The prop went on my TTRS a month or so ago. It had only done 1.5k miles  :surprised:

Have Audi solved it on the TTRS?  
Be a second hand sale nightmare if its an on going problem which passes the manufacturers warranty term. :surprised:

It's never really been an issue on the TTRS only mine and toms props seem to have gone, and mine happened after a 6k clutch dump at the pod.

Have you been playing with the LC a little too much Oli?  :signLOL:

On a serious note - at least it's a warranty matter and is't going to affect your pocket mate. Still a PITA though, especially when it's so new...

I must have done hundreds of launches in the R. That must have a nice strong prop.  :driver:

I've heard of a few of these going, but they do seem to be dropping like flies at the moment. Maybe it is the fact there are more being modified now they are getting a little older?

I've read up on 3 or 4 cars that have had them replaced and they've all been standard!
Forget modifying it then :laugh:

I deal with warranty issues everyday, so it's no big deal, plus I've quite enjoyed thrashing their S3 around! The RS3 will be so much better when i get it :happy2:

The propshaft that is being fitted is modified/updated over the original.  Ive got no intention of modding this car any way, apart from maybe the cat bypass pipes  :smiley:
