    Couple questions.
    I heard that premium fuel isn't required on the 2024 like it was previously. What kind of effect did that have on the engine?
    With the eyesight system, how does it account for it being a manual? If the system decides it needs to slam on the brakes for you, does it automatically push the clutch in? How about when adaptive cruise control slows you down below what is appropriate for the gear you're in?

      @@Link_1129 Indeed. The head gasket issues were on things like the outbacks... these issues haven't been seen for many many years. The ringland failure in the STI EJ was the biggest issue, so jokes about head gasket's really show how little people know tbh. I assume you know, so just putting it out for others, that the FA24 is a heavily beefed up FA20, with almost none of the shortcomings. Without any engine work, it can take about 450whp until it starts lifting the head (so need stronger studs), and by that point you would have already ruined the trans anyway lol. Crazy how low tuned these are from factory, so much potential for cheap to get 'medium' levels of sports car perf.

    • @fadmap9676
      @fadmap9676 3 місяці тому +1

      @Vecc-tq3fb Agreed. However, when i did the trade-in, i didn't want to be spending more than what i was with my STI. Overall, the cost of ownership, insurance, etc, so far wasn't that much of a difference.
      Yes, $800/year is a bit much, 66/month. My insurance only went up $15/month with the RS3. I got it CPO from Audi with a 4-year extended full coverage warranty. Only had 8k miles on it when I got it. That was one of my top priorities when trading in my STI. CPO, 1 owner, extended warranty, etc. But again, I'm roughly paying about the same I was with the STI.
