problem #1

Oct 152003

A3 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 2,800 miles
Car will totally fail to accelerate. Pressing the gas to the floor results in almost no movement. This happens after hitting the brakes and then the gas, usually during routing traffic or an avoidance maneuver. This will get someone (me) killed.
