2002 A4 1.8T - engine cut-out
Hi,
My Audi 2002 A4 1.8T has an intermittent fault where the engine will stop (cut-out) at low speeds - between 10-15 MPH. No warning lights are displayed... it doesn't misfire... it just cuts-out. All I need to do is restart the engine, and carry on. I have noticed the ESP light stays illuminated for up to one minute, after the restart. More worrying is that it cut-out at 30+ MPH the other day, which could be dangerous - no power steering/brakes! Can anyone through any light on the problem. Thanks Jimbo.

Yes get the dealer to check it out....
It's still under the 3 year warranty ? I had a niggly problem on my multitronic that they said was no fault and just before the warranty ran out so did the gearbox.
