Ok, so just over 2 months ago I bought my S4 cabriolet despite all I'd read about the cam chain woes this engine suffers. My car has just turned over 78,000 miles and at the moment I can't hear any rattle at all when I start it up.
Do all 4.2 S4's eventually succumb to this or are the reported failures disproportionate to the number of actual cars out there. In other words is it only a small percentage that have suffered failure that I've read about and there are thousands running round that have never had a problem or does every V8 S4 suffer this?
