Serious answer: I already have my S6. I'm not considering not driving it. If I was still looking at one, it would not deter me in the slightest. This is, by far, the best car I've ever owned. I absolutely love driving it. If there were reports of it transmitting gonorrhea, I'd get a shot of penicillin and keep on truckin'.

Started my 2013 Estoril Blue this morning in my garage, took a while to turn over (unusual), then after the car started, a VERY strong scent of gas. Turned off the car immediately, and looked around the car. There was a puddle of gas beneath my car. I called Audi roadside assistance and having it towed to the dealer.
I have about 12000 miles on my S6, which I bought last November. So glad the leak didn't happen with my infant daughter in the car while the engine was hot. This is my wife's daily driver, and needless to say she wants to get rid of the car ASAP.
So I guess that makes it 7 known 2013 cases?

From China recall article. Recall has also been issued in Australia and Canada. US owners will be getting letters in the near future.

For whatever it's worth....In addition to the China recall letter, I received confirmation from my dealer that this is actually the case. On that basis, after considerable thought, I have decided to proceed with my S6 order.

Last week I called my dealer. They checked my VIN # and said my car is not one with the fuel line problem. I took delivery of my car a year ago September. It was built in August 2012. I hope they're right.
