Had to change the air con/auxillary electric cooling fan in my A6, it burnt out and the car has been close to overheating a couple of times. Got a new one from ebay, thought it would be a 10 min job to unplug and replace it.. apparently not.

:o
new cars are a pain in the ass to work on :-(
8 hours at a main stealer to change a thermostat ? I could single handedly change the engine in an old transit van quicker than that !
