THE EXCESSIVE HIGH IDLE SPEED AFTER WARM UP IN GEAR OF 800-850 RPM IS EXCESSIVE. THIS HIGH IDLE SPEED MAKES CONTROLLING THE CAR IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC DIFFICULT DUE TO THE HIGH BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE TO KEEP THE CAR FROM MOVING. THE MOST DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCE WAS HAVING THREE TIRES ON ICE AND ONE ON DRY PAVEMENT. THE QUATTRO DRIVE TRANSFERRED ALL THE POWER TO THE ONE TIRE THAT HAD TRACTION. I WAS UNABLE TO HOLD THE CAR AND BUMPED THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. NO DAMAGE. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN TO THE DEALER TWICE TO HAVE THIS CORRECTED AND I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT SINCE MODEL YEAR 2008 THE IDLE SPEED IS NOT ADJUSTABLE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE 2007 AUDI WAS HIT ON A HIGH SPEED COLLISION AFTER OTHER VEHICLE RAN A RED LIGHT AND NO AIR BAGS WHERE DEPLOID BY THE AUDI Q7 AFTER MASSIVE FRONT AND SIDE COLLISION FROM OTHER VEHICLE AT 50 MPH . NOT VERY HAPPY OF THE SAFETY PROBLEM THAT THIS LUXURY 2007 AUDI Q7 VEHICLE HAS BY NOT DEPLOYING THE FRONT AND SIDE AIRBAGS CAUSING PERSONAL INJURY TO MY FAMILY DURING THE ACCIDENT. POLICE AND FIRE RESCUE IN THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT WERE VERY CONCERN WITH THE AUDI Q7 FAILURE OF THE SAFETY AIRBAGS AND SUGGESTED TO REPORT IT TO AUDI USA FOR EVALUATION OR POSABLE RECALL. *TT
