Will there be dealer and Audi contributions do you think? There isn't ever any RS3 about my neck of the woods think i have only ever seen one kicking about, seems to be plenty of S3 though

My son spoke to Stratford Audi yesterday regards test drive. But was told ALL RS3 are being recalled due to engines going KABOOM. Oil issues apparently.

Well, they've got one working as it was going up the hill today. Underwhelmed, not much noise and not much speed.

I've not heard of any engine issues yet. Is this official or still rumours?
