Audi A5 Sportback.

2019 Audi A5 Sportback Premium purchased on 1-19-20. Traded the truck for this certified pre-owned hatchback with only 200 miles on the odometer. Miss the truck greatly, but enjoy the luxury and high quality of the Audi. Turns out to be more economical to drive than the truck due to the better mpg, despite it being a smaller fuel tank and requiring premium unleaded. Also, it came with a 5 year maintenance plan!

Will need some paint correction due to many swirls found on the surface (~ $400 to $500 for paint correction and sealant/ceramic coating). One shallow dent on hood found but might just live with it.  Got a quote for $175 to fix it via paintless dent repair but I'll hold of on that for now. Also, will get window tinting later ($225). 

Most people do not understand why I appear to change cars so much and that's fine. Cars are somewhat of a passion/hobby for me and I have definitely toned it down since the Porsche buying days!  If it makes me happy, wife doesn't mind, can fit the family, finances are not stretched, go for it!  Enjoy life.

No modifications made so far.  Oil changed twice at regular dealership per maintenance schedule.  Air filter replaced during first oil changed due to all the wood fires causing gobs of ash fall out.  Not part of maintenance plan.  TPMS warning light came up several times, but filled all tires to spec and reset warning.

3-17-22. 

Rear right tire low pressure warning again. 27 psi!  Ten lower than spec. Second time I filled it up…maybe about four to five weeks ago. Will schedule tire inspection at Audi while also getting a recall on the PODs done. 

4-6-22:

Right rear tire was around 34-35 psi. Increased to 38.  Appointment on 4-12 to patch tire.

4-22-22:

Rescheduled appointment to the 29th. Inflated right rear to 39, was at 35.  

4-29-22:

Brought A5 into Audi dealership and it turns out tire cannot be patched so had to replace with a new Pirreli P7 tire. Got 10% off.  $260. Recall on PODs completed as well. Nice to get it all done.

3-11-23:

30k scheduled maintenance per Audi care package.  (Only 12k actual miles). Oil changed and brake lines flushed.  Two more years of Audi care package remain.
