The last I heard from the dealer was last Friday, when they were waiting authorisation from audi warranty to strip down the engine to find out what was causing the misfire, they think it's a timing issue.

Got a call today that the car was fixed this morning, they also done a service which was due in for anyway, and they noticed the driveshaft was leaking a little, and as there is no repair for this it now needs a new driveshaft which of course has been authorised by audi warranty, so another week before I get it back. I'm in talks with Audi UK now to discuss how to get my faith in this car put back as this is a joke now.
