2002 Audi A6 Allroad revs dying away. Any pointers?

[corporalsparrow]

Hi all,

I have my father-in-law's 02 Audi Allroad 2.5 diesel with me at the moment. It's an underused car, only about 60,000 miles on it. But when you put your foot down the revs climb to around 3-3,500rpm and then suddenly die away down to about 2,000. You can put your foot flat on the floor but nothing happens, it just wheezes along at around 2,000 for 5 or 10 seconds before picking up again.

It doesn't happen when you put the gearbox into sport.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Cheers,

David

Anyone, anyone?

Get yourself over to quattroforum.com and ask for the contact number for a guy called Pete Knights. He's apparently the guru for the C5-generation AllRoad (ie yours).
