I HAVE A 1996 AUDI A4 AND THE ENGINE STARTED LEAKING OIL FROM THE CAM TENSIONER, I TALKED TO A FEW AUDI MECHANICS AND OWNERS AND THEY HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS, AND TOLD ME TO REPORT IT TO THIS ORGANIZATION. *JB

MY 1996 AUDI A6 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CONTINUALLY COME ON. REPEATED VISITS TO AUDI DEALER. SPENT SEVERAL HUNDREDS OF $ WITH NO SUCESS. I NOW VISIT THEM EVERY WEEK TO HAVE IT TURNED OFF TO COME ON AGAIN AND AGAIN. I WILL BE THINKING OF RIDING OF THR CAR AND GOING BACK TO HONDA'S. THEY HAVE NEVER FAILED ME.

MY 1996 AUDI A6 HAS A FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH AS DESCIRBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIN ID NUMBER : 96V017000, WHICH APPLIES TO MY CAR'S MODEL YEAR. HOWEVER MY VEHICLE'S VIN NUMBER SEEMS TO FALL RIGHT OUTSIDE THE RANGE DESCRIBED BY AUDI AS THE AFFECTED RANGE, AUDI USA REFUSES TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM UNDER THEIR RECALL PROGRAM. THE PROBLEM IS CLEARLY THE ONE TARGETED BY THIS RECALL CAMPAIGN AND SO I SUSPECT THAT AUDI USA DELIBIRATELY UNDERSTATED THE RANGE OF CARS THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THE PROBLEM SO AS TO SAVE THEMSELVES THE COST OF ADDRESSING IT PROPERLY AND HONESTLY. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR INVESTIGATION OF THIS ISSUE. *AK

IGNITION SWITCH IS CAUSING THE HEADLIGHTS/INTERIOR LIGHTS/HEAT, AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS TO BECOME INOPERATIVE. THIS ONLY OCCURS WHEN THE KEY IS INSERTED INTO THE IGNITION. DEALER WILL REPAIR AT CONSUMER'S EXPENSE.*AK

"CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT REMAINS ON DESPITE REPEATED VISITS TO THE DEALER. FIRST IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH FAILED "VACCUM LINE," BUT THREE MONTHS LATER THE SAME "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME BACK. CORRECTIVE MEASURES HAVE SINCE INCLUDED THE CHANGE OF: OXYGEN SENSORS, FUEL LINES, AND A NEW BATTERY. THE LIGHT IS STILL PERMANENTLY ON, ALTHOUGH NO NOTICABLE DRIVABILITY IS AFFECTED.*AK
