I think that's why it's still in the box
Bad day
Re: Bad day
I have a feeling Grizz at Unit20 can do warranty work, could be wrong though. I'd be asking if they could do the work up there, bet most of the audi techs have never rebuit an engine before. Most of that stuff looks to be bolt on though, keeping fingers crossed for you that you don't get silly little leaks.

Re: Bad day
That's a big lump. Not coming back to me for a while me thinks 


Re: Bad day
Tell the local spanner minkeys you expect them to ask Audi HQ for the loan of a senior RS tech to do it with them. They don't want to have to pay for it twice now do they ?
That will also focus them on getting it done faster as he will be away from his/her bed until it is sorted.
Worth a poke.

Re: Bad day
Do they loan such people ????
Re: Bad day
If there's a chance it'll get borked and Audi are are likely to pay twice, then yes, it's highly probable.
No matter where you go, there you are.
Re: Bad day
Good luck mate - I'll be amazed if they manage to get in in the right way up.

Re: Bad day
When Audi took the V10 and gearbox out of my C6 RS6....they put it all back together and the top service tech kept hold of it over weekend to check for leaks etc etc
Must admit I was expecting major snagging but all was well.

Re: Bad day
I'm kinda hoping they are taking their time to get it right first time
Re: Bad day
Aye
Don't forget its just getting assembled by mechanics in a workshop.....million miles away from factory controlled environment and tolerances when car was first built.
Expect the unexpected!

Re: Bad day
I'm trying to be positive. You're not helping 


Re: Bad day
It looks like a valve spring has snapped. How can something so small cause so much damage 


Re: Bad day
Hmmmmm, hasn't someone else had a spring fail?
