Just from the way it goes \"clunk\" when you tap it with a hammer or set it on the ground I can tell it is stiffer.
Owner reviews for subframe
​
“Audi and other German cars are not reliable” **when** **you refuse to performed scheduled maintenance**
**All car makes/ models possibly including** “Your model got recalled if you check on Google and Consumers Reports”
“Audi's cost an arm/leg to fix” **as** **quality materials do in fact cost more than inferior.**
“After 3-5 years, they will start breaking apart” **See #1 related to maintenance**
“Audis aren’t even that well built together and fall apart easily in accidents” **Blatantly false , audis are heavy as shit. If you've never seen an audi subframe removed, they are big, they are heavy.**
“Lease a German, don’t finance it at all” **This statement doesn't include a reason, perhaps the reason is to get out before you have to perform maintenance or owning the car outright?**
That's why I sold my GTI and got an R. You need to invest in the Audi/mk8 subframe, a pendulum mount, engine mounts, and better tires.
The main body of your car has two huge huge rust holes. That rust hole is where the subframe would bolt to the car, but since it’s disintegrated, your subframe now has no where to mount to.
