Default till tomorow

car was running great allday. got stuck in traffic and all hell broke loose, cel, epc, and the esp light would not go off, also loss of power. i really loved this car but have had it, it has 50045 miles on it. i am bringing it to audi and i really hope they will cover this problem. i told them that another dealer put new codes and that fixed it for awhile, 45,000 service vists the light were on until five minutes before i got to the dealer. they said that nothing could be done without any indication. i really hope they fix it.. i dont want to get a m5... if anybody is listening to this rant i thank you.......

that's pretty awful

check the mileage on delivery...maybe it had 20-30 miles on already?

also, mention that odometer calibrations are rarely dead nuts perfect. If it's off by 0.15% you're within warranty.

TT-RS is awesome. Get one (as long as you liked your old TT). Tell the dealer you'll order it on the spot and I'm sure they'll make your CEL go away.

If need be, find a good independent mech. for a second opinion.

Even if the light goes out the codes remain - make sure you have the best dealer for repairs
