2001 Audi A6 2.7 t Quattro review from North America

"Very bad experience with a Audi"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Less than 24 hours after I bought this car my check engine light came on. I called the dealership I bought it at and was asked if I had "checked the engine".

This was just the first of many things to go wrong. I have owned this car for 7 months and it is in the shop more than out of it.

So far my turbos have gone out, window motors have gone out, my ball joints need to be replaced, the check engine light has came back on (but I was told that it had to come on again before they could replace the part that caused it to come on).

My car is now back at the dealership after it failed to start leaving my husband stranded nearly a hour and a half away.

This is the second time this has happened. The last time it had to be towed in for this problem I was told that it was a "brain fart" and they have never seen it happen before.

General comments?

I do have to admit that I love the way this car handles and all the options it comes with.

However I am very sick of it always being in the shop.

I have complained to Audi and never gotten a response. A call would at least be nice.

I will never buy a Audi again. The mechanical problems far outweigh the luxury options that I like so much.

For what I payed for this car I never would have believed that there customer service would be this bad.
