It was pretty reliable. I had trouble with the cruise control, but I've had cruise control problems in 3 different Audis. The only other thing that happened was the water pump went out which is a major b*tch and costs a fortune in labor. It's best to just change the timing belt at the same time. Other than that it was just maintenance. It was actually a really nice car, I liked it a lot. I wish Audi offered one that size now with the center differential quattro system, the A3 and TT I believe have the Haldex system. The new A/S 4s are getting too big for me.
