Default Tired of my POS...

Have been stuck in Toyota Camry for the last week because of a problem with my engine. Am I just SOL until they can fix it or? Any suggestions...
I just miss my wheels.

Default why cant you have a lonaer car? age? even then, if its gonna be many weeks, tell them

that you didnt pay 30 K to drive a camry that was more reliable than your brand new A4.

Depending on how long ur gonna keep car, it all eats into time you paid for.

Default I pulled the safety angle with them. I got an A6 for a loaner, and at BMW they gave me a Volvo S80..

because I bitched about the safety issue

Default All dealer in the Montréal region will give a brand new (less then 1K km) VW car (Jetta or Passat)

Mabe it's bacause I have a $50K car and they don't treat me the same way as an A4 driver... Don't know...
For now my car as been at the dealer two times, each time I got a Jetta 1.8T Tip.

Default Loaner/rental ? If dealer is poor ( doesn't make much money ) they don't have money for

fancy same brand loaners. Using a rental agency is often cheaper and less hassle.
