craigyb Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Anyone else see Audi on watchdog getting a slating for POD failures in TT's. Dealers were denying all knowledge of the problem , but one did admit they had seen several faulty TT pods. http://www.bbc.co.uk/watchdog/reports/transport/transport_20060124.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson_R32 Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 [ QUOTE ] Audi's company slogan Vorsprung Durch Technik means 'advantage through technology' [/ QUOTE ] Nice to see how they twisted the translation to suit there little 'pun' (!!)

Nelson_R32 Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Also, while we're on the subject... [ QUOTE ] It has now agreed to replace units that are out of warranty on cars up to five years old, completely free, on what it calls a 'case-by-case' basis. [/ QUOTE ] What Audi have actually said is that it will replace Dash's FOC IF the part becomes faulty. Not just for the sake of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 If only it was that clear cut. Many owners with cars over 5 years old and failed pods aren't getting any refunds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenocidalDuck Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 I think they are only fixing cars that are 5 years old or less. Not sure exactly. the tt forum organised this so you may get a better answer from them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 When? If it's the Indy Circuit then no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson_R32 Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Only ever done the Indie Circuit before but always wanted to do the full Circuit. I think its a bit of a con that they charge double the price when other tracks offer the same length for the same price as the Indie track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
