I've never heard of a case against a dealer being heard in DT--only MVDT

I agree.
An official Audi dealer is a representative of the manufacturer but a random used car dealer is not.
If Audi NZ say it a manufacturing fault then they and their retailer are liable.
But the independent dealer cannot predict the car has a faulty crankshaft and cannot be expected to guarantee a used vehicle for more than 50,000 kms and outside of the original Audi warranty under the CGA.

The independent dealer did not manufacture the car and is only a reseller. The service they provided was to sell a roadworthy car.

Car was bought from the main dealer.

the main dealer would be the NZ distributor. Or owned by the distributor. Not a franchise
