Apparently someone at Audi Corporate has heard my plight and has gifted my with a minty new cluster. Got my letter yesterday and called the local dealer, giddy with excitement. I set my appointment for Thursday. Then the service adviser told me he would have to re-test the cluster before we could order the cluster. You would think the multi-month litigation and lawsuit would have shown that of course my cluster is malfunctioning you moronic pillock!!!!

Hey disagreed, but I relented. Working for VW, I understand his obligation, but come on, he could have been nice about the entire thing.

~Still, in the end, I wound up not having to pay for a thousand dollar cluster, so it's all good!!!!

 

I think I will pick up a set of these rather than pay for a cluster, WOOT!!!

Brakes, yummmmm:

The terms of the Settlement Agreement allowed for the dealer to test the cluster.

The questiion is: who is paying for the diagnostic? Don't they usually charge around $125?

 

I didn't see that part, anyway, it's failed. I am still blissfully happy!

 

Hooray for Failure!

 

Well, it's not like my cluster is not broken. I am not sure if it is a failure on my part for not reading or for Audi failing to make a good cluster.

 

i dont think you have to pay the 125 for anything depending on what your letter states...mine says one free replacement im not paying crap from them to tell me what i already know

 

From the settlement agreement:

 

Well, all is good in TT land. Stopped by and the local dealer ordered the cluster and it should be in by Wednesday of next week!

I am very happy to have a working speedo and central display again.

 

My cluster was bad the day I bought my car. I took it to Rusnak Audi in Pasadena and it was promptly replaced without any fuss. I had no idea about the class-action. I was just happy that the unit was under warranty.
