    Soot on tail pipes?

    I've been pleasantly surprised by the almost total lack of soot building up on the tailpipes. Others notice the same? Did Audi just nail the tuning on this?

    Same here. The chrome tips on my 2009 A4 used to be covered on the bottom edge with carbon that was almost impossible to remove. The chrome tips on my B9 are spotless!

    This is good news! Is there any good chrome spray that people have used that you put on just before going through a car wash to help take off some of that stuff before it builds up.

    the B9 is that next level. the last one before the electric car phenomenon. Mine is soot free and I'm happy.
