It burns me up because when it comes to having a tech ride with me all of a sudden it’s oh no can’t do that no time but everything’s works like it should!

unfortunately I have taken it to them repeatedly and have been told “it’s operating to manufacturers standards and no codes found”

My friend's 2012 Audi A7 with 65k miles had that severe vibration at idle that you feel in seat and floorboards. He had my dealership replace motor mounts under extended warranty and its now smooth. Gotta get those replaced asap. If your current dealership isnt expert enough and keep denying it, take to another good reputable Audi dealership and show the tech.

Scheduled it to go into dealership again. Mentioned to them that I have been searching forums and that all signs are pointing to the motor mounts.
Hopefully they will get everything straightened out and end the terrible vibration 😶

Silly question,
occasionally even during normal daily weather, I intermittently get an error message in the cluster for ; stability program fault message and acc and Audi braking guard disabled following. Could these be tied in at all with engine mounts?
thanks in advance everyone.

Quick update, the only thing they “found” was a failed right front strut and wheel bearing...
so so far the same exact issue persists.
For roughly a year I have had some concerns with the shifting wether it be up or down. Harsh, delayed, laggy, ect... however, Yesterday I had something extremely concerning happen, while driving home from work I was driving in regular automatic comfort, and when slowing and allowing the car to just coast/downshift it slammed down in gear so hard it quite honestly felt like someone had rear ended me badly. I’d say it was probably from 4-3 or 3-2 has anyone experience anything similar?
Thanks in advance everyone!
