Here's my story ... form Friday/yesterday
At my 16k service last week, I pointed out to my service adviser that I had a bubble on my OEM tire.
The dealer offered a warranty replacement of my P6000 (which was almost
worn out). I didn't want another OEM tire when I was about to replace all 4
with a different style, etc., and the dealer told me to call AOA. I called
yesterday, and they said I could replace it with a tire of my choice and
they would reimburse me the cost, as long as I sent them the receipt and a
copy of the dealer service report. No problem I said. Then they said that
I would no longer have any warranty with Audi on the replacement tire. I
guess, if you bubble all four, and let Audi send you replacements under
warranty, the new tires are also warranted. Could be a nice way to get all
4 tires for free!
Anyway, I will replace all 4 with S-03's and try to get reimbursed from
Audi for one of them. I didn't push the dealer at all, and was not really expecting replacement on a tire with more than 15,000 miles on it.
