  1. I emailed Audi UK to ask if they could provide me with the service schedule/intervals. After some back and forth I have been told that Audi UK don't have that information and it sits with the dealerships... I find it laughable that the manufacturer would try have me believe they don't know the service intervals of their own cars. It feels like they want to make it as hard as possible for owners to have their cars serviced outside of the dealership network. It does nothing positive for my thoughts about owning another Audi in the future. After previously owning a BMW for which the service plan covered all service items I am not a fan of Audi's service plan not even covering brake fluids neither.
  2. Hello. I have a 2017 Audi A4 2.0 petrol automatic (A4 S LINE TFSI S-A). I am looking for a schedule that outlines the various service items and intervals for my car but after googling and speaking to the service center at my local dealer I am struggling to understand exactly what service items are due and when. Does anyone on here know if there is a service schedule for the A4 specifically, rather than a generic audi fleet one? Thank you Martin
  3. I have been to Audi Newcastle this morning and picked up the new sensor, part 5Q0906207B. I have fitted it and both the restricted servo and start/stop dash warnings have gone. I haven't had a chance to drive the car since but fingers crossed my issue is now resolved. Whilst speaking to the guy who works in the dealership Parts department he said they keep stock of the sensors and are selling multiple units a month. He even said he recognised the part number when I quoted it over the phone and instantly knew which part it was which is a statement in itself. He said it is a known issue but not considered common. If each dealership is selling multiple units a month on cars that are still relatively young, and especially considering the cost of ABS repairs if not resolved swiftly, I would say that is a common issue that needs more attention from Audi. The guy also said they have a car in their shop at the moment getting the ABS repairs as the car was driven after the initial restricted servo warning came on. So that is another fellow Audi driver who is about to take a large hit to their wallet for an avoidable problem. Shame on Audi!
  4. Thankfully I can work from home so my intention is to leave the car on the drive until I can get my hands on a replacement sensor. Hopefully a new sensor clears the dash warnings but if not I'll book it in at the garage.
  5. I have a 2017 A4 saloon 2.0 petrol. The brake servo restricted light came on 2 days ago but I didnt get around to researching it until today as I felt secure with the dashboard message saying it is ok to continue driving. Turns out that is a false sense of security and I wish I had looked up the issue earlier but I'm hopeful that I can still get away with the simple sensor replacement. After ringing around the 3 local dealerships in my area one said another has stock (same company with multiple dealserships) but annoyingly the parts department at that dealership haven't been answering my calls all day! It sounds like the part number has recently been updated to have a B at the end rather than the A I had seen on earlier threads. I believe the part number for the sensor is now 5Q0906207B. I will try contacting the dealership again tomorrow. Fingers are crossed... This is my first Audi and I am very disappointed that it feels like Audi have their eyes closed (deliberately or not) to a simple and cheap fix that could save owners £ thousands. At less than 4 years old I had no dreamt that I could be on the line for such a costly repair, made only worse when I read how common this fault appears to be.
