Got the car back today. After it's last recall. So they had the car for 8 days this time. In 6 weeks I have only clocked 207 miles. I tried to find out what they actually did. It was a battery module check, where they have to monitor the traction battery over a number of days. Mine passed OK. I wonder how long before I get another recall?

Hi James When I had my A6 I think the sump capacity was about 8 litres not quarts. Tony

Hi Jessica I had exactly this problem with a BMW I had. Lumpy running and cutting out. The problem on this occasion was that when I had topped up the engine oil I had cross threaded the oil cap which allowed air to get into the system. Being a sealed system it was causing the MAF sensor to give incorrect info to the ECU. Just a thought. Tony

The E Tron GT is a very wide car. 7 feet between the mirrors. I scuffed the offside rear wheel in a multi story car park the other day. As I have already had the wheels refurbed by Audi because of corrosion when the car was new they cannot be done again. So I purchased a another wheel. Managed to get a second hand one in perfect condition with a worn tyre at a reasonable price. I now know why there is no spare wheel. There is nowhere to put it. This rear wheel is so wide it only just fits in the boot. It took two blokes to put it in, not sure how to get it out yet.

Hi John On my app I have a "All Functions" feature. Tap there and I get Theft and Location. Tap there and status image appears. I don't know what happens next if there is an alarm or attempted theft. Tony

I will try to find out. Probably over kill by Audi. Anyway back on the bus after the 9th December.

Thanks for that Steve. But I have that covered. My granddaughter works for Formula 1 hospitality, and she has got me some fire proof underwear and F1 racing suit. The only thing is I feel a bit of a prat when I go into Sainsburys.

Very rarely do I charge away from home. I think I have only done it once. I never charge beyond 80% as recommended by Audi. My OHME home charger charges somewhere between 6.5 and 7.4 KW. depending on the house load. In the 18 months I have had the car I have only done 4400 miles.

Yet another recall. Changed the name the car now. It is a Audi Recall GT. Going in December 9th for 8 days this time. Battery charge checks. It seems they need to discharge the battery on day one and then slowly recharge. This cycle has to be done more than once, therefore the long stay in the garage. Tony

Hi Jillian Sorry to hear about your heater. Mine was changed on the last recall. I agree they do seem to spend a lot of their time at Audi recently. Tony

I do some times wonder if I am sitting on a 440v time bomb. But, at 81 if you got to go, it's nice to be on top of the one you love.

It is an insulation check. Booked for the 12th.

Hi Just got another recall on the GT. 931B. Some thing to do with the high voltage battery. Tony
