Default Who else has a hard time believing AoA could find 50 qualifiers, let alone 8 winners? lol

only 2 winners from the Northeast. 1 from Schenectady, NY and one from Norwell, MA. Nobody within 4 hours from here! lol

I like the one criteria for fixing a repair . . . "<i>The technicians must diagnose two cars that are broken and properly fix them according to Audi procedure, all while racing the clock</i>"

That is not always the best or fastest way to repair something! lol

Default I do...

I live about and hour from this supposed #1 tech dealership, but I go to a closer dealer for my services. Just by reading the forum I have been advised to steer clear of the Langan dealership. If you do a search on this you will find some very pissed off people.

Yeah - I had a hard time believing that they even employ 50 mechanics in the US ;-)

Default and they say that the dealers have hired more mechanics the last few years?

I have not seen a single mechanic hired in 2.5+ years at 3 different dealerships! Nor have I heard of any mechanics being hired. Everyone around here complains about not enough mechanics! lol

That article reads as though it were written by the AoA propoganda machine.

Default Of course they could! "Problem not reproducible" -- got it on my last service check invoice!

Takes all of 2-3 seconds, I guess.

From my experience they would have won given the number of times that's been on my invoice.
