Scratching head on this problem
Picked up a new/used 99 A4 today. While driving home in a "snow flurry" read=SNOWSTORM, the car started to exhibit bad behavior. At first it was pretty subtle, as it was windy like no other and I was getting pushed all over the road, but in retrospect, this behavior was happening. Anyway, my best description is: Cruising along at 40 mph or so, first I would hear this strange grinding, rhythmic growl, then the car would do a pretty hard lurch to the right, then left, then the noise would get louder for a second, then the back end would go back and forth, like the car was shaking its ***. Now, in a snowstorm, on questionable tires, this was somewhat unnerving. When I got home I did a quick visual, found nothing. Anyone else ever experienced this sort of behavior? Oh, and it did seem to go away once I got to dry pavement and could go 75 again
