Nope, sorry. Mine is at 60K, still runs like clockwork, knock on wood.
Good luck!

dunno exactly what it is but i have a feeling the engine.

I want to get it fix..but past experiences with non VW dealer service,

ringing sound?? are you sure its not a wheel bearing from your 17s? The only weights on Avus I could find are 27 pounds

I'm at 71,000 km heading in for my oil change at 72,000 on Thursday, I’ve only owned the car for a year and a half, but I do a lot of driving. I've done all the maintenance and have no problems, just had the MT fluid changed at the last service.

My front brakes had to be replaced at 16,000km because they were never lubricated and had ceased, thats what the dealer told me; and my paint, only the clear coat on the front bumper peeled and had to be re-painted, those were the only warranty claims that i've had.

yeah man,
after more than 60k with the Avus, i'm worry about the wheel bearing too.
but if thats the cause, i will notice from the steering wheel.

Then,
my neighbor who is a certified mechanic checked the car and found my water pump failed

yeah, i'm that stupid..

thought my engine is gone

I bought new pump at nearby dealer and he replaced it less than 2 hours..
