I'm going to keep driving for a Z4 at the dealership if they get get me the price I want on it. As of now I have an appointment March 3rd to have the check engine light serviced. My biggest issue above all things is the audi dealer is NEVER open when I'm free. I'm a business man 8 am - 5 pm doesn't work for me thats when im making money to buy these kinds of toys...I think its silly for the dealerships and service departments to close at 5 Its just bad policy.

The BMW dealership is open till atleast 6PM and have always been a MUCH better company to deal with services wise.

idk... im gonna see... im just bummed.

Sorry to hear, like was said earlier, it seems that either you get a great car or one with all the problems. Could hold out go for the new RS6 that is comming out, I hear its one hell of a grocery getter...

why dont you just unplug the battery for ten minutes? not that hard and if it comes back the find someone to vag it for you. You really dont need a dealer for this.

Nope just un plug, let sit for 10-15min and plug back in, rememer to have your radio code if you have the stock radio still, or hell it can be something like the MAF just needs to be cleaned or even replaced, bad gas, gas cap not on tight enough. There are so many little things that I check over before I take it into the dealership, is there anything wrong when you drive it?
