    My Love/Hate Relationship with my D2 A8

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I love driving my D2 A8 which serves my needs but today, I'm hating it.

    My D2 A8 is due for a smog check so today, I take it to a Smog test center. Everything is looking good during the test until I noticed the check engine light came on during the idle test. It failed the smog because of the check engine light (EVAP related). So I left the smog center with disappointment. As I dr0ve home, my ABS/Brake Idiot light comes on. Now my dash looks like Christmas Tree and it's not even Christmas yet.

    It looks like I'm going to spend some time troubleshooting the Check Engine light and cleaning my ABS Sensors. My love/hate relationship with my D2 A8 continues......

    Am I the only one with a Love/Hate Relationship with my Audi?

    Re: My Love/Hate Relationship with my D2 A8

    I hear you man. I feel the same way about my C5 A6 4.2. It seems like it's one thing after another and I can't win. A lot of money, time, and aggravation has gone into my car, but in the end the love is still there. I'm still thinking about trading it in, but we'll see.
    Remember: Your car is unique, just like everyone elses.

    Don't let your typing write checks that your body can't cash.
