covered by warranty most likely. I sort of recommend dealer service only bc Audi is generally pretty customer friendly and at least where I’m at it’s only $20 more than the indies per hour.
I’d do the Trand and diff fluid every 30k ahead of schedule due to some issues that pop up with the DSG, which is btw a very good sporty gearbox, and lastly I’d plan on doing at least the control arms around 60k miles preventive becuase Audi was using soft rubber for NVH reasons and you’ll beat up your chassis if you let the old ones stay past their due date.
It’s a very good and reliable car and trans and really if you kept it to 120k you MAY have a few bills above $1k but usually not. It also looks to be better than the new one but I don’t like all the extra filters and hybrid tech they stapled in to the same drivetrain.
Nice car. You’re also prob faster than most NARPs that post here.
Tuning wise I like 034 and APR but I’d recommend sway bars and Ohlin springs first.
