Sounds a little non committed.... I'm sure you'll tread carefully.

Genuinely curious what the issue is. I've just looked and its a spline driven pump like the D3, no belt. It could have failed and affected nothing else.

Jut odd it would be fine, then nothing. That more like fluid loss, but I'm sure you'd notice a big puddle on your drive.

The steering on my D4 is very light, lighter than any D3 I've ever driven. Was yours this responsive when you first got it ?

it was virtually the same feeling as the 19000 mile 4.2 i drove a week earlier, everything was fine and then gone.

its been pelting down so it possible if theres a leak i havent noticed.

it was non commital though he did add to get them to speak directly to him.

will reserve judgement, but dont see what choice i have anyway, if he is going to bugger about i still need the car up and running

Bit pants to keep an A8 customer waiting so long really unless they have furnished you with a decent loaner. There is only a handful of things that a power steering fault could be so would have expected them to be a bit closer by now...

When do you go on hols ??

limoncello 15th April 2016 10:13 AM

it was a recovery so they say they have 48 hours to start looking at it rather than being booked in on a day.

no loaner yet, all the cars are out, but not leaving for france until friday so still plenty of time.

spoke to Oscar, says he will cover it

Still waiting for the call from Audi
