What owners wrote
All audi s4's produced from mid 1999 to 2002 suffer from an ineffective alarm system. The model years are 2000, 2001, and 2002. Due this defect these vehicles are being stolen at an alarming rate off of every street corner in the nyc metro area. The audi s4 was a limited production run vehicle. Less then 15000 were imported into the united states for sale by audi of north america. For this vehicle to be number 25 of the top 25 cars stolen in new jersey shows complete negligence on the part of audi.
ABS sensor failure on 2000 audi s4 quattro. Light came on at 114,213. Leading to the brake light to flash along side of it and beep every other minute when your driving down the road. Haven't corrected the problem because I've heard it cost 1,700. Some people don't have that kind of money. Many other people are experiencing the same problem on vw's as well as the audi in years from 1996-2001.
