1998 Audi A4 1.8

Summary:

Sexy Black bullet

Faults:

Sexy Black bullet Beautiful car and all, but funny thing is that all the A/c ducts broke of the dash board for no reason. very very sensitive automobile. Oil pipe leaked into the radiator which was $500 to replace. Other than that can anyone please let me know if the automatic transmission normally goes up to 5000 rpm before the next gear change? is that how they're built or should I get it checked out?

General Comments:

Overall I love the car it's powerful and fun. Hey and the chicks seem to dig it also :)

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

The A4 comes with a very tall first gear. I noticed this also while I was test driving one. Nothing wrong with it, its simply designed that way.
