| Dealer Letter an | 2017-10-21. Service bulletin. WHEELS. This document contains the notice of the upcoming customer satisfaction campaign 44L6 regarding wheel replacement.

In order to ensure continued customer satisfaction, Audi has obtained a set of four brand new 19-inch wheels for each affected vehicle and will install them in place of the factory-installed wheels free of charge. The new wheels meet Audi appearance specifications, and are also available for replacement ordering by Audi dealers. |
