Hi all,

On my fourth Audi and concerned that they 'don't make em like they used to !'

- My Oil pump has just gone in my '55 plate' A4 at about 97,000 miles and I now know of another 6 that have gone at a similar time in various Passat's & Audi's with this 2.0ltr TDI Engine.

Unfortunately, my local Audi dealaship have informed the that the parts alone will cost nearly 9k & so effectively the car is a right off with no residual value & no recompence to my Insurance.

- Just wondered if any other forum members have suffered the same problem so that I can gauge the scale of this problem and if any one has any idea's of the best way to get the car back on the road ASAP.

Apparently it needs a new engine, turbo & exhaust system as a minimum !!
