Replying to: TBeaulieu (Oct 05, 2009 8:37 am) Ditto, however, when I took my OEM airbags off the front I found that the top bolts that secure the cover plate to the assembly were very loose. This top plate puts pressure on the big O-ring that seals the unit. I went ahead and installed the Arnott bags, but I'll bet a nickel that if I had lubed the original O-rings and re-torqued the bolts, the OEM bags would have lasted me a few more years...   As above, my Arnott air bags have been perfect. If you decided to take off the OEM ones, be advised there is a press fit fastener that holds the assembly in place that you have to remove. It's a bugger to remove and was not mentioned in the Arnott instructions.
#412 of 413 Audi Allroad - Big Repair Problems - BEWARE by rdchris Oct 08, 2009 (10:43 am)
I've owned my 2004 Audi Allroad since it was new. I now have 46,000 miles on it and over the last 9 months have had to sink $4,900 into it for front air shocks and a new Torque Converter. I stomached the air shock issue, but had trouble choking down a $3,000 Torque Converter. I decided to contact Audi of America since my car has such low mileage. I was disappointed to hear back that the only thing they'd be willing to do is provide me with a 10% discount. After reading many forums I know now that Audi is well aware of the Torque Converter issue and has even changed the seals to a higher quality. Bottom line, if you're considering buying an Audi, don't expect the company to stand behind their product and do expect to be faced with sky high repair costs. Never again!

Replying to: priestess (May 25, 2009 6:08 am) I've owned a 2004 Allroad since it was new. In the last 9 months I've had both of the common problems to the tune of $4,600 worth of repair. The front air bag suspension went bad and recently my Torque Converter went out....all after only 46,000 miles. Go figure....Audi of America turned a blind eye. The car is expensive to own and the company doesn't stand behind it.........Never again.
