Power Train problem #1

Sos emergency call malfunction. Besides transmission or engine mounting shakes on idle positions car still 6800 miles.

Power Train problem #2

While travelling at highway speeds in the passing lane, a warning appeared “transmission malfunction! safely stop vehicle” at which point the vehicle acceleration suddenly stopped. Fortunately despite the heavy and fast traffic I was able to get to the side of the road, but the vehicle would not move. The deslership noted this was part of technical bulletin 2064312/7 that caused this issue. Fortunately the ohio highway patrol came to keep me safe until the tow truck arrived. This is an extremely dangerous flaw that could have led to a serious accident. I urge you to investigate and order a recall for this potentially fatal issue.

Power Train problem #3

Total engine failure at ~13. 5k miles. 2 out of 4 cylinders and pistons failed, found damage on cylinder walls. Cylinder pressure too high. Failed cylinder leak down test and pressure test. Metal shavings found in oil filter and housing.

Power Train problem #4

Bought it new in July 2023. Have done 4300 miles. Urban roads. Cv joint front is leaking. I understand 2019/2020 had the same issues. Reporting it for your records. Will now have to go to the Audi dealers if they will cover it.

Power Train problem #5

Brand new vehicle with less than 1000 miles. Whenever I take an exit from highyway vehicle's rear wheel slips and shakes. It shakes and slips when I change lanes in a curvy highway such as hardy toll road in houston. Happened several times. I am taking it to the dealer this week to have it checked out. I suspect that a recall may be needed here!.
