Consumer Description

DRIVING WESTBOUND ON I20 FROM COLUMBIA, SC TO ST ROBERT/FORT LEONARD WOOD, MO WHEN ENGINE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. LIMPED ABOUT 3/4 MI TO NEXT EXIT AND CALLED FOR A TOW TRUCK. TRANSPORTED VEHICLE BACK TO NEAREST AUDI DEALER (45 MI EAST) IN COLUMBIA, SC. AUDI OF COLUMBIA DID DIAGNOSTIC AND AFTER $2527.00 DETERMINED THAT THE EXHAUST CAMSHAFT ON BANK 1 BROKE IN THE CENTER.
