Why can't the affected UK owners leverage their voices in the same way the US would? The US owners always get a better deal, Audi is quick to avoid going to court there. My mechanic was telling me the reason you have to have your foot on the brake to start the car is because in the US, some clowns were claiming they left it in gear and turned the ignition (Audi 5000 IIRC), causing the car to exit the garage in the wrong direction - via a wall.

Audi claimed user error but, Audi lost.

So Audi adopted the solution we all have to use now.

Doesn't seem fair that a known fault is remediated in one country but left to bankrupt owners in another, M'lud.
