Cheers guys, thanks for the comments.
I had a full refund from the garage, they were a slightly bitter about the situation and tried to get me to buy another car from them but I would have been doing that for no reason as they had nothing else I liked.
I am having a rest from VAG, my last...
Yeah that noise was the least of my worries.
Not sure when people mention the clutch in this thread, if they are refering to me or the thread hijacker. My issue was certainly not the clutch.
Yeah this has been the week from hell. Wallet stolen, watch the missus bought me for Xmas smashed, house keys are on my audi key which is obviously with the audi....
They have got a few other cars there, the other Audis they have are diesels which I don't need living 3.5 miles from work. All...
Thanks to those for the genuine concern and advice.
I have been told by the garage that the chain slipped causing valves to bend etc (I was told second hand, yesterday when my wallet was also stolen so my head was in the shed as it were!)
The garage have offered a full refund or a decent...
Thanks for the concerns and advice. I am trying to recall what the mechanic told me. I believe the chain slipped. The car has done 90k miles, full audi service and timing belt had been changed in 2012.
I will wait to see what the dealer does. They have not contacted me as of yet I have had to...
Well it seems they are attempting to fix it, but I really don't want the car back!
Where do I stand? I bought the car 10 days ago (3 of which the garage had it back to do the thermostat), I bought it from a dealer on finance
Help....

Driving along the M4 today around 70mph, 13 miles in to my journey and the red oil pressure can warning light starts flashing. Nursed it off the next junction (thankfully, 20 meters). I was at work at the time on my...
I'll contribute.
I have the SE S-line, 220bhp, Quattro.
Two tone black leather, Black Tail pipes and DTM wheels (which I like, haven't cleaned them yet though!)
So it seems like I am not the only one with this issue; a few guys at audizine and stateside call it a rattle snake under the bonnet.
Here is a link to someone who has exactly the same sound as I have;

New turbo time?
Ok, been for a test drive on my lunch.
At idle out of gear rev the engine to 2k and the mechanical buzz/whirring noise happens as the revs drop. I can't seem to get the noise to happen when I am in gear and in motion.
The noise also happened as i turned the ignition off to leave the car...
Sorry to bump up a thread.
I have a question about the PCV system. I took the oil filler cap off the engine, whilst it was running and there was suction and the same through the dipstick. Is this normal or not?
My idle is fine, I was just having a nose around the engine and can recall...
