Massive non issues with cars

I'm at my wits end with nowhere else to turn.

We have bought 2 brand new cars recently, a new TT diesel sport Ultra and a Chevrolet Orlando diesel LT.

Looking at the posts on here I'm really worried that I have not bought duff cars.

There are lights on the dashboard though, the Chevrolet has a green arrow whenever I turn, but the Audi does not have this? But both occasionally get this amber symbol next to a fuel pump?

Do you think I can return them?

    Surely the Orlando isn't brand new....Chevrolet pulled out of Europe two years ago?
    I don't know about the Audi but isn't the green arrow on the Chevrolet just to tell you to change up a gear to drive more economically?
    I would have thought you would have to give them a chance to nspect the cars before to ensure they are actually faulty.
    The amber light could be an indication that the dpf needs regenerating.If you drive like a fairy you will inevitably block your dpf.

    I think you may be missing my point!:rotfl:

    The green arrow means you are turning its called an indicator and the amber light that comes on next to the fuel pump symbol means you are running low on fuel. LOL!!!

    Are they automatic? if so you can sit in the back when driving and you would not see them.

    Brand new Chevrolet?? You would have been better buying the new Ford that's just out the model T

    If you swap it for a BMW then you'll find it doesn't have this feature fitted. Would that suit you better?
