| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: After speaking to the dealer who was prompt and helpful, and after investigating on some audi forums on the internet, it seems these coils are very failure prone. they can fail anywhere at any time, and at low mileage. in my case it wasn't a matter of saftey, but of dependability. this is a $36,000 "near luxury" car that really can't be trusted, and may fail anywhere at any time. the dealer installed a new coil, but it is the same part number and manufacturer. (bosch) would be nice if a new (revised) part was issued, and all 6 coils were replaced. thank you. dt |
