THIS WAS NOT A BLIZZAK LM-25. IT WAS A BLIZZAK LM-60. TWICE WITHIN A YEAR, I'VE HAD MY REAR TIRE TREAD COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM THE BEADS, SPLITTING ALL THE WAY AROUND ON THE INNER AND OUTER SIDEWALLS. THE FIRST TIME WAS ON THE PASSENGER REAR WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 75 MPH. IT BLEW OFF AND WENT ROLLING BESIDE AND BEHIND THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE RIGHT HAND SHOULDER. THE CAR WAS PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY WITH SOME DAMAGE OCCURRING TO THE INNER TIRE WHEEL WELL. THE SECOND TIME OCCURRED DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL ROAD, AFTER RECENTLY EXITING THE FREEWAY. THIS TIME IT WAS THE DRIVER'S REAR. WHILE IT SEPARATED, I HEARD AND FELT IT AND PULLED TO THE CURB. THIS TIME THERE WAS DAMAGE DONE TO THE WHEEL WELL AS WELL AS THE BODY TRIM THE GOES FROM THE FRONT TO THE REAR WHEEL WELLS BENEATH THE DOORS. I HAVE PICTURES.

FUEL TANK LEAK FROM TIP OVER VALVE. THERE IS A RECALL ON IT. AUDI RECALL 20L8/JY WAS PERFORMED ON 5/16/2012. BUT THE VALVE STARTED LEAKING AGAIN RECENTLY. I CALLED AUDI OF AMERICA (AOA) THEY HAD ME TAKE THE CAR TO AUSTIN NORTH AUDI DEALER FOR CONFIRMATION AND TAKING PHOTOS. AFTER THE DEALER CONFIRMATION THEY DENIED MY REQUEST TO COVER THE FUEL TANK REPLACEMENT. THEIR REASON WAS: CAR IS TOO OLD, I AM SECOND OWNER, AND THERE IS NO BRAND LOYALTY (THIS IS MY FIRST AUDI). HERE ARE THE AUDI OF AMERICA CASE DETAILS: VIN: [XXXXXX] AUDI RECALL CODE 20L8/JY AUDI CASE #: [XXX] AUDI OF AMERICA REP: SHEMONA (1-800-822-2834 EXT. 43444) CURRENT OWNER: [XXX] OWNER PHONE: [XXX] PLEASE ADVISE IF AOA IS LIABLE FOR REPLACING THE TANK WHEN RECALL DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE OF TIP OVER VALVE LEAK.

TRANSMISSION WOULD OCCASIONALLY SLIP TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC I HAD TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER AS I COULDN'T ACCELERATE. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE CAR THAT HAS MUCH MORE POWER THAN MOST VEHICLES SO UNDER NORMAL OPERATIONS ACCELERATION SHOULD BE QUICK & FAST. THIS FIRST STARTED WITH ONLY 35~40,000 MILES ON THE CAR. ALL RS6 OWNERS BEGIN TO LEARN THAT THE ONLY TWO WEEK POINTS IN THE CAR ARE THE SUSPENSION AND THE TRANSMISSION. THANKS TO THE NHTSA THE VEHICLES WERE FINALLY RECALLED FOR SUSPENSION FAILURES. NOW WE ARE LEFT WITH A SUBSTANDARD TRANSMISSION DESIGN. I RECENTLY PAID $5000 TO HAVE MY TRANSMISSION REBUILT BY A SHOP THAT GUARANTEES TO FIX THE FACTORY DRAWBACKS. PREVIOUSLY I TOOK IT TO THE AUDI DEALER TO NO AVAIL. *TR

2003 AUDI RS6 (A6 4.2 V8 BITURBO) FUEL TANK DEFECT: THIS COMPLAINT IS IN REGARD TO MY 2003 AUDI RS6 SEDAN. AFTER NOTICING A STRONG SMELL OF FUEL AND FUEL VAPOR IN MY GARAGE THE MORNING AFTER FILLING UP SAID CAR, I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL AUDI DEALER TO HAVE THE CAR INSPECTED AND DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THAT THE CAR'S FUEL TANK IS BROKEN AT THE TOP WHERE THE ROLL OVER VALVE IS BONDED TO THE TANK. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT A 7 YEAR OLD VEHICLE SHOULD NOT HAVE SUCH A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS PROBLEM SUCH AS A LEAKING FUEL TANK. IN MY RESEARCH I HAVE NOW FOUND THAT A SIMILAR PROBLEM EXISTS WITH OTHER AUDI A6 BASED MODELS - AND THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL SAFETY RECALL (08V-157) FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM, HOWEVER ONLY ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE SMALLER 18.5 GALLON FUEL TANK. THE 21.7 GALLON TANK IN THE AUDI RS6 (4.2 BITURBO QUATTRO) IS MADE OF THE SAME DEFECTIVE MATERIALS AND APPEARS TO HAVE FAILED IN THE SAME WAY AS THE OTHER A6 BASED VEHICLES LISTED IN THE REFERENCED SAFETY RECALL. THIS ISSUE APPEARS TO BE QUITE PREVALENT IN ALL B5 AUDI A6 BASED MODELS (REGARDLESS OF TANK SIZE OR VENT LINE MATERIALS) AND I BELIEVE THAT THE NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE ALL COMPLAINTS AND RECALL ALL 2001-2004 AUDI A6 BASED VEHICLES (INCLUDING THE RS6) AS THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS FAILURE THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN IN VEHICLE SYSTEM THAT IS CRUCIAL TO SAFETY. I CONSIDER MYSELF VERY FORTUNATE THAT THE FUEL AND VAPOR LEAK DIS NOT IGNITE AS IN MY GARAGE IS MY HOMES GAS STORAGE WATER HEATER. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2003 AUDI RS6 WITH REPEAT SUSPENSION FAILURES STEMMING FROM AUDI'S DYNAMIC RIDE CONTROL (DRC). THE SYSTEM FIRST BEGINS LOSING HYDRAULIC PRESSURE, THEN SLOWLY LEAKS THE FLUID OUT OF THE LINKED DAMPER SYSTEM UNTIL THE CAR IS IN EFFECT RIDING ON THE SPRINGS WITH INADEQUATE DAMPER CONTROL. THE END RESULT IS A VERY POOR DRIVING CAR WITH EXCESSIVE BUMP-STEER AND BOUNCE. IF LEFT UNATTENDED, IT RESULTS IN A UNSAFE DRIVING SITUATION DUE TO THE UNPREDICTABLE HANDLING OF THE CAR. I HAVE PUT 12,000 MILES IN THE CAR IN ONE YEAR AND HAVE HAD THE SHOCKS AND CENTRAL ACCUMULATOR VALVES CHANGED 3 TIMES. I FULLY EXPECT TO BE BACK INTO THE DEALER IN 5,000 MILES OR LESS, AND I JUST PICKED THE CAR UP FROM THE DEALER ON THURSDAY, AUG 14TH. *TR

THE DYNAMIC RIDE CONTROL (DRC) FAILED IN MY CAR, AND I UNDERSTAND IT FREQUENTLY FAILS IN THIS TYPE OF CAR. IT HAS JUMPY HANDLING AND SIDESTEPPING OVER BUMPS ON THE INTERSTATE. ROUNDING CURVES AT SPEED OVER EXPANSION JOINTS IS PLAIN DANGEROUS WHEN THE DRC FAILS. THE CAR BOUNCES, WHEELS LOSE CONTACT AND CAR SIDESTEPS. OBVIOUSLY THE FACT THAT IT REPEATEDLY FAILS IN THESE CARS IS THE ISSUE. *TR

MY SHOCKS AND CENTRAL CONTROL VALVES LEAK FLUID WHICH CAUSES INSTABILITY IN THE SUSPENSIONS SYSTEM. THE FLUID LEAKS OFF REDUCING THE SYSTEM PRESSURES WITHIN THE SHOCK SYSTEM SUCH THAT STABILITY IS EFFECTED WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, EXCESSIVE LEANING AROUND CORNERS, TRAMMING WHEN ENCOUNTERING GROOVING IN THE ROAD SURFACES, DIRECTIONAL STABILITY WHEN GOING OVER HOLES IN THE ROAD SURFACE IN CORNERS, ETC. ONCE THE SHOCK START LEAKING IT ONLY GETS WORSE AND EFFECTS THE SPRING DAMPENING AND GENERAL STABILITY OF THE CAR. A SIMPLE DROP TEST COMPARISON CAN BE MADE TO DEMONSTRATE THE EFFECT BETWEEN A CAR WHICH HAS NOT LEAKS IN THE SYSTEM AND ONE WHICH HAS HAD LEAKING SHOCKS FOR AWHILE (I.E. LOWER SYSTEM PRESSURE). THE SHOCK AND VALVES HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURE ON BOTH OCCASIONS. HOWEVER, I CONTINUALLY SEE RE-OCCURRENCE OF THIS PROBLEM REPORTED ON THE WEB SITES. MY ORIGINAL SHOCKS AND CENTRAL VALVES WERE LEAKING AND FINALLY REPLACED AFTER BEING ON BACKORDER FOR QUITE SOME TIME. LESS THAN 5000 MILES LATER THE SHOCKS WERE LEAKING AGAIN AND ALL SHOCKS AND CENTRAL VALVES WERE REPLACED AGAIN.. I'M VERY CONCERNED THIS FAILURE WILL CONTINUE HAPPENING WITH THIS SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INSTALLING RE-DESIGNED PARTS WHICH WILL NOT EXHIBIT THIS PREMATURE FAILURE MODE OF LEAKING RESULTING IN INSTABILITY WHEN ONE LEAST EXPECTS IT. *TR

2003 AUDI RS6. I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW AND OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS HAVE HAD SHOCK ABSORBER FAILURES ON 3 OF THE 4 CORNERS. LEFT FRONT AND LEFT REAR SHOCK HAVE EACH FAILED ONCE AND THE RIGHT REAR SHOCK HAS FAILED 4 TIMES. THIS VEHICLE HAS ACCUMULATED LESS THAN 16,500 MILES AS OF 6/12/2008. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT OF SHOCK ABSORBER FAILURE OCCURRED IN MAR 2008 WITH A RIGHT REAR SHOCK. THE SHOCK AND ASSOCIATED CENTRAL CONTROL VALVE WAS REPLACED AT AN AUTHORIZED AUDI DEALER. TWO MONTHS LATER THE SAME SHOCK WAS FOUND TO BE LEAKING HYDRAULIC FLUID AND HAD TO BE REPLACED WITH IT'S ASSOCIATED CENTRAL CONTROL VALVE. THIS WAS AFTER ONLY 600 MILES OF DRIVING. WHEN THE SHOCKS DEPRESSURIZE THE CARS HANDLING IS COMPROMISED AND RESULTS IN UNPREDICTABLE HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS THAT COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. ALTHOUGH IN MY CASE AN ACCIDENT HAS NOT OCCURRED AT THIS POINT, IT CERTAINLY COULD SOME TIME IN THE FUTURE AS THE SYSTEM IS UNRELIABLE. THE ONLY THING PREDICTABLE ABOUT THIS "DRC" DYNAMIC RIDE CONTROL SYSTEM IS THAT IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME BEFORE THE SHOCKS FAIL AGAIN. A SINGLE SHOCK FAILURE COSTS BETWEEN $1,200 AND $1,700 TO REPAIR DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THE SYSTEM AND THE ASSOCIATED PARTS THAT ALSO MUST BE REPLACED. TOTAL COSTS OF REPAIRS TO THE DRC SYSTEM ON MY VEHICLE TO DATE IS OVER $8,000. KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS CAR HAS LESS THAN 16,500 MILES ON THE CLOCK AS OF JUNE 2008. THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERED THE COSTS OF THESE REPAIRS FOR THE FIRST 4 YEARS AND NOW THE EXTENDED WARRANTY IS COVERING THE COST SINCE THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED LESS A DEDUCTIBLE. IN MY OPINION THE "DRC" SYSTEM ON THIS VEHICLE WAS EITHER UNDER ENGINEERED OR THE FACTORY HAS A VENDOR PROBLEM WITH DEFECTIVE PARTS. IN ANY CASE THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR ANY CAR AND ESPECIALLY FOR A CAR THAT HAD A STICKER PRICE OF $88,000 IN 2003. *TR

I OWN AN AUDI RS6 AND RECENTLY MY CAR'S SUSPENSION IN PARTICULAR THE SHOCKS FAILED. THE SYSTEM IS CALLED DRC AND USES HYDRAULIC SHOCKS THAT ARE CROSS CONNECTED THROUGH CENTRAL VALVES. WHEN ANY OF THEM LEAK OR FAIL THE OPPOSITE SHOCK WILL HAVE NO OR REDUCED PRESSURE AND FAIL TOO. WHEN THE SHOCKS STARTED TO GO THE CAR WOULD JUMP WHEN TAKING CURVES FOR INSTANCE THAT HAVE EXPANSION JOINTS ON THE INTERSTATE...THE REAR OF THE CAR WOULD HOP SIDEWAYS. THERE IS A VERY UNSTEADY CONDITION WHEN IT STARTS TO FAIL. THERE IS NO REAL WARNING AND NO WAY TO TELL WHEN THE SYSTEM IS FAILING. ONLY ONCE FULL PRESSURE IS LOST AND THE CAR BECOMES VERY TWITCHY IS IT OBVIOUS SOMETHING IS WRONG. THE DESIGN OF THE SHOCKS SEEMS TO BE INADEQUATE TO LAST A NORMAL LIFE AND ANY OF THEM FAILING CAUSES FULL LOSS OF THE SYSTEM ALL FOUR OF MY SHOCKS WERE LEAKING AT ONCE AND THE ENTIRE SYSTEM WAS REPLACED (ALL FOUR SHOCKS AND THE TWO CENTRAL VALVES). NO INDIVIDUAL SHOCK CAN BE REPLACED WITHOUT DOING THEM IN PAIRS AND REPLACING THE CENTRAL VALVES EACH TIME OR THE CORRECT PRESSURE CANNOT BE MAINTAINED. AUDI OF AMERICA REFUSES TO COVER THE SHOCKS UNDER WARRANTY ALTHOUGH THEY FAIL CONSTANTLY AND NOT FOR WEAR OR AGE REASONS. MINE WERE COVERED BY MY DEALER AS AN ACK OF GOODWILL BUT OTHERWISE WOULD HAVE COST ME $2400. NEXT TIME, WHICH THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME THEY WILL NOT BE COVERED. THERE IS NO REAL ASSURANCE THAT THE NEW SHOCKS WILL LAST. *TR
