I'm sorry, it looks like your dealer sucks rocks. Some are great,
some are not. I like mine very much and would actually consider
buying a car from them (I bought mine from my sister) now that I've
had some time to deal with them and feel they're not out to rip me
off. They're very service oriented and willing to discuss problems
and solutions.

well, you are right. the whole of the vancouver area has 3 audi
dealers only. the lower mainland is it is called is quite out.
so firstly it takes time to get to one. secondly the wait to get in
for a service is unacceptably long.thirdly, it is almost impossible to
get a loaner vehicle while your car is tied up.
i have tried two of the three dealers. will contact no. 3 tommorow and
see how that goes.
cheers
