R8 - Rtronic fault
Discussion
Bought 57 plate R8 Rtronic with 5000 miles on the clock serviced by a Bentley dealership from whom I purchased it from in March 2010.
Few days ago whilst driving a gearbox malfunction warning came up, stopped and restarted and did this for three occasions, each time the light would go off. The final journey could not engage auto and when I stopped I was unable to start the car. It took an hour and bit for a recovery team to get it onto a flat bed trailer
The car is with an Audi dealership and now has 10,000 miles on the clock it is being looked at on Thursday.
Are there any known problems with the gearbox and are there any scenarios where the claim will not be met by warranty.
I am assured that the fact the car was serviced by Bentley does not affect the warranty. In my opinion if there was any issue with the warranty I would still have protection under the Sale of Goods Act.
