mmm have you checked all you connections it seems like a secondary Ignition problem have a look at your
wires make sure there not grounding it self out,
This might help run the car whn its hot whn missing then get a spray bottel with water
and spray you ignition parts the water will cause arcing where the short is

 

Ok, so I took it in to my local mech, it was an ignition control module. Runs great now, ran me $450. OUCH!!! Just FYI for anyone out there. Also said my front right bearing needs replaced...anyone know if that can be done at home? I am thinking of taking the actual bearing to a local shop to have it pressed out and in, but disassembling and reassembling it myself. has anyone done this, and is it a tough job?

 

DO NOT BUY AN AFTERMARKET WARRANTY FROM CONTINENTAL WARRANTY....THEY ARE THIEVES....

 

Many aftermarket warranties have high deducatables and will refuse to pay even if they should.

Check the fine print, be persistent and if they should pay, start making complaints to the BBB, etc.

Audi has had a number of bad ignition control modules all that fail on cyl 2.

 

Where is the ignition control module located on the car?

 

Haven't looked it up, but as I recall it is located on top of the air filter box.
