After owning the beast for 4 years and Audi have written to me to say my finance is near to end I thought I would have a look in the folder I have been compiling since the day I picked the beast up

34K traveled and loving every minute

Thank god for Audi warranty is all I can say

14 shocks DRC now not leaked for 1year!!! WOW first time
4 Sets of Tyres and 4 geo's
3 sets of front pads and discs
2 sets of rears
4 services at Audi
1 Gearbox

1 Central locking Control Unit
1 A/C Fan
Engine out for an Oil leak from above bell housing
Set of Oil cooler pipes
4 Oil changes (every 5-6k)

WOW, looks like I'll definitely be renewing mine when it expires in August!

Out of interest what are the major signs the DRC is failing?

How many miles has the car?!

[marmite]

Car has travelled 68K now

Funny thing is I have done a simialer check on my wifes Mini Cooper S 2 years 6k miles

2 tyres (not worn kerbed)
front pads and discs
engine mount under warranty
Service came with a TLC package, well worth it

Add it up the same as a set of front pads and discs on the beast!!
Fuel - it is very thirsty for a little flying machine

no not selling yet, can't find a decent replacement that my wife will drive
another 1 years warranty to be done next month

plus the insurance company shelled out just under 12k after it got recovered back from the theft in sept so she looks like new again( not that she was in bad condition before) new steering wheel and gearknob fitted trims etc etc
