Description of the problem	Timing chain issue that caused it to jump, damaging the cylinder heads and valves. As i was proceeding to stop at at a light, the front end of the car began to shake and the engine seemed off. At a full stop, the engine sputtered again and then proceeded to die. The car wouldn't start, so i could not proceed through the intersection. Audi will not cover any damage that was caused and is indicating they are not responsible for the issues with the timing chains. I've searched online and found many other lawsuits where this type of issue has been covered from audi.
