Can't say I have much confidence in Audi dealers, Birmingham Audi denied damaging my car and took me three weeks to get them to admit it. I took it to Stratford Audi next, when I got it back it had 6 miles extra on it (2nd service) but I couldn't be ***** complaining.
All you can do is provide...
If 100% feedback and a warranty are enough to give you confidence in the cars reliability that's your choice, it could be nothing at all but I wouldn't feel safe knowing such a new car had 4 owners even after an approved mechanic inspection.
The only advantage of PCP is cash flow, you are 'hiring' the car instead of paying outright and you can hand it back at the end. All depends on your financial circumstances and what you want to do when the PCP is up, even then if you are sure what you will do at the end things could change...
I was considering selling mine but realistically I will get around 12.5 for it so instead I'll just wait and trade it in when I change, less hassle and no one telling me "its a prefacelift mate", etc.
Best thing to do is wait if your limit is 12k, they will come down eventually however mileage...
Had the same thing, I've used my fitter for years now though. They let a trainee on it and he used a tool which slipped, I know he didn't mean it but it is not good enough.
Next move; to try event tyres, no one has a bad thing to say about them yet. Best to just move on, if you must simply call...
Could do with a few price guides on my A3, Parkers isn't the most accurate!
Details:
Audi A3 DSG S line 55 (2006)
Silver
Heated seats
24k miles
2 services by Audi
Couple of lightly curbed wheels and a 3" scuff on an arch (not hugely noticeable)
?
Could you show a pic of the interior and gear knob? Or could you tell me is it the standard auto in an A3 or does it look like the gear in the TT automatics?
Cheers guys, it's red and for VW G12+.
The amount is just above minimum so I will wait until the next service (about 1,200 miles) but will keep an eye on it.
I've topped up my screen wash and spilt a bit around the outside of the cap, is this a worry or is it ok? I was wandering if I should pour water around the area or not.
Secondly, all the anti freeze bottles are asking to drain the current anti freeze - am I ok to mix it with the current one as...
So you're getting the car back and repairing it yourself through them giving you money? Why?
I'd assume a new set of keys and reprogramming the locks would be all it needs, a friend had his changed after a theft and I think it cost around £2,000 if I remember correctly.
Think of it as buying a new car, except its the less expensive illegal and evil way - that's unfortunatly what a "ordered" stolen vehicle is.
I really believe glancing in your mirrors, garaging and being careful where you go can help. I know it won't eliminate the risk but it does something...
Just remember there are two new S3s, pre-facelift and facelift, the pre facelift suffers a bit more depreciation and has a higher tax band than the new S3.
