Arthur, I do not know the OP. You have issues with me, but it's not fair to take it out on a newbie who has come here for help.

again, there is no 'you & me', it's all in your head...
I just have a low BS tolerance...

he posted that his engine is being replaced due to carbon...
exact same symptons as 2many's car...
the second ever reported...withn days of the first...
you don't find that 'strange'?

isn't this signficant?
I would like to contact Audi and determine what is going on...the more documentation, the better...at this rate, 2 engines in 5 days, all 12000 should be replaced in short order, lol

he didn't come for 'help'
he made a statement
YOU followed up digging (giving him an excuse) to divulge the 'issue'

NO where did he ask for help...
he's been here 7 months and this is his first post...

Another post spoilt by the ever-aggressive Arthur. If you don't have anything constructive to say and your aim is just to undermine people's posts then just dont post. it is neither interesting nor beneficial to read your conspiracy-theory posts. You single-handedly make this site annoying whilst offering no help to anyone except to attempt to discredit anyone who has an issue with carbon build-up.
I have opinions on loads of things and am an intelligent guy, but unless I can be of assistance or have something slightly light-hearted or humourous to post I don't bother. I get the feeling that this is how most other people on this forum make a decision to post something.
Can we not get rid of this guy? About time we had some proper moderation on here with some basic rules.

Right, I'm off to sit in a darkened room !!!!
