Very new here, if you see from my welcome post don't think the car has even officially been handed over yet as couldn't drive her away from where the salesman had parked it.
To cut a long story short on Wednesday at 1330 I went to collect my new to me 2013 S4 Avant with 36K on the clock with FASH
they had just carried out the major service. Do the usual paperwork, then away to leave with a massive grin, sit in the car and I thought it feels like it is vibrating or pulsing a bit and I couldn't remember it doing it before but thought perhaps just excitement. Put her into drive, put little bit of throttle car starts running rough EPC light comes on. Stop car go and get salesman. This was all within a few seconds of getting in the car.I opt to wait in the hope that is something simple but come about 1700 I got the dreaded news the car wont be ready today or tomorrow. Car is misfiring badly.
Yesterday as promised I got an update regarding the car, no further forward with the problem but they are now looking at the timing chain with the thoughts that a timing chain tensioner that's allowed the timing chain to move
but just guess work by the sounds of it at the moment.Really pretty gutted, audi dealership have been good so far which is the real positive thing. Hopefully they get it sorted soon
From my reading I didn't think the later cars had timing chain issues as much as the earlier ones, should I be concerned ?
