Some problems
I have a 2001 A6 2.7t Automatic with Tip Tronic. The car have 118K miles and I would appreciate very much any king of sugestions regarding the following problems:
The tiptronic is not working. When I switch from automatic to tip tronic, nothing happens.
When I'm slowing down, like on a stop light, i can feel some vibrations on the front of the car.
The car sometimes smells like burning oil. Especially when I use the 93 Octanes gas. For some reason, when I use the regular gas, it doesn't smell nearly as much as the premium.
Wich gas should I use?
Thank guys, for the help.
Regards

Tiptronic problem Is probably just the switch in the shifter
is yhe shifter blind around the shifter broken or sticky? that is where the magnetic switch is....
Oil smell probably torsen diff seal or cam adjuster seals, expensive on that car,
And front brake rotors are probably warped....
These are a guess, I am no way a professional....

Nah, it's gotta be the same problem 3 times, or more than x number of days in the shop. I did lemon
my S-10 after it spent 47 days in the shop during the first 6 months of ownership. That was a painful process.
The ironic thing is that he's not a car guy and he's always bought late model Ford trucks at the auction. He's never had a single problem until he bought new.
