Default 2016 A4 (Recommended Warranty Service)

Hi All. I did some searching and ALMOST found what I was looking for with this post, but not quite.

I just purchased a 2016 A4 w/ 21.5K mi. My factory warranty expires in August of next year. How can I found out about any TSB's that have been posted for this car, that the dealer will handle and what, if any, nit picking items can be or should be monitored to get taken care of during this warranty period? I have the Technology package if that helps determine what to focus on....

Thanks for the help.

E.

I'm not aware of any "known problem areas you should get addressed under warranty" for a 2016. Guess we'll need a few more years to find out what's perpetually crap on the B8.5.
The electric coolant pump recall is a safety recall, so that's going to get fixed warranty or not.
But you could go through the bulletins posted to Erwin. Just going to have to read through all of them to see what they say and which might seem something you've encountered.

Thanks for the info!! Is there an easy way to determine if the electric coolant pump has been replaced?

Erwin appears to be for professional mechanics...I don't qualify and am not able to view the bulletins, but thanks for the info. I guess I can take down the TBS name/number and google it

Oh, guess the searching is free but you need to pay for the day to read the contents. Anyone can pay for it. I paid for a day to download all the repair manuals for my car. But might not be worth $35 for just a passing curiosity.
