Hi guys,
I just picked up my new shiny toy from the dealer monday evening: 2008 Audi A4 quattro MT6 2L. For a Henderson/Nevada inhabitant, a manual transmission is pretty unusual but the thing is, having european roots, I cannot stand automatics.
Other than that, I'm still wondering and discovering new and new features; I simply cannot get enough of my ride

. I'm impressed with its handling, pick up, interior style and exterior outlook. Less than impressed with the gas mileage (but I was kinda expecting this, especially coming from Toyota Corolla world).
I just wanted to ask some questions about reliability of the car. While I was always kind of dreamed to buy an Audi, after I saw my dream coming alive I started to cool off and look around internet about A4 recalls, reliability, possible issues etc. I stumbled onto some threads coming from pissed off owners but I cannot take them as a serious opinion. That's why I'd like here some well-reasoned thought out words from long time owners about Audi A4 ownership and joys and troubles that come with it.
Thanks a bunch.
