Has anyone gotten this service done yet? I keep trying, but Audi of Nashville does not have the parts yet, or so they tell me.

+i got the same response from my dealer; parts for recall will be in mid March...

Thanks. At least I'm not alone. Unfortunately AoA won't release my CPO warranty until recall is performed.

I just got the recall done a few days ago. The dealer had to order most of the parts. Took 3 days for everything to get done. My dealer said they've already done 4 so far. It's basically all new, updated injector seals, fuel rail and few other things involved. They also updated the ecu file as well. My car seems to run smoother now too.

3 days to complete? the girl on the phone told me it takes around 1 hour to complete! good thing i asked for a loaner... bringing my Q into the dealer in 2 weeks, so i'll report back after.

Yup 3 days. I'm sure once the dealers start stocking up on the parts needed for the recall the actual labor wouldn't be that bad. My dealer didn't have all the parts in stock hence the 3 day turn around. They also told me that they expect to be really busy with this recall later on this month when they send out the official recall letters.

I had the dealer run my VIN. Luckily, I'm out of the recall range.
