Engine rear bracket bolt broken
I was driving home on friday night and heard a loud bang. After that, the power in my TT drained and i literally crawled home at around 20mph
I called Audi roadside assistance and one of their guys came out to check my car.
He said the loud bang was the bolt snapping in half, that holds the engine to the rear bracket of the subframe
This in turn caused the engine to damage the gear box and move onto the air con fan at the front
I have spoken to my dealer, Beechwood Audi and they have not been ver helpful
My car went back to Beechwood a few months ago for a minor recall on the engine. I can only guess that the bolt was over tightened during this visit
Am i within my rights to complain about this ?
