2018 RS3 Throttle sticking - help

[Glynne]

Hello,

My 2018 RS3 Throttle is sticking at about 5500 RPM. That is the throttle sticks to the floor and will not release. I have to hook my foot under it. Very scary indeed.

Has anyone else had a similar problem? Or can anyone give me any advice?


Thanks
Glynne

Get it straight into Audi.

Yes I will have to, but I've never heard anyone else complain of the problem.

I remember years ago the throttle sticking full on with my brothers old 205 GTI. But I thought it was all fly by wire these days...is it catching on some trim?!

I've had this on a motorbike before where the carb had frozen up. Thank **** there was a killswitch. Scared the life out of me.

Get it to Audi ASAP and let us know of the findings!
