RE: to the best Audi techs

Sounds like the same problem that my '88 80 has. Unfortunately it has been
to 3 mechanics and is currently at its fourth at the moment. The good news
is the tech guy reckons he will let us know tomorrow what the problem is, so
if he fixes it I will let you know. BTW does it only do it when the engine
is warm, because that it the only time when my car does it. Other than that
the symptoms are the same.
