The computer says it needs a new battery bc they left te ignition on while servicing.. happens all the time. You actually need to put is on a charger while servicing it. Modern cars have so many electrical users, batteries don't last long when ignition. That's why i think he laugh, bc he knows the battery is fine! The other dude only asked him if he was going to charge you a new battery. I think you should be worried if he did charge you a new battery, bc it's a easy way to make money for most dealers

That battery was most likely under warranty and warranty does not pay like out of pocket does so they didn't want to deal with it. Also it most likely was in a annoying place but im not to sure. Either way they should have told you.

As a former dealership mechanic, some batteries can be a complete B-word to do. Knowing how “shop talk” can be, how I interpret what he said was, the car was already there a lot of stuff, much longer than the initial oil change, and adding a battery would add a decent amount of time to the job, he did mark it off on the sheet, I would actually fault the service advisor for not rescheduling you to get in for that. The mechanic didn’t make a big fuss of it because it’s not a big deal as the car starts with no problems. But yeah service advisor should’ve booked you in for a battery replacement on another day. Anyone calling for that mechanic to be fired, I mean, that’s literally how most talk. Mechanics talk like that with each other, they wouldn’t to the customer, he didn’t know he was being filmed. Also most dealerships you’re not allowed to film in, so I’m not sure I would’ve posted this video.

The condition of the service area is pretty appalling for a high end car dealership. It looks like a low class backyard shop. You can tell the owners take no pride in their service area. Speaks volumes about how professional they are.

@tboneforreal3 жыл бұрын
He's laughing because the diagnostics say the battery is bad and he must know it's not easy to replace. I watched a couple of videos and you have to remove the wipers and the whole frunk to get to the battery, so his laugh is like, "I've spent 4 hours working on this car, no way am I doing that today."

@@mikesterlb Lol, I'm just connecting dots. I'm not a mechanic, but I do understand a little about how warranty repairs work. I was curious why he wouldn't want to replace a battery, which normally isn't a big deal, and I found a couple videos. You got to take the whole freaking frunk out to replace the battery and one of the guys in the video said the estimate was given was for about an hour of labor. I'm just guessing after he was already spending 4 hours doing service on the car, he didn't want to spend another hour tearing apart and reassembling the front of the car just to replace the battery.

You should ensure the general manager of this Audi dealership sees the full camera video of your service experience. For the extremely high prices they charge for Audi service they should treat all their customers with respect and provide exemplary service. I suspect dealership management is unaware this sort of behavior is going on. It will cost them customers in the end, and may result in customers’ cars not receiving proper care and experiencing greater potential damage in the future from neglected repairs.

Expecting honesty & competence out of a dealership tech is like walking into the ocean & expecting to come out dry. There has to be a few good ones out there who actually care, but no one will ever care about your car like you do. Even if you can't do the work, being able to diagnose yourself is what it's all about. Different caliber of car here than the norm though. Respect to you for keeping a level head about it! Not easy!

Cochran purched South Hills Audi from I think it was A&W or P&W maybe back around 2016. Before that South Hills Audi was an amazing place to get service. I no longer own an Audi, simply because there's no longer a trusted place for me to get it serviced. I had an experience at Sewickley Audi about 12 years ago where they damaged my car and refused to admit it - granted that was a very long time ago, but I never went back there again after that.
