Description of the problem	On my way to work my car stalled /lost power ,glow plug light went on then i couldn't restart my car. I had to tow my car to my dealer where i bought my car. The next day they called me that they have to order alot of parts and replace entire fuel system: fuel pump, hpfp, fuel line injectors and seals and they have to clean the tank! I would like to inform you that i am the original owner and only me was using that car. I have never used anything but high quality diesel fuel from shell gas station located on dempster street in skokie,il. I buy ulsd once a month and have all the receipts from this year ( and if necessary from day one from my bank credit card history) because of this i am 100% sure that any claim that i used wrong fuel is without base. If the ultralow sulfur diesel fuel recommended by car manufacturers doesn't much specification this should be resolved before putting diesel car on the market. I would like to mention that all maintenance on my car was done on time at authorized dealerships. I change oil every 4k miles instead 10k as manufacturer recommending my audis' warranty expires next month and i hope that audi will extended my warranty for another 4 years/50k miles!!! If not i have to get rid of my car that i was planning to keep for long time. Bad hpfp craftsmanship and design should be corrected as soon as possible if audi/vw wants to sell diesel cars in us!
