MRD77 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hi All, I am new to the forum and was hoping get some feedback about the way my A3 2.0 TFSI Quattro is handling. Basically the car seems to lose transaction when crossing lanes/going over white lines. I am not sure if the little shudder I feel through the steering wheel is the Quattro system kicking in or if there is actually something wrong with the setup (or tyres). I love the car but lacking a little confidence in its stability. Any thoughts or words of wisdom appreciated ?? Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Welcome to the forum Mike :) You'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) Firstly have you had a diagnostic check carried out? If not then I'd say this should be your first port of call. The Quattro system is great but can also be sensitive to changes in the car which can cause damage to it. For example uneven or mis-matched tyres, worn suspension parts or bad wheel alignment. Sorry I can't help more though. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gokiwi64 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 What tyres have you got fitted and do you know how old they are ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffcoggin Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Tyres are a good point Scott. If the tyres are not matched or are fitted the wrong way round Mike could get some odd handling problems on different surfaces. Thinking even further, are the tyres at the right pressure and is the tracking correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
