    - FAYETTEVILLE, NC

    AS I WAS PULLING OFF THE INTERSTATE TO USE THE RESTROOM, MY ENGINE LOST ALL POWER. I LOST CONTROL OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WHILE IN MOTION. I WAS ABLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT THE STOP SIGN. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR TEMPORARILY AND ENOUGH TO PULL INTO THE GAS STATION RIGHT OFF THE INTERSTATE. I DID NOT THINK THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG AND WENT TO USE THE BATHROOM. WHEN I CAME BACK OUTSIDE TO THE CAR IT WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO USE MY INSURANCE COMPANY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO AN AUDI DEALERSHIP. THE AUDI SERVICE DEPARTMENT INFORMED ME THAT I HAD A TURBO FAILURE. THERE WAS SCORCHING PRESENT WHEN THE SR TECH VIEWED THE TURBO WITH A BORESCOPE. THE CAR IS KNOWN FOR THIS ISSUE AND HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. THERE ARE 2 TSBS THAT ARE RELATED TO TURBO FAILURE FOR THESE CARS, TSB2044640/9. THANK GOODNESS I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WILL HAVE 2 NEW TURBOS, A NEW OIL SCREEN AND PCV DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND THAT IS A 5 FIGURE COST.

    BOTH TURBOCHARGERS FAILED DUE TO OIL STARVATION AT JUST OVER 45000 MILES. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND REQUIRED THE VEHICLE TO BE TRANSPORTED DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER AS A MAJOR FAILURE.

    BITURBO FAILURE CAUSED ENGINE TO TURN OFF WITHOUT WARNING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NO POWER. I HAD TO MERGE THROUGH TWO LANES TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT POWER. CAR WOULD NOT RESTART. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THAT SOME HAVE BEEN ON FIRE. NEED TO REPLACE THE TURBO. INTERNET SAYS AT LEAST $14,000.00, THOUGH I AM COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
