Default needed: capable and HONEST mechanic/shop in Ottawa

for my A8L 2004(d3) 4.2

it's currently in my driveway.
Needs error codes pulled

was driving on cruise control and the vehicle just started to decelerate--engine kept running. stop started took off--same result

any help or suggestions very much appreciated.

PS. someone came by last night and felt the last guy to do the oil change DID NOT add the oil !! can you believe it.
How can I confirm there is no oil in engine. dip-stick does read very very low.

Ask for Bryan (owner) - a great guy. He used to be in Toronto (very well known and liked there and moved here - lucky for us). He was an Audi tech but went on his own. Very good with Audi and has all the equipment to service you properly. Decent pricing too.

Tell him Mark with the Sprint Blue RS4 sent you.
He'll take very good care of you.

BTW, I recommend topping up with Castrol Edge with Syntec, most easily available (even Crappy Tire has it) but not necessarily the best for our engines (Motul is, IMHO), before bringing it in to be sure you don't damage your engine, IF your dip stick is not showing any oil or very low.

Let us know how it goes.
