Buying an Audi was the most expensive mistake of my life. I sold it after absurd hourly diagnostic fees and break after break.

guess it how you take care of them. On my 3rd Audi since 2009. 90k on the first, 160k on the 2nd. Never an issue other than scheduled maintenance. 30k on this one.


You have had 3, his businesses has sold and serviced 1000’s.
Glad you can maintain your cars, but my then 16 year old needed a tank not an Audi.

My daughter has an Audi, fingers crossed it keeps running good. Really fun car to drive, it handles better than any other car I’ve driven.

Well I guess if your buddy said it, it must be true.

Audi must have a hell of a marketing team if all their vehicles have costly repairs the second they hit 30k miles. Somehow they keep selling.

I must have gotten lucky the last 16 years.

My Audi AC went out and it was 3000 to fix and it honestly was not completely fixed. Here is the big kicker..Want to know who works on AUDI's in BR...Welp, you guessed it AUDI. How long it took for them just to diagnose? (3 weeks) and to fix....(an additional 2 weeks) Good luck man....Never again.


Keith’s Automotive, corner of Airline and Florida Blvd in BR works on imports including Audi.

Good work and notably cheaper than the dealership’s service.

That one’s gonna hurt.
First, you have to find a good, honest mechanic that works on them.
My mechanic in BTR, doesn’t work on them. But did it as a favor. Audi wanted somewhere under $3,000. My friend said Audi parts were around $400.

I just had him do my 2021 Toyota Tacoma brakes. New pads and turn the rotors. $185 total. I know I wouldn’t do them if you paid me $185.

Charlie Bullock in Monroe can fix them. He’s reasonable. But,it’ll take some time.

Good luck. Be thankful you aren’t in Baton Rouge and have to use Audi dealership. Nightmare to deal with. Never could fix the air in my wife’s car but managed to screw up something else while it was in their shop.

You must admit it’s kind of endemic to Shreveport writ large.

It’s not well-hidden in the City Motto:

I out my truck in the shop to replace the radiator and replace valve cover gasket.


Get halfway home from picking it up and realized the passenger side AC is not blowing cold. Either the blending doors are out of sync or broken. FML.
