problem #1

A6 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,200 miles
1997 Audi A6 unintended acceleration - stuck throttle. Only way to stop car from moving was to turn off ignition. Audi dealer (suds - normal, Illinois) found ice in throttle housing and was familiar with problem on other like-model Audi. If I did not have presence of mind to turn off engine I would have run into cross traffic on busy six lane highway.
