Tell me about it, this is my fourth. Since I'm a big bitch (6'6"), I opted for the A8 this time. I love the ride and handling for such a large car, but I've blown 2 what they refer to as "quatto seals", and a valve cover gasket. You know how embarassing it is to drive down the road in a 60k car that is smoking? Now the fucking transmission clunks (I hope it is something as simple as a universal joint of some description) and I get an intermittent "L1" error along with some check engine shit on occasion.

On the other hand, my A6 quatto only had scheduled maintenance performed until I turned it in at 120k miles. The same can be said for my 100 quattro.

I'm sure the AM General is no cream puff when it comes to maintenance, but I want to avoid something that will develop into a complete hassle.
