A6 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles
I drive a 1997, A6 Audi quattro station wagon. Over the past 2 winters, I have had 2 very similar incidents. On extremely cold mornings while driving into work the car accelerated on its own. Each time I had to pull off the road, throw the car into neutral and shut to car off.
