    i always thought kiwk fit were good and so thought that would be the best place to go.

    Just because they advertise on TV it doesn't mean that they are any good.

    McDonald's advertise on TV a lot and they produce garbage!

    why not give the selling dealer a chance to rectfit it for fux sake...?!

    Or you may have picked up a small stone in the three months you've had the car...?!

    As for service lights. most reset. However some Audi's need to be driven a few hundred miles before they reset.

    thanks harveybobbles but they didnt want anything to do with it, we had to threaten trading standards for them to even look at it so they are not trying to rectify it, they just dont want trading standards on their back
