| 2002 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE | AUDI SERVICE PERSONNEL NOTIFIED ME OF A CAM SEAL LEAK DURING THE 10,000 MILE SERVICING. THEY ATTEMPTED TO FIX THE PROBLEM ONCE, BUT IT STILL LEAKED. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT A SPECIAL TOOL FROM GERMANY IS NEEDED TO FIX THE PART. SO FAR THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OVER TWO MONTHS - AND STILL WAITING FOR THE TOOL. AMAZING, HUH? |
| 2003 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | I HAVE A 2003 AUDI A4 1.8T QUATTRO. A MESSAGE CAME ON MY DASHBOARD STATING THAT THERE IS A LEFT DIPPED HEADLIGHT PROBLEM. WHEN RESEARCHING, IT SEEMS A LARGE AMOUNT OF OTHER AUDI A4S HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. THIS SEEMINGLY WIDESPREAD PROBLEM SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AS IT IS VERY UNSAFE NOT ONLY FOR THE OPERATOR, BUT FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND PEDESTRIANS. THE BULB IS NOT "BURNED OUT" AS IT HAS WORKED SPORADICALLY SINCE THE FIRST WARNING CAME ON. *TR |
