I bought an A2 in March and since then have experienced EPC and engine warning lights intermittently appearing. The car seems to run ok, I can only assume that something has gone very slightly out of tolerance or the that the fault warning system has a fault itself. This is of course disconcerting as you continually worry that something's going to stop.
The locking system stopped working. You can only lock the front doors with the remote, you have lock the back doors with the switch on the drivers door first. The lights don't flash when you lock any more. Second key doesn't work. Quoted £411 to fix.
Water pumps gone - quoted £658 to replace inc. cambelt.
The anti roll bar is worn - quoted £318 to replace.
I had a service (special offer half price at Amersham Audi £170). I didn't realise that service means oil change. I thought it at least would include minor work such as greasing door hinges.
Honestly the car's too expensive to maintain.
Its the first German car I've had and all the hype about reliability is just not true.
Somebody tell me I didn't make a mistake.
Sorry just venting off.
