Hi guys,
First post from me here.
I want to get an A4 convertable, probably the 2005 1.8 model due to cost and as I've never owned an Audi before I am trying to do as much research as possible so I don't get stung too badly.
What are the main probs with these cars please. I've read about transmission, coil, and electric issues with many of these cars.
Are these a rare occurrence or the norm?
What should I look out for or avoid like the plague?
Any help or advice from experienced Audi drivers would be greatly appreciated.
many thanks, Tony
