The TS"s problem is mechatronics failing, very common problem at 80k-100k mileage. The part cost around 10k+ to replace. All German brands become money pits after 5 years, so far out of the big 3 German brands Audi gave me the most problems, mechatronics problem, water pump failure, radiator puncture, front wheel arms rubber fail, fuel injector problem, oil seperator problem, even the radiator fan can break lol. 8 years old, got rid of it after the repairs.

Edit: oh I forgot to mentioned the Audi consumed 1litre of engine oil every 1000km, it was stupid, lucky was under warranty, car was stuck in workshop for 3 months.

if this the case, then I just need to view a Lexus for my next car. been used to japanese reliability & low maintenance cost. speed meanwhile lost to all conti in highway.

Totally agreed. After 5 years Conti cars really Bawa Masuk Workshop..Very Worried ..Vomit Lightning. NOw I hear Benz also not reliable chor..

My experience also ..Mecha sure kaput ..water pump no need to say...ignition coils ..and yes front wheel arm...Niabeh..cukup 5 years sold it

All cars get some kind of problem after 5years it's a matter of big or small. Lexus parts you can source from Toyota so repairs shouldn't be too expensive.

2011 Audi A4

kamon la

but kenot challenge big boss coffeedude's F12 yet

Next time I should change to a 130y, the most reliable car in the world.

Why do I need to search youtube? you can see the comments from other owners in this forum that shared my opinion. Calm down buddy seems like you cant handle people having different opinion than yours but dont worry I understand where you are coming from as someone who owns and bought an Audi thats why you are being defensive, dont worry many people typically are defensive about the brand that they bought after all nobody likes to admit that they made a wrong purchase especially when they purchased something that they wont be able to get rid of for years

My E Class at 200k mileage

changed gearbox once
fuel pump 3 times

W211 or 212 or current gen

W211, driven over 200,000KM

This car suffer lot for quality. Sold my family w211 last time when the sbc brake start asking for a replacement

quality down the drain since the days of w124 and w140

they didnt make merc like they used to be

same goes to bmw. after e39,e46, haih... sad case lah

Most conti cars start showing problem after 5 year. Dual clutch is normal..most of the time the spring inside the clutch spoil...sometime mechatronic. ...I replaced my gearbox spring since clutch still alot ....cost about 1.8k....and this is after 250k km.

For me, it's worth it. The feel of driving the car....Vs driving a myvi...is heaven and hell......no way can go back driving cheapo Jap or local....eventbo now my car value only 30k...it produces 390nm of torque on dynojet all coming at 1800k rpm.how else can I compare ...want to buy car also..same feeling above 200k...calculate monthly and insurance....I rather just dump money into my car.....it's old(12 y old), dash rattles....only 2 rear speaker works, go over pot hole feel like go into earth quake coz of the loose internal dash stuff.....but 390nm bruh......once go there, you never go back

+1

small small thing that be fixed , then ok lah

but yes, no way even new myvi ( which is btw from my humble opinion , this one really floating car - 1.5 version ) damn the steering is super light and I really wonder how the F those fellas can drive so damn fast on highway during rain

Very true

ES250 not too shabby, or RX350 which I may get one.


Ahhh, the pre-facelift W211s. The hydraulic brake ones are a much better deal.

What car?

Literally no steering feel somemore, due to very little caster angle.
