I've had a couple:  5ktq that had a rear shock break at the bottom
connection.  Required a flatbed.

200q20v that had fuel pump die first intermittently one time and for good a
couple weeks later.  First time required a new FP relay (too much drag?),
second required replacement.

Not bad for at least 100K  miles in three old Audis.
