    Steering Issues - 2013

    Mine is also an annoyance vs. a real problem. Now the weather is warmer, I am not experiencing any steering issues. I would still buy the car.

    I'm also in the same boat in terms of annoyance. Hoping mine won't turn into a real problem (knock on wood) I also agree with Mrads...if I were in the position of whether or not to buy an S4, I still would. Love the S4

Nothing. he had no reason to lie to me after i'd already picked up the car, and i told him i'm confident that audi will figure it out, and even some people have found a potential vag com fix. he's never been shy about giving it to me straight, so i think it's just not as well known as we may think.
    I live in an area where I have 3 Audi dealers within a 30 mile radius. Two of the three service managers said they were unaware of the problem with one making no eye contact. I was pissed. I had an area rep. take car then finally the third service manager. We went for a long ride. During that ride he admitted there were a number of complaints about this steering with no known fix. This included other Audi models. Anyway...

    Now that this steering problem has been corrected yes thumbs up I would recommend this car. Two weeks with the then terrible steering I would not have recommended thus car.
