Consumer Description

THE CAR WOULD NOT START WHEN I WENT TO PULL OUT OF GARAGE. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. ON THE 8TH ATTEMPT IT STARTED AND I DRIVE IT TO WORK. IT FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT WHEN I STOPPED OR SLOWED DOWN. I PUT THE KEY IN IGNITION IT WOULD GO ON BUT NOT START AND TURN OFF. THE EPC LIGHT WENT ON. THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED HOWEVER IT STILL FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT WHEN I AM IN PRO OR STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR WHEN I SLOW DOWN UNDER 10 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE AUDI DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TIMING CHAIN WHICH IS A 2600.00 REPAIR.
