Re: 11000 miles and new diff needed!!
Had noticed these but neither are in the Audi dealership and therefore the Audi warranty (for what they decide it's worth) on the older ones warranty is near out and the other is audi retail plus but without the Audi backingklauster wrote:Couple on pistonheads, not far off mileage and colour...

Re: 11000 miles and new diff needed!!
Correct, if standard of course....the older one of the two you listed is nigh on out as an 11/11. The other still has some warranty to run but I doubt up to what Audi would like to think of their standards hence has ended on the aftermarket .klauster wrote:you have 3 years warranty no matter where you buy it from?

In addition to the losses already incurred from trying to fix the car.uncapeez wrote:Nope less than £400 retail difference...

Personally I don't see the problem. Consider any other retail environment - you buy a phone, it doesn't work, they try to fix it, can't, give you a full refund and then you ask 'a shop down the road has one I like for slightly more. Go buy it for me'.
You'd get two words with three f's back. Granted it would have been nice but if you'd have taken the money an gone to the other cars dealer you may have secured it.
Re: 11000 miles and new diff needed!!
Well if nothing else, the replies have shown a pretty even split about customer service , expectations for Audi and their dealers, and the views on rights and wrongs. There is definitely and arrogance and ignorance from the business manager at Slough Audi, and yet there were a few there that couldn't do enough to try and help, (a girl on service reception). (The top tech). Again, there is a division. Maybe they have it on record from years ago when they tried to f"@k me over by charging for work not carried out and they got caught. I know they won't give a toss but Slough Audi won't get anymore business from me.

having a good dealer who will fight your corner makes a huge difference, there are some really shonky ones out there and some bloody brilliant ones like walton audi

Re: 11000 miles and new diff needed!!
As long as the warranty hasn't expired should be easy to extend
Re: BUYERS BEWARE OY11 HVM GEARBOX/DIFF PROBLEM
So ....I was right. Slough Audi have put the car up for sale on their Sytner Auction site. Bigged the car up re chipping and exhaust and turbo??? Mentioned there will be no warranty on the car but not mentioned what Audi know as the problem. Also in the time they had the car in their possession they have chipped a wheel, scratched/gouged the bumper and scratched the drivers seat. They even mentioned I didn't want to give the car back but it was me who felt it best!!! Lying cheats.

Re: BUYERS BEWARE OY11 HVM GEARBOX/DIFF PROBLEM
There's one in Bolton looks doable but has had paint and don't want to spend a day round trip to find it's no good. Liking the idea of waiting till the Vw golf Evo r comes out now...
