I don't know if there was a tech bulletin on this.

I drive a 91 200QW and my wife has an 87 5000SQ.  I have a couple of
friends that have 92 100cs's.   So I'm helping them to get a handle on
what to expect with thier cars.   Both cars were purchased used so it
could be an issue of mechanical abuse for the friend that has had 
the recent breakdowns.   

We tried to do some research before he bought it but we found no
glaring problems.   Its a bummer for Audi if these cars taint there
image any further.

thanks for the feedback,
Carl
