2 weeks for a TCM??!!!!

Does this sound like fiction to you?
two weeks for a transmission control module because it has to be programmed in Germany??!!!
This is the first Audi I've owned and I'm disappointed.
My last four cars were volvos and all but my wife's wagon could leave my A4 in the dust on any day I owned them. Put 250k miles on one, 180k on another and never had them in the shop for more than a day.

You're in the wrong forum to be hating on your Audi. Go buy a Volvo you baby.

2 weeks was what I was told by my shop, too. Not a dealership though, private shop. It ended up coming in about 1 and 1/2 if it makes you feel any better. I'm assuming you are having problems w/ your CVT?

volvo = ford which also = crap IMO

Maybe as a new part, but you can get a used TCU for much less money (~$200>,) and provided the PN is the same as the original TCU, is a direct replacement, plug and play. Remember that ALL cars are on the road using used parts, new parts are not the only source for a replacment TCU. What is the PN of the TCU originally fitted, or Model Year and engine and transmission codes?
