Known problem areas

- PDK (7-speed) low-speed shudder / rough engagement (medium odds, $300–$2,500): Low-speed shudder in stop-and-go; often software/adaptation or fluid service, sometimes clutch or mechatronic work source
- Air suspension struts/compressor (if optioned) (low odds, $1,800–$4,000): Corner sags, compressor overworks; struts are expensive per corner source
