Sluggish A5
Hello, I wonder if anyone has any suggestions, I recently purchased a 2012 Audi A5 tfsi 2ltr petrol automatic and have noticed that is is very slow to react when I pull away especially if I'm on a small incline infact quite often it does a small wheel spin and I have hardly put my foot down anywhere, anyone out there have any suggestions please?

Also use a tankful of Top Tier premium gas/petrol to see if that helps.
If your wheels are spinning, I assume you have a FWD, but if Quattro, you may have other issues, I'll let others chime in on.

What he said - clean air filter. Put a fuel cleaner - Gum Out, STP, Techron, 104 Gas Booster. Or you may also use some Ethanol cleaner. Put some BG MOA in the oil engine.
Now if all that fails ! Then, time to look for a REVO dealer and do a Stage 1 tune. Cost $500, but it was all worth it for me. My A4 allroad now runs like an S4 avant.

Does anybody else with a 1.8T have "sluggish power" when the temperature is over 90 degrees? Normal?
