Massive issues with car!

[Davidacarrick]

So I bought my 2015 A6 C7 in January 2022 with 50,000 miles. Bought it from a reputable main dealer (not Audi) and since purchase I’ve had the following issues:

 

• windscreen replaced/leaking, considerable ingress drivers upper right of screen into headlining - February 2022
• New battery - April 2022
• New throttle - February 2022
• Dual mass flywheel/clutch failure and replacement - February 2022
• Previously reported excessive vibration and gearstick shaking through manual gearbox (mounts all checked) - 3rd/4th/5th gear most obvious - august 2022
• Jumped timing and timing belt water pump replaced - September 2022
• Brake issues - sensor cables replaced. Originally replaced rear pads April 2022 but continued and ended up replacing brake sensor cables.
• Engine/gearbox mount inspection - august 2022
• Gearbox/engine seals repaired/replaced - oil leak on top of gearbox - cleaned after repair - August 2023
• Intercooler pipework resecured? - August 2023

 

Had the car back 1 week before it appeared to be running rough again and was taken back in on 14th august 2023 for 6 weeks.

 

Currents issues:

• Turbo exhaust gas leaks under actuator with carbon deposits visible
• On occasion blowing smoke on acceleration
• Oil leak around cylinder head cover/pcv
• Can consume coolant regularly
• Still vibration in gearstick and squeaking when gear changing 
• Vibration/juddering when driving - obvious on motorway in 5th/6th gear at 60mph plus

 

car is going into Audi now on Tuesday 17th October for diagnostics so will be interested to see what they find!

 

needs resolving asap.
