Visibility · reported Feb 9, 2004
While driving in inclement weather windshield wipers will not clear off the snow on the front windshield. Dealer indicated that it was a manufacturing design flaw, and there was no solution to the problem.
Engine and Engine Cooling · reported Sep 12, 2003
Out of control experience due to unwanted acceleration of vehicle. The vehicle accelerated when the gas pedal was released, the engine revved past the redline, and the vehicle did not slow down when the brakes were engaged and we almost did not make the turn into our neighborhood. Even when we put the vehicle in neutral,the engine did not stop revving. We checked to make sure the cruise control was not on and tried the engine again, only to have the engine rev through the redline when only the brake pedal (And not the gas) was engaged. We turned the car off and pushed it to a safe location…
Tires · reported Dec 30, 2002
I AM adding to a previous complaint [odi 768857 - ref 704187] reporting 2 goodyear side wall tire failures. I have now experienced a 3rd side wall bubble and failure. Again there is no rim damage and proper tire pressures have been maintained. The car has not been operated off road. I'm caught between audi which takes no responsibility for the tires on their cars and goodyear. I have never had tire failures on any of the other 5 cars we own and continue to be sure that this must be a common problem caused by weak side walls.
Power Train · reported Nov 13, 2002
Auto transmission lags up to 1 second in responding when accelerator pedal is depressed. This has caused a few close calls when tring to make turns into traffic. Trans also lags when shifting from reverse into drive. Engine revs but drivetrain does not catch. Then car takes off with a jolt. Also, experiencing a vibration from car when driving even after checking brake rotors, wheel balance and alignment. Seems to come and go. Could be transmission related. Dt
Tires · reported Oct 24, 2002
We have had 2 separate side wall failures on the front tires. The first was in less than 10,000 miles and the second was on a new tire in less than 5,000 miles on a new replacement. Neither failure showed any evidence of rim damage or other external event. We are caught between audi and goodyear each of which want us to call the other party. This appears to be a systemic problem related to the audi tt tire recall. Dt
