Hello all
I am new to this forum, as have recently puchased a 1998 A8 2.8 petrol.
Lovely car, well pleased for the money - wondering 2 things
It's throttle pedal pad has broken off, where would be the best place to get one from thats not an Audi main dealer price
Secondly when creeping along at 40mph ish, with very llittle throttle input, the car seems to 'hunt' a bit - like a juddering but not a mechanical judder. Hard to explain other than imagine creeping along in traffic in an older car, in first, and it tends to leap about abit - very slightly - leap is a harsh term for what it actually does.. almost like a small wheel imbalance, but I don't think it is that as if I apply throttle or am accelerating everything is nice and smooth, on or off throttle is all good, resting my foot on the throttle to creep along seems a little 'rough' to me, like a badly idling engine.
any pointers welcome!
Thanks
