Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone can shed some light on my problems.
My 2009 S5 which has done 72k, has developed a strange jerking after coming to temperature. It has the 7 speed S-Tronic box.
There are two main issues:
Firstly, after driving through stop/start traffic the car develops a jerk after coming to a full stop. This is not evident when the car is cold and less so if I’m doing a faster, more continuous cruise. The jerk relates to the revs dropping for a moment, like it might stall. Weird.
Secondly, when pulling off, the car jerks like I’m driving a manual and I don’t know how to use the clutch - highly irritating and frankly it’s ruining the driving experience. It like it can’t apply the power correctly.
like I said, this is highly irritating and most advise I’ve received is to sell it now.
I must add, the car was recently serviced and the gearbox oil changed. My log book has no evidence of this ever being done, butthe problem existed before the service and I think it’s got worse since.
At speed in the cruise, the car drives beautifully but this is getting so bad now that I really dont know what else to do!!
All ideas are very much welcome!
Thank you
