Man, that is absolutely awful! I'm curious, do you have any idea about the tire pressure when you picked it up? I think I will definitely be checking mine when I pick it up hopefully in about 6+ weeks time as I will have about a 4.5 hour drive home and the roads are decent most of the time, but there are definitely some parts that are not. I guess that is what discouraged me the most was you stated that it wasn't that big of a pot hole. SIGH :-(

Try to hang tough and let us know what you find out. Thanks for sharing and hopefully tomorrow is a better day my friend.

BTW, I forgot to ask ... exactly what are the tire pressures supposed to be as listed on the RS3 (since I don't have mine yet)?

Dude - that crushes a bit of our collective soul.

I would definitely check all the other tire pressures and document them. If they weren't properly inflated when the dealer handed it over, that could be leverage.

Those pressures seem very high. I would check the owner's manual as suggested by the sticker b/c those could be suggested pressure with a max/high load.

Porsche has similar numbers for max/high load where in reality the correct pressures for a normal load are around F33/R37.

I think, deep down, I have a hard time believing it’s ours, until it’s here and we’ve signed on the dotted line… I don’t think I’ve obsessed over a car so much in my entire life… Ha!
Viking Conquest now just off the coast of Maryland/Delaware, heading north towards Rhode Island, and looks to be in range of terrestrial AIS stations soon.
