    My support is added and i have been in Audi dealers since 1992.
    I find some forum members ignorant to the good work that the dealers do and the warranty systems and good will we offer.I have helped many people on this site with my inside knowledge and personal experience which cant be bought or trained into people.This site supports excellent indie technicians and many master technicians that forum members would not normally get to speak to.Not forgetting there are sites on the net that charge for technical fixes and they aren't very good.Dealers are under a lot of pressure to achieve customer satisfaction and if you compare Lexus to Audi then think about this Audi sold more cars in the first quarter of the year than Lexus sell in a full year so they have less complaints as they have less models and less dealers to focus on.My job as a master technician would boggle most people and i have seen massive changes since 1992 and customer expectation is so high and also people have less patience but i expect that and that's why the dealers some times don't deliver as some none technical staff forget that they should be proud to work for the brand and deliver the best experience to the customer.

    As for feedback
    I have represented unnamed forum members for there issues with Audi uk to resolve the problems and i wont post my dealer location as its a private thing and Audi do watch the sites and act on growing issues ie q7 tyre wear and tt dash clocks rs6 drc.

    Agreed with all that's been said so far.

    Why should legitimate businesses with (as people have said) huge overheads, be tarred with criminals?

    We all have an option whether or not to use dealers, and whilst I use independents for most things, whenever I've used the dealers, I've been always treated courteously, and the prices for the parts I've needed have not been exorbitant.

    Also resent the use of the term '*********'. Again if you don't like their prices, vote with your feet. For many people they are convenient and easy to use, and while they don't claim to be the last word on everything, if you need an oil filter on a Sunday, where else is there to go?

    Rant over

    God, that's made me feel better
    Nothing to see here, move along..

    I agree, I was going to mention that but I thought my rant had gone on long enough. I use them every now and again; their Plastic Primer is excellent, especially for my model making.

    The pedantic legal person in me would just like to say the following.

    Slander - Harmful statements in spoken form (or otherwise)

    Libel - Harmful statements made in a fixed medium (writing, signage, etc)

    It's offensive however you dress it up, but it's libellous, not slanderous

    /pedant out.

    Thread stuck too


    Considering selling my VCDS KEY-USB interface. If you're interested please contact me via PM or email.

    I like to think that I have pointed out the good and the bad in my posts without using any defamatory statements.
