Is the dealer completely mental?
It's been about 6 weeks since I bought my '01t Sport Package, and the little stuff is al done: driver's door handle, headlight washer pump / nozzle / cap, central locking, turn signal, wind-screen chip repair.
Now I want to do the driver's side front lower seat cover, so I called the dealer.
8D0881405: Ecru leatherette sport seat cover. $325 for the part, $345 for the labour. Or roughly 10% to 15% of the car's value . . . for a seat cover.
I can get it done by a local shop in a pretty close match for maybe $125.
Do Audi not realise how they repel and anger customers when they price themselves out of the market on niggling little stuff like this?
