Wow! Thanks for this post. I'm thinking of buying one next week. I've just written a post asking for advice on things like Warrenty. What the age and milage of yours?

Re: GEAR BOX ARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH
If you want to guarantee loan car then call recovery If you get it to dealer it is then their responsibility to put you in a car which could be difficult if they don’t have any! Audi have an arrangement for loan cars outside of the Audi network. It used to be with Enterprise, and they were called A...

Re: GEAR BOX ARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH
Will be interested to see how this turn out, keep us updated here. With Audi Warranty you should get Audi Roadside Assist, so call them out and they'll check for codes etc and if needed. Get the car recovered to the Dealer and sort a loan car. Cheers Sam. Will do. Feel a bit nervous about it to be ...

Re: GEAR BOX ARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH
Needs the fault codes read but potentially a mechatronic issue. Other Audi S-tronic cars like S4's suffered from a PCB failure in that unit. Not seen an RS with that problem though until today, with your post & ironically a car I viewed with someone today. That one had a bunch of fault codes with o...
