H All, Would value the community opinion. I know what I should do but not what I want too! Bought a 2009 1.8 Audi A3 s line convertible 2 weeks ago. I love it! Cruse control, Leather seats 18inch rims and all for £6k .55,000 miles on the clock (around 2k under parkers guide).FSH Basically love the car until.........Oil light has come on! put 1ltr of oil in and then 600 miles later oil light is on again. Now im speaking to audi as this was on watchdog and they will fix this free of charge as its a known engine fault (Piston rings are to tight) 9 out of 10 times supply a new engine. Thinking I would take the risk as I can still return it with 30 days but then this morning the coolant light has come on too! on checking has low coolant. Could just be not checked by the dealer? Coolant looks clear and there are no drips under the car. Took about 1/2 a pint to bring up to max So my issue do I a.) Keep the car and get dealer/ Audi to pay for all of the repairs needed and hope nothing else goes wrong b.) cut my losses and return the car and get a car not as spec'ed As said I love the car and really want to keep it but I dont want to be stuck with a turkey that will cost me ££££ in the long run. If i get a new engine whats the worst that can happen??
