HI EVERYONE! I'm new to the forum, probably won't be here too much but I came here today to look for info on the (seemingly) infamously problematic ABS modules, as I'm considering buying a good deal used A6 that seems to have this issue. I came across someone else griping about

AUTO & TRUCK ELECTRONICS. HEED THIS WARNING TOO- DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE A**HOLES!

A couple of years ago my now ex-wife had this issue with her 2000 S4- Dealer cost for the new ABS module was some gag-inducing amount north of $1000.00 or so, if I'm not mistaken. She (at my suggestion) decided to use AUTO & TRUCK ELECTRONICS for a rebuild, which at that time I believe was around $250.00.

SHE HAD TO HAVE THIS ABS MODULE R&R'D THREE (3) TIMES!!!!!!! Because AUTO & TRUCK ELECTRONICS DID NOT REPAIR IT PROPERLY, AND THEN THEY NEVER GAVE A REFUND, NEVER ANSWERED EMAILS ETC. She ended up bending over to pay dealer cost for a new one. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH AUTO & TRUCK ELECTRONICS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!!!!!!!

If there was a way I could actively put them out of business, I would do it, so incredibly CRAPTASTIC was the experience we had with them.

Other'n that, y'all take care and talk to you again!! Cheers!

this post seems kind of weird, as if this man is working for the company who competes with Auto & Truck electronics. but he could be telling the truth. i just find it kinda wierd anyone else? i mean hes a newbie, he has one post and he said he probally wont return to post on the site ???

 

ok- maybe I'll be back frequently, since I get alerts when someone responds....i'm not too up on forum protocol, don't really participate in these forums too much, maybe I came across as a bit rabid about AUTO & TRUCK ELECTRONICS SUCKING HARD. Guess it was pent up frustration that I never released a couple yrs back, no I have no connection whatsoever with any other business in the automotive world, Audi related or non, I just got so pissed off at how rotten this company was to deal with- the frustration & $$$$$ wasted due to their ineptitude was one thing, then to be left hanging where there was never a refund issued- made my head just about pop off. I'm still pissed, obviously- I just wanted to do my part to warn off anyone who might consider using them to (not) rebuild their ABS module. By the way- I checked out a number of places, and if I do decide to buy this used A6, I'll have to deal with the issue. ModuleMaster looks pretty aboveboard- anyone have any input on them? I like their little "how to" video on switching out the piece as well as all the other details on the site. Thanks in advance- peace
