And in this climate they could well have gone bust before (if) it gets made and you'd kiss it goodbye.

Also got the letter and fully agree with the comments about the reaction from Jeremy Hicks - very good for a car manufacturer in my experience.

RE: Re: RE: Update on DRC issue - possible good news ?

Yeah but Lotus say same thing about the fact they build cars with a definite track bias but wording on the warranties suggest it could void your warranty ... never had an issue in reality

Update on DRC issue - possible good news ?

To avoid taking the other threads off topic I thought I'd update with my experience to date - apologies if this has been posted but couldn't see it anywhere. In short had great service from Epsom Audi who replaced my front shocks without any issues but I felt the need to write to Jeremy Hicks at Aud...

Took my car to Epsom Audi last Friday who found DRC issues, they were short on fluid so they got some from another dealer by Tuesday. So if you've been without your car for 4 weeks I would suggest your dealer isn't trying and a sense of humour failure with the dealer principle might help !

Re: RE: DRC and contacts at Audi - HELP

I would add that having owned Lotus's for 9+ years then having one problem with a performance car is a doddle so don't give up on the Audi quite yet !! The lotus didnt cost £50k though did it? Nope ... fair point (and it was said with tongue in cheek) but last one was £35k which to be fair is still...

RE: DRC and contacts at Audi - HELP

Update is that Epsom Audi phoned me today as promised and told me to drop car off tomorrow as they have got the fluid they need from dealer in Somerset and will have car sorted.

So far so good with them.

RE: DRC and contacts at Audi - HELP

To be fair have spoken to customer services and they've been great so far (awaiting call back) but best of all the dealer service guys at Epsom Audi have worked miracles and come up with enough "oil/fluid" to sort my car from other dealers- should arrive with them tomorrow and will sort car on Wedne...
