So basically, they haven't figured out a way to stop it. At least they have acknowledged it is a problem.

Certainly enough of a problem to make a video about it!

There's a place near me that skims discs in-situ on the car to prevent run-out issues and they see more Porsches and RS Audi's than any other make...
RS6 PE - Current
RS4 (B8.5) 2015 - Sold
A4 3.0 TDI Quattro BE Avant - Gone

The message of this video is “stop whinging, you morons”. And I think it’s fair enough.

Or is the message "sorry we are morons cos with all this time and money spent on it we still can't make it stop so we'll make a video to try and shut you up instead "?

To be fair neither is true, neither party is moronic (althoughI don’t get why people make such a fuss about this)
