Hi Everyone, new to this forum and a new S4 Cab owner
Bought myself a Jun 05 S4 Cab last Thursday, had a fantastic weekend big smile on my face and put over 500 miles on the clock, wonderful car
All went pear shaped on my way home Monday night when the engine dropped down a few cylinders and sounded like a bag of Sh!* Had to go through the embarasement of having it hauled away on the back of a truck in front of all my neighbours so not a happy bunny!
Turns out 6 coil packs need replacing reading around this sounds like a common problem is there anything I can scream at the dealers to try and prevent this? Wont get the car back till tomorrow so pretty fed up how expensive are the packs and are they easy to replace, reasonable mechanic and would sooner do it myself than wait for Audi mechanics to find a slot in their workshop
What other issues are there with the S4? you can imagine that I am beginning to get weary (only driven the thing 4 days and its broke) if I have done the right thing here, breaking down is a new experience to me having driven Land Rovers for 17 years without a single breakdown!
Cheers, Ken
