LMAO!
Audi has such a terrible record with customer service and denying
warranty claims.  I've personally been a victim of these tactics a few
times ('00 A8 and '00 S4).  I love the product but like many others
will never buy another (new) Audi.  I'm told Audi has a department in
place now to try to get back some of these lost sales.  Yet the damage
is done and Audi NA lost market share after record climbs.  Someone at
Audi apparently felt they could do no wrong (after all, 30% increases
in sales volume year to year were impressive), but they lost a LOT of
core Audi supports (ACCNA club members) because of thier practice of
denying warranty claims.  And I've made this determination from
personal experience(s) and people I've personally had discussions
with.
