NHTSA recall 04V007000
Power Train · Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles with direct shift gearbox, during the production of the gearbox, a seam at the clutch was not welded to specifications. This could lead to degraded performance of the clutch inside the gearbox.
Why it matters: The clutch could lose its ability to provide input torque to the transmission without prior warning, which could allow the vehicle to roll, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace the clutch. Owner notification began on April 30, 2004. Owners should contact Audi at 1-800-822-2834.
