Re: Drivers door mirror housing
Just had the call from Audi (Sytner Nottingham). Audi UK have refused to pay for the repair but the dealer will foot the bill as a goodwill gesture. Implication was that goodwill was available because the car had FASH.

You can order a new mirror mounting bracket separately, have ordered one today for £46inc vat. Will be nicer finish than having existing one rubbed down and painted.

Re: Drivers door mirror housing
Maybe worth doing the same we did on the DRC issues - if enough people have the issue then surely Audi have to listen ?

Its bizarre that it is almost always the drivers side that goes.
