tune, timing, temp sensor, could be a bunch of stuff.
it's not a problem that Audi invented.

7-year-old car, you don't say how many miles...
could be normal wear and tear and wouldn't be unusual for Audis
or many other makes either. Could be due to pothole or curb hit.
Any driver could cause that on any car.

again, not an Audi-only problem. True it is one that "we" are fairly

same. could be most anything. bad gas, tune, timing, tons of other
stuff
not necessarily audi-specific

here's one that is directly related to design, hence audi-specific
HOWEVER, it could be related to other issues mentioned above.
get rid of the stalling, the on/off engine light, etc. and it'll surely

electrics aren't audis strong point, but they're far from alone in this
area. this could be nothing more than a dirty contact

some bulbs and improve this.

subjective, matter of taste, Audi's vs. yers. also probably due to

not busting yer chops. just callin it like I see it.
