I?VE A 92 AUDI 100 CS QUATRO, VIN [XXX]. IT APPEARS THAT NHTSA RECALL ID 97172000 WOULD COVER THIS CAR, AS THE VIN NUMBER IS IN THE RANGE OF APPLICABLE VEHICLES. AS I WRITE THIS, THE DEALER IS REPLACING THIS PART, THE AIRBAG CONTROLLER, BECAUSE THE DIAGNOSTICS HAS INDICATED THAT IT HAS FAILED. THIS APPEARS TO FIT WITH THIS RECALL. HOWEVER, WHEN I TALK TO THE DEALER (CHECKERED FLAG, VIRGINIA BEACH, VA) AND THE AUDI SERVICE LINE THEY SAY THAT THIS RECALL DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS VEHICLE. BUT THEY CANNOT TELL ME WHY. THEY PLUG IT INTO THE COMPUTER AND IT SAYS IT DOESN'T APPLY. NOBODY CAN TELL ME IF THE RECALL WAS APPLIED.

EITHER THE RECALL IS NOT BEING HONORED OR THE RECALL HAS ALREADY BEEN APPLIED AND NOBODY IN THE AUDI CAN CONFIRM THAT IT HAS BEEN APPLIED. I'VE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR A YEAR.

AUDI 100 1992 Safety Review #10146994
AUDI 100 1992 car safety problem was reported on Dec 05, 2005.AUDI 100 1992, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS . RECENTLY PURCHASE A USED 1992 AUDI 100 CS WAGON. WHEN I GOT IT HOME AND IN THE GARAGE, THERE WAS A TERRIBLE GASOLINE ODOR. I NOTICED THE PUDDLE ON THE FLOOR, AND GOT UNDER THE CAR TO CHECK IT OUT. SURE ENOUGH, THERE WAS GAS LEAKING FROM THE FUEL LINES IN MULTIPLE PLACES FROM THE TANK TO THE ENGINE BAY. ALL OF THE LINES ARE SEVERELY RUSTED, TO THE POINT THAT IT HAS SPRUNG LEAKS. IN CHECKING AUDI ONLINE FORUMS, IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM, WITH MOST PEOPLE SPLICING IN SECTIONS OF HOSE TO KEEP THEIR CARS RUNNING WITHOUT HAVING A PERSISTENT GAS LEAK. I WAS SUPRISED TO SEE THAT THE ONLY FUEL LINE RECALL ON THESE UNITS WAS 1993 AND 1994 MODELS. LUCKILY, I CAUGHT THIS THING BEFORE THEIR WAS AN IGNITION SOURCE TO CAUSE A FIRE. CURRENTLY, I AM PLANNING ON USING THE EVER POPULAR TUBE SPLICE UNTIL I DECIDE IF I WILL BEND MYSELF A NEW SET OF LINES SINCE REPLACEMENTS SEEM TO BE HARD TO COME BY. *NM.Mileage was 89000 miles.

AUDI 100 1992 car safety problem was reported on Jan 05, 2006.AUDI 100 1992, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS . THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP TO COMPLAINT 10146994 FILED ON 1-05-06. IT CONCERNS THE RUSTED OUT FUEL LINES ON MY 100CS WAGON FROM AUDI. I HAVE STARTED TO TEAR DOWN TO REPLACE THE LINES, AND SEE WHERE THE MAIN ISSUE SEEMS TO BE. AT ALL OF THE MOUNTING POINTS FOR THE FUEL LINES ON THE UNDERBODY FROM THE FUEL TANK TO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, THE LINES HAVE RUSTED THROUGH. THERE WERE ACTUALLY 8 LEAKS INSTEAD OF THE THREE THAT I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT WERE PRESENT. DUE TO THE RUBBER MOUNTS BEING COMPRESSED AROUND THE LINES, NOT ALL OF THEM SHOWED THE LEAKS UNTIL THE MOUNTING BRACKETS WERE REMOVED. IT APPEARS THAT THE RUBBER MOUNTS THAT ARE USED HOLD WATER ETC. ALLOWING THE FUEL LINES TO BE PRONE TO RUST THROUGH IN THESE AREAS. IN CHECKING ONLINE FORUMS, IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM WITH PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS AS WELL. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS OF PEOPLE REPLACING RUSTED FUEL LINES ON AUDI MODELS. I HAVE NOT MADE A BIG ISSUE OF IT WITH AUDI AS OF YET, ONLY CONTACTED THEM TO THE POINT THAT THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE AS A RECALL. I AM SURPRISED THAT THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS ACTION ON THIS AS IT CREATES A FUEL LEAK THAT CAN BE A SOURCE OF FIRE. MY GUESS IS THAT IF THESE LEAKS WERE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHERE AN EASIER IGNITION SOURCE COULD BE FOUND, THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A BIG FIRE ISSUE AND RECALLED. *NM.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 89000 miles.

FOUND THE PROBLEM AND AM POSTING IT HERE. THIS CAN KILL SOMEONE. I HOPE NHTSA DOES SOMETHING. AUDI USA WILL NOT. SEE BELOW: FOUND THE PROBLEM. MANGLED PLASTIC DEBRIS IN THE THROTTLE BODY THAT WOULD HANG UP THE PLATE INTERMITTENTLY. SHAME ON ME FOR CALLING IT ACCELERATION WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY A STUCK THROTTLE. WHAT I LEARNED IS THAT THE SMALL BRIEF THROTTLE STABS YOU DO TO KEEP GOING UPHILL OR IN TRAFFIC CAN RESULT IN VERY HIGH RPMS IF THE THROTTLE STICKS AT MAX EXCURSION. IT MAKES YOU THINK THE ENGINE IS ACCELERATING. SHAME ON AUDI FOR NEVER EXAMINING THE THROTTLE BODY AND IGNORING THE PROBLEM POSED BY THE DISINTEGRATING PLASTIC NECK ON THE VALVE I MENTIONED IN EARLIER POSTS. THE DISINTEGRATION OF THAT THIN PLASTIC NECK APPARENTLY CAN RESULT IN SIMULTANEOUS STUCK THROTTLE (FROM DEBRIS GETTING SUCKED INTO THROTTLE BODY AND PREVENTING THE THROTTLE PLATE FROM RETURNING TO IDLE POSITION) AND LOSS OF BRAKE BOOST THROUGH THE VACUUM LEAK CAUSED BY THE BROKEN NECK. BTW, THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE CAR ON THE LAST RUNAWAY (ABOUT 5500 RPM), JUST GOT IT DOWN TO ABOUT 20 MPH EVEN WHEN I WAS STANDING ON THEM, HAD TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL (WHICH TOOK THE RPMS TO REDLINE AND LIMITER) AND TURN OFF THE KEY.
