NHTSA complaint #10663464, filed 2014-12, 113,367 miles“I have an Audi A4 2007. Friday, march 5 I was driving to work and the car starting revving by itself, but slowing down at the same time. I was forced to put it in neutral and coast to the side of the road. Took it to the dealer, they said it was the fuel pump, replaced it. Saturday, I was the last car on an exit ramp preparing for light to change, but when I pushed the gas, the engine revved to 5, but would not move. Car was in drive position. …”
NHTSA complaint #10317318, filed 2010-03, 61,000 miles“Upon reading of a high number of failures and excessive wear on those yet to fail with under 50k miles on them, I check the cam follower inside the high pressure fuel pump of my 2007 Audi A4. Sure enough, it exhibits signs of excessive wear and well on it's way to failure - and expensive repairs and replacement parts. The dealership refuses to replace the cam follower, a $50 dollar part until it fails and causes damage to the engine's cam and high pressure fuel pump. Audi has issued a technical service bulletin on the problem. I only have 6 months of warranty to go. …”
NHTSA complaint #10313303, filed 2010-02, 33,000 miles“Fuel cut-off/surging when accelerating. Engine is not throwing any engine codes; however, a loss of power is present when accelerating. This occurs every time I try to accelerate. This is a known issue with the cam follower and high pressure fuel pump on all 2.0t fsi motors from Audi and vw. My cam follower has a hole in it (have the part) and the hpfp is worn down because it has made contact with the cam lobe, which has been scarred. Replacement requires a new cam, hpfp and cam follower. The design however will require constant inspection of the cam follower to avoid major engine failure. …”
