A4 Audi B6 Wont Engage Manual Clutch Transmission

Also the B7 S4 pressure plates have more clamping force then the B6 S4 pressure plates. Thus the B6 S4 and B7 S4 clutch components do not mix and match so that is why I say that you need to get all B7 S4 parts. Think of it as an upgrade if you have a B6 S4! Parts Required: 1.

A4 Audi B6 Won't Engage Manual Clutch Transmission Repair

1. We were stuck in traffic on an incline for a period of approximately 5 to 10 minutes slowly approaching the caldecott tunnel (cal. Highway 24-east bound) which was backed up. I was required to push our manual clutch in an out repeatedly during the backup, but was very careful not to 'ride' the clutch. 2. Twice in a period of 12 months, the special 'dual clutch' flywheel and clutch assembly began to catch fire. In the first instance, the car became inoperative and had to be towed. In the second instance I was able to get off the freeway to prevent further damage and danger, but the car was again inoperative. It is undoubtedly the defective flywheel design which is catching fire since the clutch in the first instance had just been replaced. 3. In both instances within the 12-month period, the entire flywheel and clutch system had to be replaced even though the clutch was still operative. The expense was approximately $3000 for each repair since Audi claimed this was 'driver error. ' (the repair parts are available. ) this is a preposterous claim since I have been driving manual transmission vehicles successfully for 40+ years without having similar problems as experienced with the fire-prone Audi flywheel. Similar complaints and experiences are reported on the internet all over the country on various forums. All such reports detail a similar denial of responsibility by Audi.

Manual Transmission problem of the 2003 Audi A4 2

The coil pack on the vehicle was damaged (shaking upon acceleration). After researching the internet, I found that 2001, 2002 and beginning of 2003 Audi A4s has been recalled for this part. When I called Audi America, they said my VIN number was not included in this recall. The dealership replaced the coil pack at a cost of over $500.

Manual Transmission problem of the 1997 Audi A4 4

Operation of this A4 configuration at speeds lower than 8 m. P. H. Requires either that the operator lug the engine (I. E. , run at less than the recommended 1500 r. P. M. In first gear) or not close the clutch completely. This design defect has lead to excessive clutch wear, requiring two replacements in less than 52,000 miles and two incidents of clutch overheating, with smoke. A potential fire hazard exists if the vehicle is operated at less than 4 m. P. H. For an extended period (e. G. , more than 30 minutes) as may be expected in certain metropolitan traffic jams. The clutch design is also unsuitable for dynamic braking, showing excessive wear, thereby contributing to premature failure and the fire hazard. The A4 is otherwise a very fine automobile. The manufacturer should correct this design defect ASAP through provision of a low gear, six-speed option, adjustment of ratios or similar remedy.
