F**cking AOA.. update on my non-starting S4..
Apparently the valves hit the pistons somehow and Ogner (the Auto Gallery) is calling in the AOA rep to look at the car because I have Bailey valves installed.. If they try to blame it on the Bailey valves, that's utter horsecrap.

I would call the AOA rep, get the number from the dealer if you don't have it
The one in the Southeast is pretty reasonable and will listen to your problems, yours may be the same.

I wouldn't freak out yet... (yet)...
They could very easily just be covering themselves... if the pistons hit the valves, you probably need a new engine, which is a serious outlay for the dealer. Most dealers won't touch that until they've had a write-off from Audi with ANY aftermarket stuff, because if Audi chooses to not pay, then they have to fight with you for the cost of the new engine.
Until they start making an issue (they being AoA), don't freak out too much.
