Florence the A6

My car was bought from Warrington Audi

Hi All, I hope I’ve posted this in the right place. since taking delivery of my A6 2 years 8 months ago, I’ve had a problem with the parking sensors, they go off for no reason and the car brakes, even when nothing is around. The dealership I bought the car from insist there is nothing wrong with her, they plug her into some computer which comes up with “environmental issues” they say a sensor is either dirty or has stone damage , I asked them to show me the offending sensor and they said they are all fine, there is nothing wrong. This isn’t the only problem I’ve had with sensors, and it’s getting much worse, so much so, after the last visit to the dealership where I couldn’t even get the car out of the car park without her breaking thinking she was going to hit something, they still insisted there was nothing wrong…. I decided it’s time for her to go. Which is sad, as she is the best car I’ve ever owned. Over that weekend, I thought I’d try another Audi dealer, so Monday morning I popped over to Blackburn Audi (40 mikes away) I explained I hadn’t bought the car from them, they replied you drive an Audi, we are an Audi dealer, we will look after your car. They booked her in, gave me a free courtesy car (my dealer charges £35 a day for a courtesy car) and in she went. They have fixed the issue, I now have the car I should have got originally. I’ve cancelled the cars service and mot at my local dealer and she is booked in at Blackburn Audi. Their customer service is perfect, they were sympathetic to the problems I was having and they sorted it. They thanked me for my business, Audi get charged for the warranty work. I was ready to turn my back on Audi, Blackburn Audi have restored my faith in the brand. The next Audi I buy will be from them. Oh and they had the new A5 in the showroom, it was beautiful 😊

I agree, the grey trim really brightens the interior 😊

I don’t know, but they did.. then I realised I’d forgotten the mud flaps and they said it’s too late to add anything to the order, we were still in the showroom after just placing the order… I still to this day don’t understand that, but hey, the car looks better without them 😊

Thank you, it’s our first Audi, and we love it, it does have one problem, I’ll post about that in a day or so… thanks for the comment 😊

Thanks, glad you like it, we love it too😊 we specked that ourselves, Audi kept asking us are we sure? .. we replied yep 😊

Hi my name is Stephen and I own an A6 S Line 45 Tfsi Quattro. In Firmament blue with rotor grey leather. We have had Florence, that’s her name, yes I know it’s daft, but all my cats and bikes have had a name, since new in March 2022. I have read your message to newbies and I’m not going to post and run. However my reason for coming here is that she has developed a fault. I’m not going into that here today as it’s not the time and place, and I am trying to introduce myself. I will post her fault once introductions are over. I'm a retired Accountant, I love cars, motorcycles , hiking and gardening. I have posted some pictures of Florence on your post a pic thread. For good measure, here is another of Florence the A6 and Vicky the R1M . have a great day , Stephen 😊

Hi Newbie here. Here are some photos of Florence the A6. She is my first Audi 😀
