Description of the problem | 2004 audi a4 1. 8t engine sludge--complete engine failure. Audi absurdly refuses to honor their own extended warranty on the basis the car was run without oil. The engine failed internally because there was and is sludge blocking lubrication ports to the moving parts, i. E., failure. This is my executive synopsis, but i have volumes of supporting evidence, unbelievable as it is to think this could happen in america. |
