Consumer Description

1/10/2003--TOOK THE CAR IN TO HAVE IT CHECKED BECAUSE OF A ROUGH IDLE AND TROUBLE STARTING. THE DEALER FOUND NO INITIAL PROBLEMS. 2/5/2003--RECEIVED NOTICE IN THE MAIL FROM AUDI CONCERNING THE POSSIBILITY OF BAD COIL PACKS ON 2002 A4'S. 2/7/2003--THE CAR STALLED ON US AT NIGHT, IN THE RAIN, IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. IT TOOK ME AT LEAST A MINUTE TO GET IT RESTARTED--THAT MAY NOT SOUND LIKE MUCH, BUT YOU SHOULD TRY TURNING OFF YOUR CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND WAIT 60 SECONDS BEFORE RESTARTING & TAKING OFF. SEE HOW MAY PEOPLE START HONKING AND/OR ALMOST HIT YOU BEFORE YOU MOVE.... 2/8-2/11/03--THE DEALER CHECKS THE CAR OVER. THEY SAY THE COIL PACKS ARE FINE, BUT THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR WAS BAD, SO THEY REPLACED IT. I DON'T BELIEVE THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM, SINCE THE CAR STILL IDLES ROUGH, AND STILL HAS TROUBLE STARTING. LUCKILY, IT HASN'T DIED ON US AGAIN (YET). *NLM
