I have yet to receive any response to my request for service lodged on 4 august 2010.as promised, i have provided to my dealership here in alaska.i am very disappointed once again in your lack of attention.i'm now going to the following site to post this complaint so others may be forewarned at the lack of service.https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ivoq/complaint.cfmmy message from 4 aug 2010 that went un-addressed:i am very disappointed in the way audi is handling the injector and misfire on my 08 rs4.i have had several audi's and you have now put my dealer in a position of not addressing the real issue on the poor running of my audi.i've taken my car in several times for a check engine light warning.diagnostics revealed misfiring on several cylinders but rather than address the problem with replacement of the injectors or a thorough cleaning/inspection of the valves, i've been sent away with what amounts to an engine treatment solution.you have not allowed morrison auto group mechanics to properly investigate and cure the problem.you have rather chosen to take progressively futile attempts to placate me and the issue costing me time and money.by not allowing the dealer to take the necessary corrective actions, you now threaten to ruin what was once a good relationship.i demand that the fuel injection and misfire problem with my 2008 audi be corrected while still under warranty.further, i recommend that you authorize morrison auto group mechanics to make the necessary diagnosis, and to effect repairs at once.audi of north america business model for service has soured me on the brand and will weigh heavily in my future plans for purchase of another car.very disappointed, vocal, and connected with many car/motorcycling enthusiasts via blogs and web sites.i promise you i will follow through if audi doesn't.i have saved a copy of this message and will provide to my dealer and associates along with any response from audi north america.
Audi rs4 suspension components fail prematurely and can cause handling/control issues.after searching online, it appears to be a well documented problem without an official recall.audi rs4 suspension includes a component called drc (dynamic ride control) which has an oil-filled bushing on top of the shock strut.this component fails regularly and leaks oil down the strut (sometimes pooling on the ground as in my case).the failure can affect handling and ride quality of the vehicle.
I drive a 2008 audi rs4, and my mph and odometer readings are 10-12% higher than actuals. I have verified this several ways. Using police radar vehicles, using gps, and using other cars to pace, as well as using the speed check systems. All of them show i am driving slower than the actual displayed value by a significant amount. This causes a few issues. First i am racking up miles on the car that are not actual, affecting the value. Second i am being put out of vehicle warranty 10-12% earlier than i would have otherwise, a boon for audi. Third i am not traveling speeds i say i am, which could cause safety issues.i am not the only rs4 owner who has noticed this issue, it has been reported by several owners now and audi has yet to do anything. Also i am concerned i will be forced out of warranty on my vehicle earlier than i paid for, because of this. 12% of the 48k miles is nearly 6 months of driving. The 2007 and 2008 audi rs4 appear to be the affected vehicle from audi.
