UNEXPECTED BRAKING. I AT ONCE PULLED OFF THE ROAD INTO A DRIVEWAY AND ATTEMPTED TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK BUT WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT OUT OF DRIVE. I EVENTUALLY WAS ABLE TO STOP THE ENGINE WITH THE SHIFTER STILL IN DRIVE. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER 3 DAYS AT THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THAT DIAGNOSTIC TESTS DID NOT REVEAL ANY PROBLEM AND THAT THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RETURNED TO ME AND I AM AWAITING FURTHER COMMUNICATION FROM AUDI AND/OR RECURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS BEEN THE SECOND PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST PROBLEM OCCURRED ON THE WAY HOME AFTER PURCHASE.. WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ASKED TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER UNDERGOING DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE AIR INTAKE MANIFOLD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *TR
