    Paint

    Those who have followed my previous woes will be glad to know that the car has now worked for ten days without any engine issues -- hoorah

    I have, however, noticed that the paint is coming away in, stone chip sized, chucks along a line at the leading edge of the front bonnet. If i lightly rub my hands against this edge then it is rough to the touch.

    Had it in at the dealer for a looksee yesterday and the car is now getting picked up tomorrow morning so that this paint loss can be investigated and to also replace/fix a drivers seat that constantly squeaks, creaks and generally makes a brouhaha whenever my derriere touches it.

    Anyone else had issues with the paint?

    I think Audi's build quality is somewhat non-existant on the r8 line
