Default Update on my S4......

Well spoke to the $ervice Advisor(haha yeah right) and well we found out something. The car only has 1st gear. DOH! Damn I told them that a week ago when I dropped it off. Oh well whaddya expect form an Audi dealer....... Crap now its going to be at least another week in this damn Cadillac....I hate it! An F -18 tried to land on me the other day. I think it mistook this big white road-born obstacle for an aircraft carrier. And boy do I get some crazy looks from other people. What you never seen a 21 yr old drivin a Pimp Daddy Caddy?

Default Nope, in most states, you have to go through multiple attempts or time...

and THEN you serve notice that you are going to start lemon proceedings, and they get one more try to get it fixed.

At that point, you've pissed off the dealer and Audi, and you've lemoned a car that is basically irreplacable, since they are discontinued.

Audi took care of me, and I didn't need to get lawyers involved.
