I have only gone to Schaumbug Audi, but their plans to charge me 120 dollars for a cupholder that I replaced myself (with the help of claireparts.com) for 30 dollars (shipped) has me searching (desperately?) for a VW or Audi experienced independent repairshop in this "area". Anyone have good (or bad) experiences? Any direct referals? I am not afraid to say " ... and ____ sent me, said you guys were the best" Hope someone can help!

I don't know if you've ever done a TB yourself, but there is a procedure for the A6 on audiworld.

I have some of the tools that you would need, you would need the cam locking device or whatever might be used for that. I live in the Chicagoland too and have found Laurel Audi in Westmont to be totally incompetent to the point that I'm back to doing my own repairs after bringing it to them 3 times.

They'd probably want to charge you over $1000 I'm sure.

Parts for your car are probably $300.

Whoa! That's a major job if you're not mechanically inclined.

Agreed, but if you are mechically inclined, you can do it.
