[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And no one ever takes my advice, but I know enough about this stuff to call myself an expert and the way to go is a Volkswagen. Same engines, factories, builds, and great cars but what can I say? It doesn’t have the same brand appeal. Every guy out there who owns a Porsche or vintage Aston Martin or whatever. Their spouse? They drive a Volkswagen. [/quote]

I had a Porsche SUV for a while, and I noticed that boxes for replacement parts would come with several stock numbers, including separate  VW, Audi, and Porsche numbers since there is a lot of common parts shared between the brands.  If you bought a part using the Audi number, it was 2X the cost of the same part with the VW number, and if you you bought the part using the Porsche number, it was 5X the cost of the same part with the VW number.  It's even worse for Lamborghini, that often uses the same fuses/wiring harnesses, etc. (like 40x the cost of the same part with the VW number).  [/quote]
So get the Audi fixed by a VW mechanic and get VW parts. [/quote]
