What owners wrote
A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.
This car hesitates upon acceleration, requiring me to re-apply the throttle in order have "normal accleration." I have complained to the dealership for over 1 year about this problem. I am afraid to drive the vehicle due to my being handicapped; if I get hit, I may die due to my spinal cord disease.
Failure of fuel gauge left me, me wife and two children on the side of the interstate in atlanta, ga. Fuel level sending unit was replaced in recall notice in dec, 2001. The replacement part failed.
2001 audi a6 allroad. After the car sits for a period of 5+day undriven, the airbag suspension of this car leaks, lending the car undriveable unless the power system from the car can auto level the vehicle again. No fault codes are shown in the ECU. II have pictures of the vehicle with the suspension not level. Dangerous! The dealership cannot recreate this occurance which has been photographed on more than one occasion.
2001 audi a6 allroad has had a brake/throttle lag issue since it was purchased. The car can be extremely dangerous to drive. My wife was driving the allroad and she told me that she was almost hit by an oncoming vehicle when the car did not "go" as she expected it too, based on her throttle inputs. At another intersection she lifted her foot off of the gas, reapplied the gas and this time the car went so fast that she almost hit the car in front of her at the upcoming intersection.
