  1. I've been on the thread for the juddering and hesitation issue My car was bought brand new 2018 black ed (68 reg) and was OK for couple of months, then 4 months in car starts shaking violently at a red light. After multiple times back n forth to the dealership they finally found my issue but no fault code to learn how to fix. Last month may 2022 car cam up with multiple amber warnings (electrical fault, air suspension fault,suspension fault, electronic handbrake fault) so I though I'll call the dealership in the morning. Next day driving kids to school all fault lights started pinging red. So paid recovery to garage (not audi but to someone I trust) 48v hybrid battery done so replaced then fitted but something was draining it so much. Fault now dc convertor which I don't know will fix the issue. Final stage of motor ombusman which upheld in my favour only dealership has contested this. Anyone got any further forward with their dodgy q7
  2. Absolutely 💯 Car has been in the garage for last 3 weeks and something has been draining the 48v hybrid battery to the point its done. Replaced that and also to say its the under lying problem which is causing this. Audi have a big fight on their hands
  3. Just scrolling and I'm in despute with swansway garages too (not stoke) unfortunately these people don't care just want your hard earned money. Mines was brand new has had numerous issues but even with 2 local audi dealerships agreeing there is an issue they seem to think its fine. Motor ombusman have favoured me in the first case but they are contesting it. Plus the amount of lies its unreal. Hope you gilet it sorted
  4. I know I've not updated on here in a while. Still got the q7 still no further forward. The Motor ombusman gave the dealership the option to offer me a like for like or a reimbursement less usage but challenged them. So 4th year into my pcp car is now In garage after the multiple warning lights coming on. (electrical, suspension, air suspension, handvrake, start stop you name it it came up) The next day all amber lights went tk red and with no warning car engine cut out (just glad I had nobody behind me or it could of been nasty) car recovered to the garage Took to an audi "specialist" and they were unsure what could be causing either th 48v hybrid battery, 12v smaller battery or the alternator. Called the dealership (which is 3 hrs away) no empathy or any desire to help. The response I received was you've had the car for 3½ years to which I replied "yes 3½ ice been trying for you to do something about it. Absolutely shocking customer service. It's now with the final decision with the motor ombudsman and hopefully have this death trap situation sorted once and for all .
  5. Exactly it would interesting to start this as I'm feeling so angry as I'm 100% certain like you say dont want to sell out thousands Best way to get in contact with citizens advice. I'm in Scotland so what would be the best way to go forward and how many ppl would be willing to do the same
  6. That's sounds oh so familiar 😔 when braking does your car stutter until it finally brakes? Lack of power, car has sounded like its cut out on new whilst going down hill and cut out at a roundabout no warning light nothing. Since my car has had all available software updates audi uk are not willing to do anything about it. I contacted citizens advice and I'm now in the process of sending them one final letter before it goes further. They know the problems are there and not willing to do a thing about it as it will cost them financially. Legally they have only so many attempts to fix the same problem as it's clearly not fit for purpose and dangerous. These comments by all you guys have been quoted by vw finance as bish Bosh seruously!!! The dealership, audi uk and finance arent interested we shall see when I send this letter is sent if they will take notice of it.
  7. Even when they have the software update how confident do you feel driving. So far its cut out on me twice Audi uk are a joke and so are the dealerships to be honest. If this doesn't get dealt with soon someone is going to have an accident and it will be on their heads. I have now issued the finance with a letter for to take the matter further and if need be court action. Def speak to your finance (mines is vw) but dont hold your hopes up I wasted 3 months of my time and I was always calling them. Once you go through the process with them its then onto the financial ombusman to take it further. Feel free to message me if you want
  8. Hi simon did you get your car rejected
  9. I have contacted cab and they advised me to write a letter to the dealership but I got nowhere with that so not sure what to do I do have sufficient evidence to prove the problem
  10. Hey guys quick update on my car it should I say a wasted year of my life chasing round in circles. Today audi who may I add I have to call chase them up have said their doing no more even though I have substantial evidence from the dealership their is clearly an issue. Now it's time to take this to the next level anyone having issues they wont be solved as Audi dont know how to fix it and refuse to admit there is a problem and call this forum bish Bosh (more like hes talking pish pish. In now taking it to the financial and motor ombusman. Also watchdog will have an email as well. Anyone had their car successfully rejected for these issues ?
  11. I will check this when it comes back and let you know but in all honesty I told him it was crap
  12. I have taken my car to another audi centre where again another technician has felt the juddering this time whilst breaking. I'm now being told this is a characteristic of the car and not a fault, even when the technician said there was an issue. I feel like audi are hiding something here and not willing to admit there is a problem
  13. I think given the details everyone has shared on here about their q7 having all having similar issues surely audi who are aware of these issues should be saying when purchasing the vehicle initially
  14. Sounds like audi know the problem is there and not being very forthcoming to let anyone reject their vehicle. I have to book the car in for a full diagnostic before they can start the process. Keep us up to date with your results
  15. I've called audi uk been advised to call audi finance to reject the vehicle. To be then told by audi finance to contact my local Audi dealership. I'll be contacting citizens advice to place this case with them also Thanks for the reply
