 07 s-line under 25,000 miles and just put on 3rd new set of tires. i know sport suspension wears tires quicker than normal car but this ridiculous.1st set lasted 14,500 miles,2nd set 9,000 (i'm not a boy racer, i'm a sensible driver)1st 2 sets of tires were continentals so trying firestone now to see if they any better. audi cars are heavy so they should accommodate tires to suit or better still, modify cars so they are less heavy. your worth umpteen millions of pounds and still cant satisfy a lot of customers. read the problems customers have and sort them out when u pay money for any car it should not cost you every 5 mins to keep it on the road. the dealers also think everybody is 'dumb' with all the feeble excuses they come out with. customer care is an empty 2 words that don't stand for anything once the car is driven off the forecourt. i know lots of people who have audi's and the complaints from them alone would fill a football stadium. love my car but seriously thinking of changing it after the year. *tr

 I have picked up a new audi a4 january 3,2007. it has been 4 weeks and i need to replace 3 tires. one was blown from a pothole...the other one went flat as i was driving down the highway around 80 mph for about 15 miles on it. the other developed a bubble on the sidewall. pirelli told me to send the tire in for evaluation, we will have an answer to you in about 4 to 8 weeks. what am i supposed to do for a spare tire? pirelli quotes, i don't know. what a joke!!! they are no help. i don't even have 2k on this car plus 3 of my rims are bent! so much for a new car...stay away from pirelli!!! they are a road hazards...garbage. *nm

 A young lady purchased an audi a4, two of the supplied tires developed bubbles in less than 1 year. she returned to the dealer, who refused to replace them. she then had the tires replaced at a discount tire dealership at her expense. the supplied tires on her audi were continental brand, size2354517. this seems to me to be a bad problem, and audi should have taken care of it. *tr
