BROUGHT IT BACK TO D & S AUTO. D & S AUTO HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THEY SAID THE LIST OF PROBLEMS WERE NONE FOUND, ONLY THAT THEY FIXED THE ENGINE LIGHT. COUPLE DAYS LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND ALSO THE REAR BACK TIRE WAS MAKING A STRANGE NOISE. D & S AUTO MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE 2001 AUTO TO GO TO ANOTHER DEALER TO BE LOOKED AT. ALSO, PURCHASED THE BEST FULL WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER PRINTED OUT A LIST OF PROBLEMS WHICH ARE LISTED ABOVE HE SAID THAT ARE PROBLEMS AND THE COST WAS GOING TO BE AROUND $3,000.00 AND THAT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER ANY OF THE REPAIRS. *TR

I LEASED AN A4 2001 AUDI IN DECEMBER 2000. MY LEASE RUNS OUT IN MARCH 2004 AND I'M LOOKING AT WHAT MY RIGHTS ARE AS A CONSUMER. OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS, I'VE HAD MY CAR TOWED AND REPAIRED TWICE FOR IGNITION COIL FAILURE AS WELL AS MY TIRES REPLACED FROM OUT OF WHACK ALIGNMENT. TODAY, THE ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED AGAIN AND I WILL DROP IT OFF AT THE AUDI SERVICE DEPARTMENT, THIS MONDAY FOR MAINTENANCE REVIEW. FORTUNATELY, THE ONLY COSTS I'VE INCURRED ARE REPLACEMENT OF THE 2 FRONT TIRES. IT CURRENTLY HAS 33,000 MILES ON IT.
