5to1 Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 Does anyone have email or other contact details for Audi customer services. I'm having problems getting Lamborghini to replace my manuals with the correct language versions (English), give me my airbag keys, and address some other complaints. After a "promising" start (by this I mean I got some responses) they aren't even bothering to acknowledge my correspondence. I figure firing cc's of my emails to Audi can't hurt. But if I use a generic email address, I'll probably get a standar BS reply. Thanks in advance for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dan Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 I think you'll find that thay are completly independant. Probably better to copy in VW Group head office in Germany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted February 21, 2005 Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 [email protected] - Audi UK director (I think its still him) [email protected] - VW UK Director You could also try: [email protected] Who is chairman of the lamborghini club in the UK, supposed to be an excellent club so they should have contacts for you. Cant imagien either of the UK directors being much help as I would expect them to have a 'not my brand' attitude - lets face it they cant be bothered half the time to deal with their own dealerships, so I cant imagien them wanting problems with someone elses.

5to1 Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 Thanks for the responses. I know its a long shot but it may give some one a kick up the ass. I believe Audi did do some of the quality control for atleast the early cars. So there is some cross-over. Considering I also didn't get the Airbag keys, I'm guessing I've got a reasonable position to argue from. Not sure if its legal to sell a car without providing the airbag keys. Atleast the cars been great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted February 22, 2005 Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 5, Noticed your Gallardo in the gallery a while back. Lovely! In my experience, VAG Customer Service don't like to cross borders and Audi Germany simply refer you to Audi UK for example. I ended up getting a letter from the same person I got annoyed with at Audi UK having complained to Germany. Is your dealer not being helpful in getting you contacts? When are we going to be seeing you at a meet? I think we'd all like to see the Gallardo head-to-head with Lagoo's GT2!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5to1 Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2005 As well as the manual issue, I had a few other problems with the dealer. So I complained to Lambo and asked them to get everything rectified (since it was a main dealer). GT2, bring it on. Atleast untill it stops snowing and raining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is EU law that everything must come with instructions nowadays. I should pop back to the dealer and inform them that without these necessary parts the car is not of merchantable quality and you would therefore appreciate your money back in full please. That might light a fire under them! I find it beyond amazing that you can buy a car of this quality and price and not have everything absolutely 100% frankly.
