So after 2 days of diagnostic I finally received a phone call from Audi. I was told my injectors will be replaced. They have ordered the part and I will have to make another trip back there next week.

Glad to hear - I am sure it's just bad luck, the car is way too new for thins like this. Sorry you have to go through this. You should have made them give you a free replacement car. I hope this fixes it.

Mine goes in a second time on Monday. Thanks for the update. I'll mention to the service department that you are getting new injectors.

Out of interest did they mention anything about carbon build up? Just curious as the FSI's have a tendency to have carbon build up.

no they didn't. The guys here are not that good. They had to call toronto for instructions and details. They couldn't tell me why I needed injectors.

lol, I bet anything it's related to the FSI carbon build up. Although I doubt Audi would admit to is.

FSI carbon build up makes sense, but this car is wayyyy too new..... It's so sad that dealships don't go through intense training for new model cars. One time I had to deal with them, they don't now much.

My buddy had 4,000Km on his Audi and he had carbon build up around the intake manifolds right through to the injectors.
