Anyhow, brought my car in yesterday at 10am and it was done by 2pm. I asked about the power steering update and was told it was not applicable to my S6. Shrug.

The GOOD days are when my wife doesn't work and I can take her Q5.

Why don't you ask your dealership for a nicer loaner? I got some ****ty A4s in the past, but once I said I'd prefer something nicer, I've had a new A8 TDI each and every time.

Three times in 4 months
I've had my car in 3 times in the 4 months I've owned it. Once for tranny and steering TSBs, another time for a blown tire and dinged wheel (I had the tire/wheel warranty) and most recently for the recall. They took, 3, 2 and 6 days, respectively. I got an A4 loaner twice and an S4 (much better) this last time. The dealer is helpful and delivers a loaner as promised, but I am concerned about the out of pocket cost of future repairs given that it seems to take them forever. Is this a car that I should dump when the warranty expires? I know Audis are expensive to maintain but...I live in Central NJ. Where is the best shop for service? Am I likely to get a loaner from a dealer other than the one I bought the car from?

On a good note at least I got a Q5 loaner...on a bad note they didn't have the parts for the recall and I may not get the car back until Thursday. What is the point of making an appointment if they aren't going to have the parts to perform the service?

Had mine in yesterday for both the fuel line recall and steering. The car was there most of the day but I don't know when they actually got to it. I always check the odometer and it looks like they put just shy of 6 miles on it. I really need to get a vag com to check to see if launch control was used. I don't trust anyone.
