Mine was clogged in my '02 Audi A4 and instead of doing what you did, I put two hoses on the intake and exhaust of the core, poured CLR down that bitch until it came out the other hose, let it sit for an hour, then rigged up my hose to the intake and blasted all of that CLR and calcium buildup out of there. Had to do it twice, but man having heat again after no heat during a brutal MN winter was a godsend.
Reviews of OEM Audi parts For Business

Just got a 2021 sq5 today, comes with 5 year CPO, so it has like 3 years left. My intention is to drive it for 4-5 years, they quoted me like 3.5k CAD after tax for two years. So ill have factory warranty until 2028.
Audi made it right by making the oem water pump replacement aluminum, not plastic smh.
Those cracks look worse than what mine did. I had gotten my car at 134k mileage and I changed my belt at 180k but to be very honest I think my belt had been on there for much longer before I owned that vehicle and I think I got lucky it never snapped into pieces.
R8 coil packs definitely work better IF you’re tuned.
I bought a 2017 S3 with 40k kms, best car I’ve owned so far, had to replace the water pump but I swear the OEM one is made of cardboard. No more expensive than any other car to service.
Got my water pump, PCV, and thermostat replaced a few months ago. Did it myself. If you're semi-handy I'd definitely recommend doing it yourself. My wallet was definitely happy I did haha
Since starting my drive from NY to NJ daily, ALL my previous cars, Audi Q5 and Toyota Sienna, will start "brake and shake" or was it "shake and brake".. at about a year in at around 10k-15k miles. I am guilty of heavy braking so with it comes excess wear.
I had to replace my windshield twice within 6 months of purchasing my Q5. The 2nd cracks were caused by my husband flicking a mosquito inside the car with his fingers.
Audi glass is awful. My original windshield was full of black specks. When it cracked all the way across the middle
