 On 1/25/2007 car was cold in garage. would not start on first or second attempts. on third attempt the car turned over but the epc light illuminated and the entire vehicle was heavily shaking and rocking back and forth. no power to drive the vehicle. had it towed to the dealership (schaumburg audi). dealer said the computer recorded multiple cylinder misfires but that there was nothing else they could find wrong. car was kept overnight and returned to me when no further problems could be found and the event could not be replicated. nothing was actually repaired and no parts replaced. *jb
