De la nada el carro brinco la velocidad de 65 millas a 25 estuvimos a punto de tener un accidente, I reported the issues on 01/04/2010 to the audi company at the time of the incident they said there was no recalls, the car behind almost hit us and since them the car jumps every five minutes from normal speed to slow speed less than 30 miles in the freeway when the speed supposed to be 65 miles. I had other incidents driving in my way to my job where I need to drive 25 minutes in the freeway.
Fuel/Propulsion System · at 125,430 miles · reported Dec 12, 2012
I took my audi 2001 allroad quattro 2.7t to the dealership to fix the check engine light problem. I was told there is a leak on the valves on top of the gas tank. I AM aware there was a recall on that model regarding the gas tank.
Power Train · reported May 28, 2002
Transmission or turbos lags after stopping-causing a delay in accelleration-almost hit and rear ended several times. No accident yet but some adjustment in the transmission or chip should be made by audi on all of these cars- check out audi forums for 60 or more experiencing this same event.
Power Train · reported May 24, 2002
I have noticed significant hesitation when I launch the car from a stop. When the car is completely stopped, and I step on the gas pedal, a lag of 1-3 seconds is observed. Within this time range, the car just idles as-is without moving forward. The same problem happens when I attempt to accelerate from 10-30. I consider this to be a safety hazard for myself and other people on the road.
