I have a 2001 A4 2.8 Quattro sedan with 59,150 miles on it. I just brought it in to the dealer for the 60K service and received the following news:
There is play in the lower control links and they must be replaced at a cost of $1400 US.
Has anyone had this experience??? I spoke to an independent german auto repair shop and they told me that this problem is not unusual, especially for cars that deal with the oh so great roads in the Eastern US.
Any advice??
Also, anyone done the timing belt change at 60K??? I'm looking at a lot of money into this car and I want to be sure I do it right.
