2.5 weeks, still no car.

Still sitting at the dealer w/ little movement due to scheduling issues. They haven't actually touched the car in over a week.

I'm re-thinking the Audi purchase. Loved the car for the one week I got to drive it out of the 3.5 I have owned it.

Anyone interested in a fully rebuilt allroad w/ 36k on the clicker. I think I'll go back to cars from the 1970s that you can rebuild the whole car from the ground up in 2.5 weeks.... then again, that assumes you are actually working on the car.

I had a similar experience, you'll get it back and fall in love again--and then find out the

dealer didn't fix half the stuff they should have. You may fantasize about throwing future broken parts through the dealer's showroom glass. But still you'll be in love.

There is a problem with Audi dealers. Lack of competition is a large part of part of it. One step toward a solution would be to allow VW dealers to service Audi as well.

Mine was in a lot the first 4 months of ownership, having unseen lease abuse fixed..

got a new cylinder head, new shifter assembly, new gas tank, new radio, new info display, new gate/interior alarm buttons, new window switches drivers side, new wiper pump, new engine cover, new rear headrest, new coolant bottle, doors tightened, rear gate tightened, glove compartment tightened. Paid nothing. It took time, but the car's in great shape. And I love it.
