2023 Audi S5 Sportback — another software-related recall — are cars getting too centralized?

New-model numbers always look better than curb weight and tire size. Check whether your 2023 Audi S5 VIN is actually in the affected batch before you plan a dealer day. That's where I'd start. On “another software-related recall — are cars getting,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Run the total, not the monthly, before you commit. Wrote this up on my lunch break.

I'd wait for the actual TSB/recall population, not the headline. On a 2023 Audi S5, I'd care more about the remedy and downtime than the press wording. Then you'll know the next fork. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. Doing the boring step first on purpose.
