Hi, Firstly, i've got to say what a brilliant forum! Been reading this forum for ages but this is my first post, so be easy!
I'm having huge problems with my A3 SB 2.0 TDI DSG, I hope some one will be able to shed some light on it....
I'm getting this horrible shuddering/juddering (like the engine's about to stall) when I'm in 5th or 6th gear. The revs have to be low, say 40mph in 5th or 6th gear and then when I use some low to medium acceleration the car jumps around like crazy! It sounds like the engine mounts are about to be ripped off! The problem disappears if you put your foot down and accelerate hard. A constant vibration can also be felt when at high speed...like 80mph. Its like the car's stuttering but very minutely. All this only happens once the engine has warmed up.
Gone to an Audi specialist....stuck it on VAG-COM....no problems thrown up, the guy spent the day looking at the car and was stumped! Also taken it to 2 other garages with no answers.
I don't particularly fancy getting robbed up by Audi at the moment so any help will be much appreciated!!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
