#1802 of 2132 Re: Serious Engine Problem with 2007 A4 [utahjake] by rascal99 Jun 05, 2008 (5:37 am)
Replying to: utahjake (Jun 04, 2008 5:32 pm) I am glad everything turned out well for you. I think the A3 is a great car. If you really like it I would say keep it. You probably hate Audi right now; but, you are not proving anything to Audi if you get rid of it for spite. There are other car mfrs. that would have acted in the same manner believe it or not.   It is a shame an attorney and mediator had to get involved. I would have thought if you retained an attorney Audi would have gave in.
#1803 of 2132 Audi A4 flasher/indicator unit by catman0210 Jun 08, 2008 (5:38 am)
I had problems with the flasher unit/switch working intermittently. I took the switch out and stripped off the casing to look for broken circuit or anything obvious, and found that the unit worked if held at a certain position whilst still connected. I bent the terminals at the back just slightly and applied WD40 and it cured the problem. Cheaper that a switch! Could be worth a try.

#1807 of 2132 Help! by brokencar Jun 18, 2008 (9:06 am)
I have an A4 convertible (3.0) Qt   i have had it for 4.5 years and have only done 21K miles.   the other day, the coolant was leaking. the garage have concluded that it is a crack in the short engine block. This is surely not down to wear and tear. Audi customer services are offering £1K towards a £7k bill. They do NOT accept it is a manufacturing fault, but will not tell me what caused it. Engine blocks do not just crack after 21K miles?   help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 20, 2008 8:33 am)

Replying to: brokencar (Jun 18, 2008 9:06 am) Depends on whether you allowed the car to overheat or not. If the crack (I assume in the cylinder bore) was due to a severe overheat, you'll have a hard time getting Audi to step up for that. If you can swear on ten holy books that the temp gauge never went into the red and that the overheat alarm didn't go off, then I'd raise hell with them. You might ask that a factory representative examine the block. These field engineers travel from dealer to dealer.
#1809 of 2132 Re: Audi Extended Warranty [shivdasa] by eddie650 Jun 21, 2008 (2:50 pm)
Replying to: shivdasa (Aug 26, 2007 2:07 pm) My dealer just sent me an offer for an extended warranty on my 2005 Audi A4 convertible and it was about $4,600 for an extra 4 years or up to 100,000 miles. Though it seems like a lot to pay out at one time, I almost expect to pay out about $1,200 or more per year anyway once I'm out of the regular warranty and the car is over 4 years old. I expect to buy it, but don't know if there are competitive offers around. It's offered bt Total Protection and is called "Supreme Coverage".   I'm generally satisfied with my car, though I just had a coolant leak at 36,000 miles and also had aaan ignition coil replaced after the 35,000 service.

Replying to: eddie650 (Jun 21, 2008 2:50 pm) It's probably negotiable. If you really want the warranty, offer him quite a bit less, and see what he says.

Replying to: rajnicek (Oct 26, 2006 5:37 am) Did you ever figure out a fix for that rattling coming from the drivers side door/under the dash area?? I just bought a 06 a4 and it has a rattle when going over rough pavement
