Well as some of you may know my car is in the stealers for the last week getting three relays changed.
Now that service is a joke.
Anyhow previously in January I had to rent a car for 2 weeks while they tried to repair an immobiliser fault on my A3 and now it will be at least 10 -14 days to change 3 relays.
I can no longer cope with living with an Audi.
Don't take me wrong, the car is great, I love the styling, the torque, quality, build, and so on but the service from the stealers is total ****. Anytime I ever had to call them their response was always the same "sorry but we can't fit you in for at least 3-4 weeks" no f*****g wonder when it takes them this ****** long to change a relay. Just as well I could change the bulbs myself.
Anyhow I'm after some advice on what alternatives to I could get for my 1.9TDi 130bhp A4 - it's a 2001 so I'll have approx 20,000 to spend. Passat is out as the Audi / VW is the same garage in my area.
The dark side is calling with a 320d but I'd appreciate your advice all the same. There are not many alternatives to the A4 TDi out there. I don't think I could downsize or even go for something like a mondeo so please help me in looking for an alternative.
Dave.
