I don't know about Audi reliability: check out the AudiWorld (http://www.audiworld.com) S4 forums. Search for "lemon" (as in "lemon law"), "problems" or "blown turbo". Granted, these forums attract people with problems. Go to the TT forum and search for something similar. The problem there used to be bypass valve failure and electronic window regulator failure (same with VW).
I do think that the quality of interior parts is a little better in the S4. I also think that the S4's awd system is better than the "Viggen dance." However, if the Viggen had awd, I'd never even look at the S4 because, while I can sit ok in the S4, my best friend, who is only 6'2", cannot. I'd never be able to take him for a ride in the S4. We went to test drive the TT, and he couldn't even get in the car! Also, the hatch adds so much space.
If you're interested in any car, I'd first find a bulletin board for that car and hang out there for a while. You'll learn all of the problems that people have had, which will come in handy.
