#21 of 23 Re: Audi Allroad - life of tires and PSI [nreilly] by dangerfloyd Nov 03, 2007 (9:38 am)
Replying to: nreilly (Aug 07, 2007 8:16 am) I recently bought a 2004 2.7T in a 6 speed. I love the car. It came with Yokohama AS 430's. So far the ride is excellent. Smooth, quite and handles well. This is my Winter/Family Vehicle. I drive a modified TT in the 6 months of better weather. I will use Winter's on my Allroad, as in Montreal the Winter's are not really 'ALL SEASON TIRE' country! The only problem I have experienced this far is the tire pressure. I have put them at 33psi although the book states 39. I will bring it in for servicing in the next couple of weeks to have that checked. I will do my best to keep you informed of any new developments.

Replying to: nreilly (Aug 07, 2007 8:16 am) The tire pressure recommendations are on the inside frame of the driver side door and it does have specific information about the tire pressure. The life of the tires depends on so many factors that the statement of 20K life has not much meaning. The tires also have to be rotated front to back per tire manufacturer's warranty - have to read the warranty. Mechanics do not look at anything unless you tell them to look. Mechanics & service managers hate to do tire alignment. Most vibration is not tires but alignment issue and poor alignment can chew up tires in a fraction of the miles they are rated for. Align tires every rotation and every time you have excessive vibration. Potholes and curbs will misalign cars.
#23 of 23 05 allroad cracked alloy wheel by max94115 Mar 27, 2009 (11:29 pm)
I bought an Certified preOwned allroad and after only 8,000 miles on top of the original 13,000 miles, I discovered that one wheel rim is cracked. The dealer who sold the car said it's been almost 2 years and even if you didn't cause the damage, it's just too late.   Do these wheels crack often? Would a pot hole in the road cause a wheel to crack? I don't think the platinum warranty covers this and so, if there is no hope with the dealer, what is the best source for an original replacement wheel? New vs. used?
