Default Oil Change turns into new transmission

Brought my 2012 Q5 with 40,000 miles in for an oil change. The tech noticed a small oil leak coming from the front transmission seal. Five days later, Audi has authorized a transmission replacement. Now we wait on replacement coming from Germany. Audi does not want the local dealership rebuilding transmission pump. Glad to see the Manufacturer standing behind their product.

Audi also likes to get the defect returned without being touched, so they can find the root cause of the problem!

Great company!
