Rob F Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Hi everyone. New to the club. I have an A7 3.0 2wd tdi. 2011 . 90k. S tronic I have an issue with the take up of drive from stationary. It feels like the clutches are slow to engage and when it does, it's jerky. It's worse on an incline. The oil has just been changed. No codes etc. Once the vehicle is moving, its perfect. Any one had similar issues. Audi said no outstanding recalls etc. If it was a manual, it feels like you are slow with the clutch pedal and you have clutch judder. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rastaman Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I don't have any issues with take off from stationary but I don't use the auto-hold and disable start-stop when I drive which I feel (wrongly or rightly) slows the take off which can then make roundabouts sporting!

Rob F Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 Ok thanks. Any ideas of remedies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob F Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 Sorry or other remedies. I switch that stuff off too. It's only when stationary. It's like the clutches are worn. I guess it could be those. I get judder. Which point towards clutches. I might change them in time and keep you all posted. Thanks anyway Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan3222 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Just out of interest, is it worse when everything is cold, i.e. In first 10 mins of driving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob F Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 It does seem to get a little better when it's warm. But still not perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skull duggery Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 This could be a long shot but I had s similar problem on a Vauxhall omega ....... yeah I know.... but your symptoms sound the same. The issue I had was the torque converter in the gearbox, which I will be honest was going to cost a fortune to repair. now I don't know the tech specs of gearboxes etc but its a starting point to give to the technician. Cheers, S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob F Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share Posted August 17, 2017 Hi. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate it. . The A7 dont have torque convertors. Since my post I'm gonna change the multiplate clutches in the box and see how I go. I've priced them from Audi and they arnt that expensive. I'll change them myself.... that is. I'll keep you posted how it goes. Thank you for your help Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
