Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“After driving in stop and go driving for a period of time the transmission starts to act up. When coming to a complete stop the car will shift down into first gear after the stop and cause the car to leap forward. I have almost rear ended several cars as a result of this. It is a well know problem with the Audi s-tronic transmissions found in the Audi S5 cabriolet and the Audi s4 models. The oil in the mechatronics unit heats up and causes problems with the circuitry which causes the issue. I have already had it in once for a software update to the tune of 800 dollars which did nothing. …”
