    It started to become visible mid 00s. My Audi A4 was a great car mechanically - but it had to go for ‘repairs’ at least two times a year. Not because something was really broke - but because yet another sensor was malfunctioning. Massive costs, not for real repairs, but for mechanics hours figuring out which sensor was the culprit this time. Not one time there was a real mechanical problem.
