I'm disappointed how Audi made the door hinge out of plastic that easily broke. I went to Audi/VW parts and services to ask how much a new glove box would cost, since they are not able to repair it. They asked for around $375.

Setting aside that, owning this car is wonderful. I good daily driver, yet expensive to maintain. Oil changes are around $110-135. Remember that this car takes specifically 0W-40 oil according to Audi mechanics and no other. Be cautious when going other oil changes where they recommend other types with different weight. Keep in mind when purchasing an Audi over 100,000 km to ask about timing belt replacement because it'll cost ya! It set me back about $1,200.

If you decide to ride it out and avoid this, you could come into more serious complications if the belt snaps... $2000-4000 of repairs. Anyways, to set aside the miscellaneous expenses, if i were to give it a rating for the experience of the drive, I'd give it 4.5/5.
