    Here's a link to my experience with them;

    http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...n-engine-knock

    For those that don't want to read... brought the car in for an oil leak, came out with 2 misfiring cylinders, a knock in the engine and an oil filter with metal parts in it.

    I'm going to take them to court but in the meantime...

    I've loved my S4 more than any other car but the expense and hassles over the last two years have drained me.

    At this point my inclination is to get rid of it as I've been told replacing the 4.2 is not cheap or easy.

    Hey bro I'm sorry to hear this , suck that you are going though this.. I have been in your shoes and it's not easy. Giving your trust to a shop and paying them good money and at the end of it Loosing out big time ... Once again sorry to hear about your situation, I have came across a shop call Tuning Works who are bunch of great guys who stand by there work and it's all about the customer. I would reach out to Tuning Works and see if there's anything worth saving Good luck

    Thanks!

    I have an Audi tech coming to pull off the intake to see if they blocked an oil port. He also informed me (as others in the thread confirmed) doing a carbon cleaning on this car could actually be detrimental to the engine.

    Once he looks at it I'll go from there.

    I'm 50/50, maaaaybe even 70/30 on this... Read through the entire thread, looks like the owner underestimated the extent of the leak(s) and went against the advice of both shops. Just my $0.02

    Ed at ForceFed is the most knowledgeable and straight to the point, no bs, shop owner I have ever come across. Have never had an issue and he has always done right by me and everyone I know who goes there. Just my experience.
