my timing belt crisis

[gordon]

just to get back to you's regarding my timing belt problems. Basically the timing belt failed and its going to cost me £2600 to fix but audi have offered to pay 70% of the parts costs but nothing towards the labour. i think its pretty poor from audi that they not paying anything towards the labour but l suppose its something that they are paying 70% of the parts. this is still going to leave me to pay about £1500. wat you's guys think of the offer?

Ok so they have offered you something.
But if you motor was not due for a service then surely it's Audi's fault.
If they say it's down to milage or time interval and your motor has not reached that stage then it's there responsibility surely.

If they won't budge then get a quote from somewhere else like AmD or QST to see how that compares.
