How does this work? My Audi hasn't had warranty on it for 3 years, but last summer it had a recall done for the fuel injectors. They replaced all 6 of them. Now that it's freezing ass cold, when the car sits outside for a few hours and the engine cold soaks, the left bank injectors are pissing fuel out of the o-rings.

Since the allroad is out of warranty, but the injectors were done as a recall item, and it's obvious that it was Audi's fault, will they cover the cost of this?

(and I know the best thing to do is call them, but I didn't know what the problem was until today, and they're closed today. Left a message and will probably talk to them tomorrow)

I can do it myself, but don't really think I should have to, as it never leaked from the injectors before they recalled it.

The work done (warranty or otherwise) should be guaranteed up to a year by the dealership. Like you said, best to talk to them (service manager) tomorrow morning.
