Default just got the car back

Picked up the car from the body shop on Friday. Within 5 minutes of driving it, the check engine and EPC lights come one. Took it back to Audi and they said something about intake sensor. It just never ends...

Sounds like you're not having much luck.. maybe the techs are worthless ?

The car is cursed. See if you can trade it.

I had a bad intake sensor and bad vacuum lines. Finally got my car back after 6.5 months! Seems to be OK except for a harmonic vibration at about 2-3 K. Does it more while cold. Good luck getting parts!

Default What's up with parts?

I just don't buy the whole "RS4 is an exotic car" argument. There needs to be a better inventory of parts in North America, and better availability of RS specialists in the service departments.
