Service would do as much as they can, not more. I don't know the whole history.

Good for him... I feel like plastering stickers all over my car... 90% of parts are NLA for the Ur-q

Default I wouldn't do it! Driving around with my car looking like that. What's the point?...

I had customers at the time, they saw it and laughed at the fact that some one would waste their time doing this.
At the end of the day that's what warranties are for. I'm sure there's more to this than what I know.
I recall a few years ago I sold an A4 that had all kinds of problems in the first few weeks, we replaced her car with a new one and we took the hit.

Default Used to see a Jeep YJ with a big sign in place of the spare on the back

"I will never buy another car from Bustard Motors"

He drove it around like that for at least a year, probably much longer.

Default So is his beef with Audi, your dealership, or just frustration over the hassle of repair?

I would be pissed off too if my new car had all these problems, warranty or not.

I don't blame the guy, but I would simply get rid of the car.

Default Re: A big one!

Did this happen today? I didn't see it there this morning.

Thanks again for all your help. I stuck around for a little while to say bye but you were tied up.

I will drop off the keys either this weekend or early next week.
