That's not right. I would bring it in ASAP. Don't even speculate or see if it happens again. Have them inspect it before the problem comes up again.

Not to be corrective, but I really do want clarification.....did your car "brake" or "break"?

I agree with drexappeal. You should take it in before the fault codes are overwritten in the computer. That will tell them what happened.

Don't "c after work", insist that you have them look at it ASAP, today or tomorrow. This really sucks since it's a brand new car. Hope you get a loaner while it's being checked out.

Woah. Hopefully it is just that. It'll be horrible if it's something worse. Good thing they have a loaner ready for you (make sure to ask for a Benzo - or at least, I have to ask for one anytime I get a rental).

Got it.....but after i had to complain. They said they ran low on loaners and then stated my age saying theres more ppl who NEED loaners and i dont NEED a loaner. I simply told them if they dont fix everything completely and do my welcome checkup and fix my mirror that didnt adjust when i put it in reverse...that i was going to get out of my lease due to negligence and arrogence. Was a little annoyed....but got a 06 blk on blk c280 luxury edition w/ 480 miles. I enjoy it....im jealous its got the lighting package(trying to figure a way to swap them lol) But yea its ok hopefully ill get mine back asap ... i miss em =)

Transmission Fluid

Doesn't it strike you as odd that if indeed it is a fluids level problem in the transmission that was causing it to drop into neutral that it wouldn't hurt the transmission?

I took delivery of my 1998 Audi A4 Quattro (loaded) and it promptly dumped it's load of oil. I was stranded in a parking lot.
What was the question?
