Gonna have to edit my review here.
A couple months ago I gladly paid $200 diagnostic proactively for a check engine light that I was concerned with fail my inspection. I was given a whole list of things that should be fixed but told that none of them would be a problem for my inspection. I requested that none of the work be done at the moment and I would be back after getting a good inspection sticker.
Today I went for my inspection and failed for exactly what I took my car in for. (My not surprise face).
I came back and spoke to Angela who informed me that I would have to do the same diagnostic all over again since it could be a different issue (same exact codes two months later).
When I said I wasn't paying for a diagnostic for the same exact issue that wasn't fixed last time and probably wouldn't be fixed this time she tacked on to the conversation that I had previously declined replacing a dust cover wish had gone missing after some work they had done on my turbo.
According to her, this dust cover could also trigger these codes related to DPF (mechanic had stated otherwise) and since I declined said work they would not waive the diagnostic. I reminded her that the mechanic had previously said why this cover should be replaced and that it was not related to these codes - personally, I think they should replace the cover since it went missing while the car was in their possession, but I have never pressed this issue.
At this point she changed her tone and put a lot of emphasis on that they would absorb the diagnostic fee into any repairs tho they still would not wave the diagnostic fee. I asked if they would also be willing to absorb the last diagnostic fee as well and was told that it was for an unrelated issue so no they could not.
End of the day, the first time I am the one that had to tell them that this could be a difficult issue to diagnose while they explained that it would not be an issue - totally false! They could have had a decent job out of this one. Oh well, they said if it was a problem I should just bring it back and they would get to the bottom of it.
So that's what I did once I had proof that it was a problem and suddenly apparently we have a whole new story.
Original review:
These guys have always done me great!
They acknowledge my understanding of cars and are willing to communicate on that level.
They recognize when I say yes and when I say no. This company understands what it means to work for your customer and while I do most of my own work on my cars I am always happy every time that I do decide to bring my Audi here.
Of course prices aren't cheap, I understand I bought an Audi. You get what you pay for. I would honestly say that they are entirely reasonable for a dealership and I will always come back.
