Bet that's made his day lol :aargh4:
Heard similar thing on the Bi turbo hence went for the 272��.
It's all under warranty for the 3 years I'll be keeping it anyway. Have never had a problem with Audi warranty, most in part down to my local dealer.
A lot of failures with the 272 and BiTDI? First I’ve heard of it :confused:
Do you guys mean the 2.0 ultra/s-tronic?
I think a definition of "a lot" is required. I have only heard or researched 2 instances, so to be honest I wouldn't be panicking over it. Anyone got any positive feedback on my chosen model?
Well I will be positive, my wife has a 2014 s-line ultra S-tropic and she loves it. If only we pushed for a 3.0 Quattro, so in summary you've picked a cracking spec.
My mate has a 2012 SE 245 Quattro and he loves it, creamy engine.

I have a 272 Quattro black edition saloon arriving next week hopefully. It was build week 7 so should be here very shortly. Very much looking forward to replacing my current 5 series.
would have went for the bitdi however the 272 was pretty much the best I could get from our car list.
I've got build week 13, so hopefully might be a bit before end of May. I would be grateful if you post a picture when you collect.:D
Were these two failures on the 272ps or 190ps Ultra?Quote:

The engine was cracking and very refined, yet the power delivery was incredible especially in dynamic mode. The S Tronic was nicely paired to the engine, although I found that it was greatly if not aggressively responsive in Dynamic mode and a touch lazy in comfort mode. In essence it was a good balance and did exactly as it should. Whether you want to own the road or just blend in, it does it all with ease. The gear changes were effortless and you didn't feel them in general. I hope it doesn't prove to be unreliable.
I was running around 28 Mpg around town but the engine only had 2000 miles on it.
I posted some pics of the A7 on the A7 forum as it was the facelift model. I enjoyed using the indicators just for the hell of it. The A6 is a beautiful car, and having owned the C7 (177 2.0 Multi) in the past, it was brief but was worth every minute. Enjoy the car!
