In America we only have 4.2 and W12 and 5.2 engines and leather seats. The electronics are all very tout. And the switch's and soft touch materials if only used with skin and not your nails, last a long time. all of mine are still intact. Humidity and heat also play a huge role in the buttons. Such as door locks, all 4 in my 05 are melted looking. Having a solar sunroof and using the blower option increases that and will allow moisture to enter the cabin. I've done head gaskets and all the timing in these cars, and no harder than doing the 2.7t S4 I have. Comparing this interior to a BMW or Mercedes, the 7 series has a literal crap interior for button feedback. All the buttons are plastic, and creak and bend, if its shiny, its plastic. A8 uses Aluminum for the polished switch's.

You must have the older 4.2 MPI (not FSI) correct? I was told I couldn't get LPG for my 3.2 FSI in the same car due to the FSI being direct injection. I did walnut blasting (carbon cleaning) and chiptuning for more efficient driving. After that my car drives more efficient but still a gas hog relatively speaking haha. I was happy to see 5.5-6.0L/100km consumption when driving around 50-60km/h cruise control in highest gear flat ground. Driving in stop and go traffic still gives atrocious gas mileage (especially with Dutch gas prices), but at least steady speed fuel consumption have improved a little doing these two things.

These cars are very reliable and durable, if you cares about them and maintain them properly, but sometimes you needs to be willing open wallet very wide, as spare parts are still expensive. That is also one of reason, why most of them are in terrible shape, as previous owners decided to simple ignore all errors, and just to drive. Back in 2017 I decided to get fix completely mine (4.0TDI), it was super expensive, but since that it is serving excellently.

Jakieś kontrolki od świateł automatycznych itd ... czujnik kąta skrętu się pali, ABS. Słaby ten samochód. Walczysz z nim nieumiejętnie przekładając ręce na kierownicy ...
