98 A4 Quattro 2.8 died at a Stop Light
Hi all,
While stopped a traffic light this morning the engine started running
rough and then simply died. I attempted to restart it without
success. I had just driven 50 miles without any issues.
The car has 114K miles and has had the timing belt changed as well as
all the schedule maintenance performed.
Can anyone give me any idea what could be the cause of this problem ?
It is at a dealership now and I would like to get an idea of what I am
in for.
thanks in advance,
jim

If it died slowly I would guess a bad fuel pump or its relay. still could be
many things.
