Hi
Just got my 3.2 A3 back from dealer.
Previous to this it had started to make a little noise, then a worying noise then a great big juddering ****** noise when accelerating, but only 3rd to 6th
I thought it was the clutch, revs seem to rise with juddering as if clutch not engaging properly
Got went to dealer, dealer has apparently remaped ECU and now it doesn't do it. Dealer says that there has been a problem with the low end torque and the clutch "jumping"
Now have car back, seems normal (although 2 days of driving a 2.0 A4 and I forgot how mental the car is)
Any thoughts??
My gut worry is that they had handicapped the car at low revs so it doesnt do it anymore (but I don't think its noticable) /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
BTW if your dealer is unable to get you one of their cars when you have a problem under warranty, ring the AUDI/RAC people and they will collect you car and hire you a spare whilst it is fixed /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dancing.gif
