Default Check the undertray fasteners after servicing your cars

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/86030/dsc00391.jpg"></center><p>Put the winter tires on and noticed that more than half (app. 60%) of the undertray fasteners were missing. Obviously sloppy, lazy work from the service dept. (Wish I had know b/f I gave the glowing service telephone survey.)Looks sturdy enough to wait for the next visit. I hate all these fasteners, must be a better system.

Just an FYI to check the fasteners after servicing the car.

Sorry for crappy phone pic.

That's why I put a trap door on for my oil service days (when I do it myself)

Dealership charges &gt;$130 for an oil change... figure that's enough to do the job right!
