Guessing is a waste of time. I like the ESP intervention guess that Mark posted, though.

JasonS4 cut throttle due to ESP intervention when spooling up in 3rd on Friday. Sub 3 FATS FTW...

My ESP and ABS have been in-op for a while now so that's not it. No other ideas Mark?

Default Its all related to the RS4 steering wheel and its misallignment. But believe me both the ESP &

ABS no workie

I'm going to have my local tech at BlackForest Motorsport hook up VagCom and I'm going to try to get the car to do its thing so I can post logs.

That could be it too, get the wheel fixed first and then see if it still happens.
