Judging by your sig pic, you've got a 4000q. The last decent Audi made, IMO.
The 80/90 was okay, but began the downhill slide into mediocrity and PITA to work on. Replace a heater core in a 90 and you'll see what I mean. The 5000/100/200 was a great car, when it ran and didn't leak Pentosin. That car single-handedly killed Audi's reputation.
The A4 seemed like a step in the right direction, but the numb steering, failure-prone control arms and a general nightmare to service kept me from buying one. The current crop are all very fast, very capable cars that will break in expensive fashion. And pray you never wreck one; more often than not they are totals, because they are crammed to the gills with expensive plastic doodads that explode on impact. The mounting design of the intercooler alone shows the engineers had their heads up their asses.
I'd rather replace 40 BMW window regulators than do anything under the hood of a A4/Passat.
