Just bought a new A4. Premium Quattro, 6spd, Tech & Navi. I do a lot of driving, about 50k per year.

I've heard the Audi and other German automakers have very high repair costs? Once I get past warranty and about 100k when things need some replacing should I expect to spend a lot more on repairs than with domestics? Have I been misinformed?

Thanks

German staff like audi, bmw, mercedes ..... they usually much more expensive compare to domestic cars.
1. much more for labour, more hours 'cause is more complicatet
2. more for parts
3. more electronic staff
4. more gadgets
total = more $$$$$$$$$$$$ especially after warranty!

Do what I do...sell it after warranty is over =)

my problem is that that would be every 1.5 years

Yes, it will cost you a lot more than an American or Japanese car. As Jermey Clarkson said. "The more you pay for a car, the less reliable it will be"

I'll buy it from you with 100k on it. Let me know when you are done with it. I have a kid now and the wife is complaining about the small backseat. I've looked at the A6 and the parents have an Allroad but I find it is just to big a car.
