    The location of the tilt steering wheel handle and the fact that you can't stream audio/music with the non-nav MMI (from the factory). It's available on vehicles costing 15-grand ----- this is ridiculous.

    It bothers me that I cannot go from S to N or from S to manual/tip mode. Have to go from S to D before I can get to either of those.

    On the B8.5, you get into S by pulling down on the stick from D, but it returns to the same position in the shift column. So you can then slide up 1 into N without going through D. But still no way to get from M/tip to N like you said. But when do you really use N? I don't.

    It also bothers me that the car cannot remember I had the stereo off when last turning the car off. When I start up again, the music seems to come on quite loud, everytime.

    mute and the stereo off are two different things. the car doesn't remember that you had the stereo on mute but if you hold the volume button down then the stereo turns off off and it remembers that.

    I've worked at many dealerships, owned and driven many, many cars. Yes, some do offer more for less, but none can touch the refinement of the Audi and the quattro. What I'm saying is, I'll take the way better driving experience over some of the features that I do actually miss.

    I've tried both, and it results in the car starting back up and stereo coming on. Doesn't matter if I turn the volume down, or push the volume button.

    The transmission tunnel being so big and wide that it's hard for me to keep my whole right foot on the gas pedal...it doesn't help that I have a bad hip. I don't have this issue with my other cars.

    I have a b8 s-line with sport steering wheel. I really hate it that I can't select next or previous song on it. Only scroll in the playlists, but that doesn't work if you are in shuffle mode!

    There was a guy in the S4 forum a week ago complaining that his rear view camera gets covered in water when he drives in the rain - so he had to use his mirrors to back into a parking spot.
