No Luck
No luck. not even a little bit.
i bought my audi primarily because i travel so much and i wanted the Quattro system. so it does great im totally inlove with my A4 but sheesh. every week its something new.
just these little things, all kinds of them
today i needed to be at work at 7am, it takes me an hour on the highway, doing 80mph, so yesterday and last night we have had this big yucky snow storm in maine so i have to get off the highway to clean off my wheels, which my 17s are kinda really picky and sensitive to having snow crap built up on them and the car shakes like no tomorrow so i clean em off, but i gotta do a cleaning swipe on my windshield wiper too, i bend up the wiper arm and snap, off comes the windshield wipe, at 6am, apparently i stopped at the only gas station in the natural world that does NOT sell windshield wipers. and in the aftermath of a snow storm on the highway, that, especially on the drivers side is a must.
so i have to turn around, go home with no drivers wiper and miss work. no stores are open a 6am to sell me a wiper.
i think i may have to covet the 'BadLuckAudi' to put on my license plate. it totally is appropriate.
in a month, and with only 27,000mi i have had the ignition coils, the turbo bypassvalve, the ghost sunroof,ive had to run my headlights high beam to dry up condensation, im going to have to invest in winter wheels (shivers), a broken off wiper on a day like today is just so frustrating and i know itcould be WAY worse. hopefully i wont have any problems with my tires - pray pray pray -
its a vent but im still really inlove with this car. and i guess its good that my headlight washers work
o and the back lights, tallights burned out, changed em, then the license plates are out, and now my left brake light. today will be a project day instead of a work day

well after purchasing new wiper blades (book said they would fit) i get home and no where near the right ones! then i get looking closer, and i broke off the littlle button to do the wipers with, i call the audi dealer they said, come get one luckily they were open until noon, so while i was there i picked up the correct wiper blades, got home, a two second change. so that was done, the plate lights i got done, my brake light? ill wait on that i cant get to it.
but while this is all going on, i notice a big crack half way across my windshield.
but it could be worse. so im going to stop complaining.

by 9pm last night my A4 let me know that the day wasnt over yet.....
after i thought the big *** crack across my windshield would be the last thing, that shield that covers the brake lines(?) started banging on the bottom of the car while i was en route from Maine to Mass, by the time i got to MA it was 3/4 ripped off who knew who it flew off and hit (doh!) but i had to drive back this morning and when i got home i had to lay on the ice in my drive way and unbolt the rest of it and tear it off.
how necessary is that to get replaced asap?
it was really loud banging against the car bottom and the highway at 80mph i couldnt believe it took so long to finally start to rip off.

I'm sorry your cars having so many issues
But welcome to the forums!
And I agree with above, cold weather hates cars. Move somewhere warm and sunny!
Your having a lot of little issues.... sucks. I've only had one issue so far, my clutch died! It was a big issue but I'd rather have that then small **** constantly happening. That must be annoying, you'll really love your Audi when it stops acting up. Was the Carfax on it clean? How much did you pay? Like the color of your car btw, B6's are the best!
