EXTERIOR LIGHTING
2005 AUDI S4 - EXPERIENCING "DIPPED HEADLIGHT" ERROR WHERE THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKER THEN SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE HEADLIGHT CAN BE TURNED BACK ON ONLY IF THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH IS TURNED OFF THEN TURNED BACK ON. THIS CORRECTS THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY, WITH THE HEADLIGHT FLICKERING AGAIN THEN SHUTTING OFF. THE PROBLEM IS PERSISTENT AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE. TOOK MY CAR TO AUDI DEALER BUT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THEREFORE WOULD NOT FIX IT. I'VE READ THOUSANDS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS OF HIS ISSUE ONLINE.

THIS ISSUE CONCERNS MY AUDI 2011 S4, A CAR THAT I TOOK DELIVERY ON IN APRIL, 2011. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR SINCE THE DELIVERY, HOWEVER, IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT HAS CAUSED THIS SPECIFIC FILING. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WITH THE DSG TRANSMISSION. ON OCCASION, THE CAR WILL STRUGGLE AND "BUCK" IN LOW GEARS AT A VERY SLOW SPEED (OR FROMA COMPLETE STOP) UPON ACCELERATION. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN OFTEN BUT IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE TAKING DELIVERY. I HAVE TRIED ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM WITH AUDI CORAL SPRINGS IN THE PAST BUT BECAUSE I CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEY ARE UNABLE TO HELP. CONSEQUENTLY, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO ALWAYS DRIVE THE CAR IN THE MANNER THAT I WOULD LIKE TO. HOWEVER, ON OCTOBER 9, 2012, THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN, ONLY THIS TIME, IT OCCURRED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC. I WAS IN A MERGE LANE, TRAVELING APPROX 3-5 MPH AND WHEN THE OPPORTUNITY AROSE, I ACCELERATED INTO THE TRAFFIC. AT THAT PRECISE MOMENT, THE CAR BUCKED VIOLENTLY (AS IT HAS DONE IN THE PAST) AND I HAD TO LIFT OFF THE THROTTLE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. LET ME EXPRESS THAT I IN NO WAY AM ATTEMPTING TO CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR AUDI. I AM ONLY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY. ITS QUITE CONCEIVABLE THAT WHEN MY CAR HAS THIS TROUBLE WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC THAT I COULD GET HIT FROM BEHIND AS I MUST IMMEDIATELY LIFT OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. *TR
