Default Yup - some of them having issues as well - the kicker for them is that Audi only warranted the RS4

DRC for 12 mos/12k I believe - ouch. Gee, do ya think they knew that they had an issue with DRC? They are toads. Glad I bailed out of DRC when I did.

Default That's right. I recall the 12 month warranty now. I'll repeat my last post down one thread: ABSURD!

Coilovers I guess are only sure way to go when DRC fails.

Default Yeah, like second generation siblings reproducing. Still "not right".

The first RS4 that showed up for display at a local dealer started leaking DRC fluid on the showroom floor within two weeks with no driving! It took at least 6 months and many tries to finally get it "fixed" to sell.
