Really? You bought a 2001 4.4i I bought it 180 000 km a year ago. Its 218 now
and you were expecting what?

Nobody knows what kind of condition it was in when you bought it or how it was maintained.
So with all due respect in your case I can't agree. Any vehicle can be called a crappy build under those circumstances......

Besides all the suspension issues air suspension went, rear struts, abs, vacuum leak, camshaft sensor, bearings, 2 lock handles, 3 windows (I mean plastic attachments??? come on...), post cat O2 sensors and last but not least chain guides($$$$$$$$). I realize those are the COMMON issues. But for a car that boasts german engineering there should not be COMMON issues that are prevailant through all the models and never get fixed.
