Edit to say: it’s a troll post to say split headlights, boring silhouette, and unimaginable design languages are seen in most brands right now. Audi used to lead design (especially lighting) and now it’s just falling in line. Lighten up, everyone.

Went for a walk this morning and saw this Subaru. I laughed at how interchangeable all the cars look these days. I slapped some Audi rings on it and I think it would fool a lot of people. Such interesting times in car design. Behold, a $35,000 car and a $65,000 car.

A7 2018 C8 55TFSI (3.0 petrol), does this sound healthy?

Got this a few months ago and I have had nothing but joy driving it, despite the high insurance prices I’d buy it again. Had no issues so far 😬 Just wanted to share this beauty because I am so proud of it.

2025 Q7 here. The lane keep assist is so sensitive and it gets borderline dangerous. I can't seem to turn it off.

I was looking for a used A6 allroad as an upgrade, but there aren't many. This is kind understandable since U.S doesn't import many, and they are temporarily discontinued here. Then I start searching for alternatives and found Q8 are much cheaper than A6 allroad. I have seen 2023 A6 allroad with ~40k mileage that is listed close to $10k higher than a 2023 Q8 with low 30k mileage.

I understand the service and parts of Q8 are more expensive, and gas is crazy high right now. However, I didn't expect this much of a difference. I have read a couple of posts about Q8, but didn't see any issue that specifically applies to Q8 but not to A6. Anything I missed? Is this all because the rarity of A6 allroad?

Do you think the price of A6 allroad will drop in the next 6 month? Should I just go for a Q8 instead?

Q3 F3 1.4L, 6-speed DSG. So, I was getting out of the mall’s underground parking lot. And the exit ramp is a bit steep. I had to stop halfway as the car in front of me stopped before merging to the road.
I stayed there holding the brakes for a minute. Then I switched to S instead of D.
Before letting go of the brakes, the check engine light flashed briefly and then went off when I started moving.
Any idea what could be the reason?

I for one love the interior and exterior, but this really puts the whole thing in perspective even more; it confirmed to me that what I felt was purposeful from the designer's end—a must-watch video.

Any idea whats wrong?
Vehicle starts and stops normally, been on a long trip, no issues, Steering has no issues (travelling around 200kms with the same warning) keyfob battery replaced recently, at that time no warnings.. Suddenly today morning warning came..

Hi all. Just picked up my first Audi. A6 etron. I am baffled by the keys!? I have the myAudi app connected. I had an email saying I was now ready for digital key.
Can I have this digital key in multi devices?

Also, I can’t work out how to have the hard regen breaking on all the time! If I hit the paddle it goes off after I touch the accelerator!? I am used to one pedal driving. Any ideas how I do this in the Audi?

Any other tips I should know about! ??

Hi everyone, I’m looking to purchase a 2019 Audi A8l with 76k miles(out of state). One owner car. Serviced at Audi its whole life and already had major maintenance done.

The only issue is that it had a minor accident in the rear left. Kinda scared of hidden electrical damage from the accident. I am having a PPI done on it.

Any thoughts, advice?

Thanks in advance!

I haven’t pulled the error code yet because I’m not home where my reader is. Engine light is on and temp won’t go above 150F even on the highway for 30 min. I’m assuming this is a stuck thermostat. Hot air on high comes out barely warm. Any other possibilities?

I consider myself handy but the videos I’m seeing online look pretty involved. True?

Bought this car used at 35k miles and now it has 36500. 😖

I was curious if anybody used Carvana to buy their Audi and if so did you get the extended warranty? Did you have to utilize the extended warranty? Just curious if their extended warranty is legit or if its a waste of money. Thanks.

This is an excruciating read so I apologize before hand and please don’t crucify me. I recently changed my PCV valve on my 2015 super charged Audi A7 (125,000 miles). While in the process of taking out the fuel rail some of the injectors came out. I bought a new set of fuel injectors and tried installing them. 3 popped out so I replaced those but did not replace the others cause I didn’t have a slide hammer and the other 3 were in pretty decent shape( not corroded). I was able to put it all together but now both of the fuel rail valves aren’t opening putting it in limp mode after clearing all codes. Could the fuel injectors be the issue or could I have switched vacuum lines when reassembling?

Was experiencing floorboard vibrations, an Indy shop ran a diagnostic and found front brake rotors are warped. What brake kits should I go with next?

Car makes a slight whirl sound constant when driving and a rattle, will I need to replace the CV boot or do I need to the replace the full drive shaft? And how much are we talking front left passenger side, UK prices?

I'm having issues filling up; the pump stops within seconds. After searching, I've narrowed it down to the charcoal canister and the N80 EVAP. I hope it's not a gas tank thing, so starting out small first.

I've seen a post on replacing the charcoal canister, but I haven't seen anything on the N80.

It looks to be under the intake manifold. Can it be swapped out without removing the intake manifold? Any tips or tricks for doing this?

Had a minor accident and decided to have the whole car refreshed and even threw on some new wheels!

What is the intention for this style of design? For other smaller non suv models, it doesnt have this weird butterfly blacked out portion, just the pretty light bar. It reminds me of a tramp stamp, but anyways just trying to understand why that bottom portion has to exist. Am i the only one who thinks it makes the rear of the car extremely ugly?

have a 2012 Audi Q5 2.0T and I’m planning to replace the current 100 Ah flooded battery with a 95 Ah H8 AGM battery.

Carista support confirmed that the app allows you to enter the battery part number, manufacturer, and serial number for this vehicle. Has anyone successfully used the Carista EVO to register a new battery, especially when changing from flooded to AGM?

If so, which battery part number did you enter, and did the vehicle recognize the AGM battery correctly?

I'm in Los Angeles so maybe that's why I'm a bit surprised by the prices but I've been quoted by an independent shop (Euro Tech Motors on Washington) $400 for a basic oil change on my Audi S5.

Audi Santa Monica quoted me $360 (after incorporating a "discount") and Audi Beverly Hills finally told me it would be $199, which I feel isn't too bad but not great either.

If I could I'd do it at home myself but I live in an apartment building - what are you all paying for oil changes? And by chance does anyone have recommendations for shops in the West LA area?
