| Driving an 2005 audi a4 quattro on a busy interstate highway, the car began to sputter and experience acceleration surging and deceleration. i was able to exit the roadway and had vehicle towed to dealer, eee motors in springfield virginia. eee motors identified a fuel system problem, had vehicle shipped to audi of alexandria for further diagnosis and repair. audi dealer reported fuel pump needed replacement as well as a low pressure fuel sensor. appears to be same problem as that which resulted in the 2004 audi a4 fuel pump safety recall. please recall this model year before same safety problem occurs for 2005. *tr | |||

| My 2005 audi a4 3.0 quattro has 42,000 miles. while on vacation, 300 miles from my home traveling on pch in california the vehicle lost all power. while i was going up a short hill, the vehicle shifted erratically, i looked to see the rpm's and they fell to zero. i immediately pulled to the side of the road and tried to re-start the car. the car wouldn't turn over. i contacted aaa and was towed to a small town which we had passed 10 miles earlier. the shop diagnosed the issue as a fuel pump failure, being no pressure and full voltage to the fuel pump. $818 later, two days and over $300 in rental car fees, hotel and other expenses, my a4 was fixed. once researching on line, there was a recall in january 2006 for all 2003 model year a4, a6 and passats that had faulty fuel pumps. i had the exact symptoms that these 2003 owners experienced, sudden loss of power. i have contacted audi customer care and they state that since my vehicle's vin number was not part of the recall, it would not qualify for reimbursement, even though the same fuel pump was being used. i kept the faulty fuel pump for future inspection. if this incident happened on a busy freeway, there would have certainly been car-to -car contact of some sort. *tr | |||

| My 2005 audi a4 avant shut down today on the freeway. dealer said it was the fuel pump and that it failed early. however, they would not cover the repairs under warranty. i know there are recalls on the fuel pumps for the 2003 model but i believe the problem is actually more widespread. this is a very dangerous problem and to have the car shut down in the middle of the freeway is not normal. this fuel pump issue should be addressed immediately. i know there are many more owners out there that have experienced the same problems. *tr | |||

| Knocking noise under rear passenger seat behind driver. after changing out fuel gauging mechanisms and fuel pump the dealer has been told (by audi usa) that the cause is probably a filter element in fuel tank area which clogs and does not let the tank return air to tank after being compressed when fuel is sent to engine? the vehicle has been in the shop off and on for the last 2 months. although dealer/audi are trying to fix the vehicle this should not happen in a 35k plus automobile. i am only lucky that i still have some warranty time left (vehicle is not yet two years old with about 35k miles! had it not been for the warranty remaining this would have been very labor intensive thus very expensive. *tr | |||
