Not long after buying car, had to have driver seat replaced due to excessive movement. Replaced again 2 years later due to same problem (warranty).
Returned car to garage due to squeaking windows. Door adjustment fixed problem.
Car wouldn't start due to immobiliser not recognising key. Ignition barrel replaced, but problem still returns intermittently (warranty).
Knocking noise from steering resulted in replacement steering rack and universal joint (£1300).
On board computer reset button stopped working. Garage replaced dashboard cluster to rectify (£130, Audi UK paid 70%).
Car now back in garage because air bag warning light is on continuously.
Gear stick shakes when accelerating in 1st gear. Garage has been unable to repair.
Still on first set of tyres and bulbs after > 33000 miles.
Car handles very well.
Performance is great.
Don't rate Audi Service.
I ve recently brought a Audi A3 2000 w redge, 1800 SE, Automatic mileage at 26000 on purchase 11 months ago.
Now the car was running brilliantly as you would expect with Audi' extremely positive drive.
I took the car for service at a local London Audi' dealer, afterwards it was running fine, but every day when I move the car in the morning there is oil drops on my driveway about 10 drops per day.
I told the Audi dealer they did check it, but could not find anything wrong, now my argument is that this was not a pre existing condition! But they don't want to know!
Please advise.
