Disclosure: This was a family car (think Room Monkeys). I had 2 rust areas professionally repaired by the dealer last April. The area where the center pillar meets the body at the bottom on both sides. I just recently noticed some whitish overspray just on a spot on the driver door - bottom/front. The center console shed it's rubberized paint. Well it started to. RM #1 came in about 3 months ago & said "The car is melting". It was this paint peeling off. The plastic underneath was a close match so I just stripped it. It looks OK. Certainly not perfect.

And a question (if you've read this far) . . . Should I disclose all of this to a random buyer? Am I an idiot if I do?

---------------------

Sorry for the diversion . . . back to thrashing/praising Audis. Both Tim's & Jim's were A6s. Hmmm. I have also heard that the 4 cyl Turbos can have issues that the 6 cyls avoid.

Ian, I will pass this on to a co-worker tomorrow who is looking for a daily driver E-46. Depending on how much trouble buying a car from Canada is, he may be seriously interested.
