Thanks all! I know it’s not right. The dealer just thinks I’m stupid evidently.
Like the rattles that ‘weren’t there’ until I asked for a road test with the technician and had videos. Such a joke!
Thanks. I’ve escalated to Audi UK and they have said they cannot override a dealer’s comments and that’s final! I’ve asked them to point me to a bulletin which states this and they haven’t produced it....
Hi
I’m now on my second S5 Cabriolet. On my first one I was very happy with the refinement from the roof. However on this one, there is a Velcro-like/fluttery sound from the roof above the driver’s head. I’m not happy with it and Audi Tech have allegedly said it’s ‘normal’ but won’t tell me...
I’ve had my S5 since December (brand new). My keyless entry suddenly stopped working and there were a weird number of ‘electrical’ type issues - couldn’t open windows, locking failed etc. Anyway, it turns out that a wire was trapped during production in the door handle that exposed it to the...
You’re joking! I have it on good form that this is issue is present on every 17 and 18 MY vehicle built. They just don’t have a clue as to what’s causing it. I’ve had water ingress on my convertible because of it. Because of the way the roof is, the window can look almost closed even if it...
I actually found the camera quality to be excellent. However, I then had a Loan car and it was awful. I realised that unless you have the advanced parking assistance pack, the resolution of the camera is pretty poor.
I would ask for the sales emissions/fuel data for the vehicle you're taking delivery of in writing. They do not have any 18MY sales data for S4/S5, hence why they cannot sell to customer order.
I think it's bigger than software from what I've been told. They're building the 18MY stock orders now but they can't do customer orders because the sales data isn't available.
I think this is actually going to be quite a big issue and is going to put Audi UK in a difficult position with those who took delivery of 17MY vehicles just weeks before they pressed stop.
B&O is good but definitely not as good as I was expecting. The standard one wouldn't be any good for me and the upgrade price isn't huge.
As touched on above, door card and speaker grille vibration is an issue.
Learned today that Audi are changing components in the 3.0 TFSI which means it is sufficiently different to require retesting. They wouldn't tell me what they're changing or why. What does this mean for us owners who have already taken delivery of a now 'old' engine?!
May I suggest we all contact Audi UK to ask more about the re-homologation which is occurring on S4/S5. I still maintain why 17MY vehicles are unaffected when there were no engine changes for 18MY.
Anybody else got any joy?
Audi UK now have a list of chassis numbers which are affected. What I don't understand is how my May 2017 17MY production S5 Cab is 'unaffected' when there has been no change in any technical figures from the start of production. If mine is unaffected but earlier production is affected, then...
I am very concerned that I may have taken delivery of a car that is in breach of current emissions regulations. Audi would not voluntarily suspend production of a vehicle without concerns. Has anybody spoken to Audi UK about this?
