| 2002 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | THIS CAR HAS BEEN GREAT TO ME. ASIDE FROM A FUEL PUMP GOING, JUST RECENTLY I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE CAR DIED. THE EPC LIGHT ON THE DASH POPPED UP AND LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I ATTEMPTED TO START THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE CALLING AAA (15-20 MIN) WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH AAA I ATTEMPTED TO START THE CAR AGAIN AND IT FIRED RIGHT UP. THINKING IT WAS JUST A ONE TIME ISSUE I GOT BACK ON THE FREEWAY WHERE 10 MILE OR SO LATER SAME THE SAME THING HAPPENED. ANOTHER 20 MIN OF WAITING BEFORE IT CRANKED AGAIN AT THIS POINT I WAS IN A B AD AREA WITH MY FAMILY AND EVERYONE WAS GETTING NERVOUS. AFTER IT STARTED THE EPC LIGHT STAYED ON THIS TIME AND I EXPERIENCED LOSS OF POWER AND THE CAR COUGHED AND STUMBLED TERRIBLY WHEN I NEEDED IT MOST. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT HOME AND LET THE CAR SIT FOR A DAY. HOPED IN AND IT CRANKED RIGHT UP. NO PROBLEMS 15 MILES LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AFTER TALKING WITH OTHER VALUED AUDI OWNERS AND LOOKING OVER THE AUDI OWNER FORUMS. I HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A QUITE COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE AUDI ACROSS THE RANGE OF THERE A SERIES FROM 1997-2011. PLEASE HELP! *TR |
