Well 2568 miles in and had to call Audi .Cars developed a bad fuel leak, looks like from a manifold of sorts. So awaiting a return call from them to see way forward.As it looks like it's been spraying out a bit. Not a happy bunny

Any pictures. Hopefully a one -off but good to look out for.

Do let us know what Audi diagnoses.

Hmmmm worrying - not a component under any stress.

Mine makes an annoying high pitched whistling sound from where dash meets windscreen at around 120mph

Yep especially with the Turbo in close proximity both were loose . He has noted it and I mentioned it should be a flag up check on their inspection in the future .

Sloppy workmanship to say the least, I hope that one goes right back to the factory so they can tighten, ;-), up on their qc..

Has anyone else checked their pipes to see if they are loose ?

I checked for signs of fuel but didn’t actually check tightness - maybe I should
