Default A few niggles....

Just had the S8 in to Norwich Audi today to have diagnostics run on it and quote to have a few things sorted out on it.

Why yes Mr Smith thats not a problem we can do that for you, cost to you including VAT £3048 when would you like to book it in?

Glad I have warranty.

I would tell them you'll supply your own battery - I'd be amazed if you cant get one that's suitable for between £90 and £130, even if they charge you for coding it back in lol crazy to pay £300 for a battery!

Thats what the biggest lump is out of the quote, they wanted to faff around investigating where its coming from but its pretty obvious as it appears if you jet wash the car so must be the sealant / bonding leaking.

Told them just to quote for worst case with new back window.
