| Description of the problem | I have an audi tdi that the diesel emissions recall was completed. I brought to the attention of my service advisor - dealer, that when the outside air temp is warm/hot and the vehicle is warmed up, there appears lag in the acceleration then suddenly there is a quick burst of speed where the vehicle catches up to the foot accelerator position. Lifting the foot off the accelerator aids in slowing down but i am concerned that if another family member gets in the car there might be a different understanding of what the vehicle is doing. The dealer service advisor did not note this condition on the list of complaints - things to fix at last service. He did state that all the vw-porshe-audi diesel vehicles are dealing with similar issues and that i just needed to adjust my driving, there is no current resolution for the condition. I feel that there should be a better answer from vw-porshe-audi to resolve this concern with the highly skilled engineers they employ! |
