Calvin,
You forgot to mention the instrument cluster display fading out. I got a
chime and an autocheck warning in my 99 A6 Avant last week, but the display
was so faded that I had no idea what the problem was. This falls into the
warping rotors category - a design or manufacturing defect that Audi refuses
to take any responsibility for.

Really???? I seem to recall some turbo problems on the newer POS small
turbo cars, especially chipped at altitude.
I don't quite understand the parts supplier thing you are quoting. Doesn't
just about every car manufacturer get the majority of their parts from
someone else? The K03 turbo problems, the early control arm problems on the
2000-2001 S4, the ignition coil problems on the A4 1.8T, the warping rotors
on the A6, that now Audi won't even cover when the car is under factory
warranty, are all these parts supplier issues?
