Pixels missing from dash display (common problem)
Snapped belt, new head (common problem)
Anti roll bar (ceramic coating goes and cant be replaced) (common problem)
Engine mount bolt stripped
Wheel bearings x 3
Exhaust
Temp sensor (common problem)
Coil pack (common problem)
Passenger window mechanism broke
Radio volume control went nuts (common problem)
The list goes on
Wouldn't touch a pre 03 Audi ever!
