DCNISMO

Their engines are suspect....the 3.2, 2.0, and 4.2 direct injection motors all get gunked up with carbon on the valves. The 4.2 in my B6 is prone to cracking chain guides and tensioners and scored cylinders. I'm putting off Audi's until they prove that their direct
injection engines don't get gunked up. That said, 3.0 supercharged V6 in the B8 S4 seems to be ok, after having issues with water pumps going bad.

German cars, great under warranty (mostly).....not so much after its over.
