I got backed into this morning by someone stealing a big maintenance vehicle and I’m fine, and that’s great, but I’M SO SAD. I know it’s just a car, but damn. Anyway, I figured if any people would understand, it would be this crowd.
I was driving to a charger. I was 1.8 mi away. Ran out of battery. Went onto the shoulder called a tow truck. Waited 30-45 minutes. Tow truck driver started winching it with the lower control arms cuz I didn't have the little tow key thing. Not sure if he messed something up but when I turned the car back on to get it into neutral it said I had 5 mi left so I attempted to drive it but I only made it a few hundred yards so we towed it the remainder of the way to the charger. I charged up the car and when I was leaving I get the warning lights for the air suspension and my butt was high up in the air and my nose was way too far low. I could tell, I tried getting out of the car locking it letting it sit for a bit. Ended up having to leave it at a casino and I will pray that something fixes itself overnight and it just had to do with draining the battery so low. Any thoughts?!
Noticed a few days ago a weird smell from my 2023 etron Chronos in the garage. Pinpointed it coming from my passenger rear wheel area. Thought it was a stuck brake caliper but got under the car and found a brownish sludge on the rear motor assembly heating up and causing the smell. I am guessing this is the coolant leak issue? And only fix is an entire rear motor replacement?
Just had it in for 50K service in June. They said no issues. I am at 51K now, but do have the letter that motor warranty is extended. How much pain am I going to be in with this? Is Audi taking care of it fully under warranty recently? How long will I be out of a car (taking it in tomorrow buy Audi dealership says they have no loaners left).
Got rear-ended and pushed into the car in front of me. Luckily no injuries but looks like a 50k damage at least.
It were 14 great months but now we will have to separate.
Is the process to replace a 22 E-tron’s brake pads the same as other Audis? Is it a big risk to get done a reputable local shop?
Now that the weather is cooler and my sunroof/windows are open, my squeaky brakes are starting to annoy me again.
I‘m finally going to get ceramic pads, but I don't want to pay dealer prices. A poplar local indy Audi shop quoted $435, which didn’t seem exorbitant but still high. Theres a small shop on my block that works on a lot of Eruo cars, that I think would be cheaper.
I’m pretty strict about getting invasive service done only at the dealer, but with breaks I’d rather save money if it’s a pretty standard job.
I love my car and have had mostly good experiences with Audi, but I do think it‘s unacceptable for any modern car to have squeaky brakes from the dealer and this really should be on Audi to fix.
The used price I paid vs original MSRP does take some of the sting out of it.
A common complaint I see on here is the sunroof leaking, so I figured I’d share my experience. Had water enter the cabin due to a failure on the wind guard in my sunroof. Just my luck, I was 700 miles out of the factory extended warranty so I had to pay $1,300 to have the wind guard replaced along with having the drains serviced. Overall it was stressful but it can be remedied!
Hi all, I tried searching and didn’t find anything about the new issue I’m having. I think this “might be” a thermal warning light but I’m not sure. Has anyone else had this experience?
