This repair seems fairly significant for a lower mileage car that has seen regular maintenance and used primarily for daily highway commute. I think it's reasonable to expect an engine to provide at minimum 200K trouble free miles when spending $50K. I've contacted Audi USA corporate to see if they will cover the cost. They have responded with a series of questions to begin their investigation. Seems like it would be easy to contact the dealer and pull all the service records in our present age. This is my third VW / Audi Group vehicle. Two of the three have been the most problematic vehicles I've owned. Their corporate culture does not seem to allow them to admit a mistake. Ironically the day I brought my vehicle in another Audi owner (Q5) was in with the same problem. Love the German ride, but having second thoughts on my next replacement vehicle.
