Hey all,
First post!
I have a 2016 S3, roughly 25k miles on it. Been noticing gas pedal vibration for few months now. It only seems to occur around speeds of 70-75mph. The vibration is only felt in the driver seat and not noticeable in other seats. It's like a repetitive humming/vibration felt in the gas pedal.
I have stock tires/wheels on it. I swap them for winters the past 2 seasons, so they only have about 10-12k miles on them. Tread is fine. Audi mechanics feel the vibration as well. Don't think they know how to fix it, as they suggested getting new tires since there seems to be some wheel hop. I'm definitely not getting new tires as they have plenty of tread left. We do have tons of pot holes in many of our city streets due to harsh winters, so it's possible I need new bearings? I do occasionally drive it aggressively, but that is mostly done on the highway with no noticeable slippage.
Any thoughts or suggestions? I did some research before and didn't really find any distinctive answers. I did see that it was a common Audi A3/S3 and VW platform issue, but that seemed to occur at certain RPM's, which is not the case for my car.
