Having been a Merc owner for the last 25 years having owned several and still do, I cannot believe the mickey mouse engineering in the Audi. For instance, the Mercs did not and will not ever fit a plastic cam drive belt, chains are the only reliable option. You need to be a contortionist to service the Audi, the Merc could be serviced wearing your best suit, Merc parts are also very cheap, just look in the German and Swedish cat. and compare. this should provoke some sort of discussion best wishes, John.
welcome to the forum, thats why we love Audi's
