Exhaust Clamps

Post by kerniez » Wed May 24, 2017 9:20 pm

My RS6 has just been in for its 2 year Inspection and the dealer made a comment to say the the mid exhaust clamps were leaking and are an advisory replace. Has anyone else seen this, should these need replacing?

Other than that a clean bill of health.

Thanks in advance

Just for information guys, the dealer was determined that these aren't covered under warranty. A call to Audi confirmed otherwise - Audi replaced under warranty.

I now know why they are referred to as "Stealers"

Do these dealers really think you would just go ahead and pay when you have a car with full manufacturers warranty for 3yrs. Manufacturers warranty covers most things apart from the normal wear items like brake pads, tyres etc. Plus any dealers looking to get you back to buy another 90k plus car you'd like to think they would just go ahead with the clips ffs 😫😫😫
