Here we go again more problems!!

[phillycivicsi]

I did use the scanner and i erased it came back on but this morning it turned off by itself idk i really like my vw and i think its the best car i have ever owned the materials they used in making the car is really incredible btw i already have 7250 miles on it and its only been a month

[Willdue]

Im telling you, its something else causing it.

[OWENthatsmyname]

ha my car has high miles and runs great.

has needed nothing but routine maintenance.

and this is coming from one of the most problematic audi/vw motors ha.

[ein]

mmmmm.... much hate there is in here..... yyyyyyeeeeeeessssss.

[evomike]

Did you ever think that the first problem also could have fouled out an o2 sensor, if the car was smoking and not running properly I don't see why that couldn't be the case I'm gonna say I wouldn't be suprised if that was the case

[GTI_NY]

we get this thing back from the shop yet or what?

[phillycivicsi]

i just dropped it off today ill find out by 3pm whats goin on

That's how a recall works with ANY car, not just VW



Driveshaft? I don't think you have a driveshaft...you have axles, no driveshaft.

Most manufactuers call them driveshafts, especially European manufactueres.

Take care of the car and it will be good to you. Audis are usually owned by people who have no idea how to work on cars (no offense to any mechanically savvy audi owners on TST). VWs tend to be owned by the same type, therefore alot of maintenance gets missed etc, and the cars reliability suffers down the line. True VW has been known for electrical problems for ages, and basically they have gotten a little better but not much. Problems can usually be solved with google / vortex and some general car knowledge. I really didn't want to make this post because now my car will probably not start!

Just got the car back feels great no more lag when i step on the gas and the tech said it was a o2 sensor in the front which caused the car to react like that

[Willdue]

No hate, just sayin it like it is. I don't think I said even once that euro cars suck, only that they suck reliability wise.

[Willdue]

yeah, since thats the one that went bad its gonna mess up your AFRs. dont sit there and just wait for a problem, lol. Look online, if there is something that is known to be bad and there is a simple fix for it, change it. or you could just wait for it to break... which will most likely lead to other **** breaking. you shouldnt have another problem in a week...

Yea I know, some are great, some aren't. From personal experience I've never owned one, my friend has a 2.0 GLS that treats him great with close to 100k miles, but other people I know (friends, family friends) had nightmares with them, even with proper maintenance. It's like I said, they tend to be higher maintenance, the issues are small but plentiful, I'm so used to jap cars at this point that I'm not used to seeing these things happen. My car has a few quirks as well, random misfire once every few months throws a CEL, car drives fine 2 seconds after and the CEL goes away 2 days after. Nothing is perfect but I see things happen to Euro cars that happen to Jap cars at far fewer intervals.

a design of a jap car is more simple an less complicated compared to a euro car these days

Why did you say the same thing twice? And that's part of the reason, Euro cars tend to be needlessly complicated, no idea why. Maybe they're doing it for reliability, in which case it's not working well.
