Thinking about canceling the A8 recall
So have a appointment for tomorrow to have the A8 transmission line recall performed , but after reading all the horror stories might take my chance. I just don't really want the car to come back worse off than before... I bought it last Oct and it is sitting right at 4000 miles right now... If it was up to you would you go through with it or cancel it?
Thanks

I had mine done, only 1500 miles, told them I did not want it changed unless needed, and with so few miles I didn't think it would need changed. Upon inspection it was not rubbed through as the recall cautions, but there was a tight bend in the area of the body bolt. So cut the bolt and changed the line.
Do it... no problems here. |

On the forum, you're going to read about members that had problems more than those that did not. I had mine done about 2 months ago and haven't had any issues. Same with a buddy - no issues.

You need to keep what you read here in perspective. This community represents only the smallest of sample sizes of Gen 6 owners. Complaints will show up here way more frequently because it has become a location for some to vent both real and perceived issues.

Got mine done, screw fell out on the splash guard when i pulled in the driveway.
I had to remove the fascia anyhow to install Whipple SC kit. So all missing screws (4) broken (1) and clean all the ATF fluid wasn't a issue. Some one had to go back and redo it....

I went ahead and dropped it off after work today, got me a CRUZE as a loaner.. I just asked the service writer if he wouldn't mind keeping it inside.. " NO problem we can do that" he said. He told me should be done tomorrow or Wed ..
