Description of the problem	I notice after driving my 06 audi a3 for about 30 minutes and with the engine warmed up, the car would jerk violently every time after warm up, and it would sometimes stall. My car is a automatic with dsg. The jerking happens when i applied the gas and it would happen in all the gears. There would be times where i'd be making a turn to cross on coming traffic, i hit the gas and the car would jerk giving me no power and stall in the middle of the street with on coming traffic! Good thing they stopped for me! But what if i'm not so lucky the next time around? What if they don't stop in time? And what if i have my little sister, nieces and nephews in my car when it happens? I took it to the audi dealer and told them about the problem but they found nothing that would cause the jerking and stalling. Twice! I feel like audi knows about the problem but wont admit to it and do nothing. So many vw or audi owners have the same issues. This isn't just about money, is about human lives which should be more valued than money to audi.
