BALANCE AND ALIGNMENT WITHIN SPEC PER AUDI DEALERSHIP. (2) EXTREMELY NOISY. UNEVEN WEAR ACROSS EACH TIRE. UNEVEN WEAR TIRE TO TIRE. POOR WEAR AT 10,000 MI (3) SEARS IS THE PIRELLI DEALER IN THIS AREA AND IS THE PARTY RESPONSIBLE FOR TIRE ADJUSTMENTS. THEY (RYAN) STATE THE TIRES ARE WEARING POORLY AND UNEVENLY. THEY CAN'T GET PIRELLI TO PRE-AUTHORIZE THE REPLACEMENTS. IF THEY REPLACE THE TIRES BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY'RE DEFECTIVE, AND PIRELLI BELIEVES THE TIRES ARE NOT DEFECTIVE, SEARS WON'T BE REIMBURSED FOR THE REPLACEMENTS. IT'S REPORTED THAT PIRELLI IS VERY RESISTANT TO REIMBURSEMENT FOR TIRE ADJUSTMENTS. THIS LEAVES THE SEARS IN THE AWKWARD POSITION OF BEING UNABLE TO PROPERLY SERVICE PIRELLI TIRES. I'VE CONTACTED PIRELLI CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND THEY ARE UNWILLING TO EXTEND ANY CONSIDERATION OF MY CLAIM. *JB.Mileage was 8213 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WAUKD98P76A.

AUDI A3 2007 Safety Review #10276420

AUDI A3 2007 car safety problem was reported on July 10, 2009.AUDI A3 2007, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . I HAVE AN '07 AUDI A3 2.0TDI SPORTBACK WTIH THE DSG TRANSMISSION. I DON'T KNOW IF I AM QUALIFIED TO FILL UP THIS FORM SINCE MY CAR IS OVERSEAS (IN THE PHILIPPINES). I JUST WANT TO SHARE MY TROUBLES WITH MY AUDI'S DSG TRANSMISSION. WHEN I HAD ABOUT 18,000KM IN THE CLOCK, MY DSG STARTED TO MAKE SOME GRINDING NOISE AND DIFFICULTY IN SHIFTING GEARS. I BROUGHT IT TO MY GARAGE TO HAVE MY DSG INSPECTED. THE MECHANICS FOUND OUT THAT THE CIRCLIP HOLDING THE CLUTCH PACK OF THE DSG FLEW OFF. THE FIX WAS DONE BY REPLACING THE CIRCLIP OF THE CLUTCH PACK. THE CAR THEN WENT FINE. FASTFORWARD TO 2 NIGHTS AGO (JULY 10TH OR ABOUT ONLY 1,500KM LATER), MY DSG'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STARTED SHOWING MY THE "FLASH OF DEATH" WHEREIN THE "PRND" LIGHTS KEPT ON FLASHING ACCOMPANIED BY DIFFICULTY IN CHANGING GEARS! I AM EXPERIENCING SUDDEN LURCHING ON FIRST GEAR AND THE REVERSE GEAR TOTALLY DOESNT ENGAGE ANYMORE!!! I HAVE MY OWN DIAGNOSTIC TOOL (VAG-COM FROMROSS-TECH) AND IT TELLS ME THIS "PRESSURE CONTROL VALVE 2 (N216): OPEN OR SHORT TO PLUS". I HAVE DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH AND MY MECHANICS/GARAGE AND I HAVE COME TO A CONCLUSION THAT THE PROBLEM IS A FAILED MECHATRONICS MODULE ON MY AUDI'S DSG TRANSMISSION..Mileage was 19800 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WAUZZZ8P96A. Audi A3 2007 problem was reported in QUEZON CITY, 00. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 30 mph.

MY CAR WAS OKAY FOR THE FIRST YEAR OR SO THAT I OWNED IT. STARTING ABOUT THE BEGINNING OF 2009, MY DSG TRANSMISSION STARTED ACTING FUNNY. WHEN I WOULD LET OFF OF THE BRAKE, THE CAR WOULD SIT FOR A SPLIT SECOND AND THEN JUMP FORWARD QUICKLY AS IF I HAD BLURPED THE THROTTLE. SOMETIMES IT DOES IT TWICE BEFORE ROLLING SMOOTHLY. IT FEELS LIKE THE CLUTCH IS ENGAGING TOO STRONGLY AND THEN LETTING OFF. ALSO, WHEN COMING TO A STOP, THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS LIKE IT HOLDS ON TO THE GEAR A LITTLE TOO LONG AND MAKES MY CAR JUMP FORWARD RIGHT BEFORE A STOP. IT DOES THIS IS REVERSE ALSO. IT HAS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE PARKING AND ALSO HAS CAUSED ME TO GO TOO FAR INTO THE CROSSWALK AT A STOP LIGHT. IT DOES THIS ALL OF THE TIME, NOT JUST WHEN THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION IS COLD. *TR.Mileage was 30000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WAUHF78P07A.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS VERY HARD SHIFTING ON OCCASION. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY. ALSO AT TIMES THE TRANSMISSION WILL GET STUCK IN BETWEEN SHIFTS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT IS LIKE THE CAR IS IN NEUTRAL. IT HAS A LOSS OF POWER FOR 10- 20 SECONDS. THIS ISSUE IS VERY CONCERNING AS THERE IS NO POWER AT ALL. I AM WORRIED THAT AT SOME POINT IT MAY STAY THIS WAY LONGER, DISABLING THE CAR COMPLETELY. I NOW ALSO HAVE AN EXTREMELY LOUD RATTLE COMING FOR THE TRANSMISSION AREA. I BELIEVE THE HARD SHIFTING HAS CAUSED THE FLYWHEEL TO START FAILING. *TR.Mileage was 70000 miles.
