-Audi STILL insists on using motorized "pop-up" displays for the navigation/entertainment system, even though it is wrong from an engineering point of view - this display with its multiple moving gears (some of which are probably plastic) and motors is much less reliable due to the fact that moving mechanical parts tend to wear out over time and even a single broken gear (or for example the "burned out" electrical motor that drives those gears) can render the display absolutely useless (if it will get stuck in "closed" position). Broken stuff leads to repairs, which will cost extra $$$ to the company and extra aggravation for potential customers. But then again, Audi's engineers are not really known for doing a fine work, the "form" always had a priority over the "function" (and other silly concepts such as "reliability") for them  |
Am I correct in thinking you don't like the A6?
