THE MOMENT I GOT BACK INTO IT REOCCURRED WHEN I WENT OVER A BUMP. I'VE NOTICED MAY COMPLAINS/AUDI TSBS POSTED ABOUT THE REAR END AND THE FRONT END. LUBRICATION REQUIRED OR REMOUNTING/REPLACING THE SHOCK MOUNTS.
3 ISSUES: 1. AFTER INITIAL START-UP, THE CAR JUMPS GEARS AND JOLTS FORWARD FOR THE FIRST 3-5 MINUTES OF OPERATION, ESPECIALLY AT LOWER SPEEDS. THIS HAS BEEN CONSISTENT SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN JANUARY 2015. 2. ALSO, AT HIGHER SPEEDS (65-85MPH), THE CAR SHAKES NOTICEABLY - THE WHEELS/TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED AND REALIGNED MULTIPLE TIMES BUT MECHANICS HAVE SAID IT IS AN INTERNAL TRANSMISSION ISSUE. 3. LASTLY, THE TPMS WILL COME ON EVERY MONTH AND NEED RESETTING DESPITE TIRE PRESSURE BEING INTACT.
