3 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2003

Engine coil?? my A4 has now been towed four times do to misfiring. They have replaced the engine coil now four times but last saurday was the one that broke the camels back. When your on the toll in rush hour at 65 miles an hour with no shoulder its usually a bad thing when your car stalls out and begins to shake violently. Out at 10,000-18,000-20,000-and now it is in a shop why I drive a rented accord(it gets better they tell me that the part is on back order-maybe in a couple days? did somebody say lemon-law.

Consumer stated that the coil packs failed, consumer was informed the parts were on back order.

5 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 01/04/2003

The vehicle has been in the shop 8 times for misfiring of the fuel injectors. Not one attempt has been successful at solving the problem. On one occasion, the car accelerated by itself. On another, the engine continued to run after the key was removed from the car. On another, the car reprogrammed the keys and would not allow me to start the car. On two occasions the car's engine stopped while putting the car into reverse. Audi in miami, FL and in alexandria, va have failed to find the cause of these problems and have "never heard" of such complaints. Despite these problems, Audi consumer relations refuses to replace the car and therefore, I am forced to file under florida lemon law. This is a disgrace on behalf of Audi and because of these problems and Audi on the corporate level, I would never buy another Audi nor recommend it to anybody else.
