Default RE: Slow throttle response..very frustrating!!!

auditec79,

Thanks for your respones .I checked brake light switch in vagcom as you instructed and the light in the secondrow came on first before the other light as you instructed.I musthave installed it correctly.

Tell me something....I am thinking of selling my Audi based on the negative from all the dealers.I am finding out that dealers would not prefer to take them as trades. Whats up with that??? Do they all have ahigh risk break down/repair failure?? You probably see all the problems with them...are they all that bad and expensive when they get close to 100,00 miles?

Thanks for your advice

Hmm, slow throttle response and bad fuel economy... Maybe your Torque Converter is going out. Check for tansmission codes using vag-com

That is a possibility,but no codes in vagcom for transmission, and not sure how to check without spending the big bucks.
I want to experience the possibility to change the code,but so far no one in the forum has replied to my tranmission code post ,lots of lookers.

Thanks for your reply

No your switch is broken if the second detent activated before the first one, you have a broken switch, replace it.
As for people not wanting to take them in for trades is because the mechanics don't know how to work on them. When i used to work at PEP Boys back in the day people used to crap their pants when the four rings of hell rolled up! Audi's are some of the hardest cars to work on besides SAAB.

Good info Auditech.

However, I won't be surprised if the entire problem is because of K&N. During my two weeks with that filter, it played nasty with my gas consumption, performance etc. Though, I never washed the oil off it, like you did. So, I changed it back to the regular one, and it solved everything.
