ian.f Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Concurring with the above posts. I’m astounded at Audi’s behaviour completely through the ownership of my A4. It cost me £16,000 in 2019. I’ve had so many issues with it, like this ABS issue, ECU failures, I think I’ve replaced every sensor under the bonnet, AdBlue sensor failure, etc, etc. I’ve spent £9k to date and I’m currently looking at another £1.2k on having to drop the gearbox out to disassemble it to get at, wait for it, another sensor! Audi have refused to acknowledge any inherent issues with the B9. All they say is “book it in for a diagnostic” then quote me crazy prices to fix things I can do myself or others can do at half the cost. This was my first Audi, and will be my last VAG vehicle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kh904 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Ouch! You've had particular bad luck with your A4! Mine hasn't been too bad in terms of non-wear and tear repairs, but then again i don't do many miles (around 3k a year)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkH13 Posted Monday at 06:04 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:04 PM 2017 RS5, and had the dreaded brake servo and stop/start warning messages this afternoon... Luckily my car has an extended warranty, so I've called Audi Assist, and someone is on their way - hopefully they'll be able to fit the sensor, and there will be no damage to my ABS! 🙏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kh904 Posted Monday at 06:12 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:12 PM I'm sure you will be okay since you've called Audi Assist as soon as you got the message (assuming you haven't done many miles and hard braking since). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkH13 Posted Monday at 06:17 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:17 PM Thank you, I do hope so 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3N Posted Monday at 07:02 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:02 PM (edited) Good luck Mark. Let us know so we can enjoy the relief. I heard that Audi Assist carry this particular part as standard practice now. Very telling that 🙄 Edited Monday at 07:03 PM by P3N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkH13 Posted Monday at 07:06 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:06 PM Thank you very much - unfortunately it wasn't as simple as I hoped, the diagnostics came back with a bunch of errors (including ABS!) so they're having to take the car to Audi to get it all checked out... A bit frustrating, but at least Audi Assist provides a courtesy car, which I didn't know, so I'll still be mobile 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
