[200q20v] Problems again

[-J J-]

I am going to talk to the dealer on monday I hope. It is a 45 minute drive 
away, so all communication has been over the phone, with a 'service rep' who 
does not know much about the specifics of car repair, especially for 200 
20v's all she says is what the mechs report to her. A pretty much excat 
quote from her was "The car is smoking so badly that we cannot legally work 
on it, and the reason for this is because it has no catalytic converters, if 
we work on it we will lose our permit. The fumes made several of our workers 
ill"
Since I havent talked to anyone who actually worked on the car, I am a bit 
unclear on whether this is exactly the problem. I am very disappointed that 
they woll not even offer any help in this matter. Hopefully when I come in I 
will be able to clear things up, otherwise I will contact AoA. I do not know 
the legality of driving without cats, I have never seriously considered not 
having them, so I have not checked. Does anyone know the law in Michigan (it 
would be hard to enforce since there are no emission checks). No clue on the 
codes since I have not talked with a mech, as I said.



                                   Hoping for an Audi before too long,
              John
