So I have a 2011 A5 Quattro with the 2.0 T and a 6speed manual transmission. A couple weeks ago I started my car and before I could get my seatbelt on it died, I started it back up only for it to die again. From there the car refused to start, after looking some I realized I wasn’t getting fuel to the high pressure pump, replaced the lift pump and filter in the tank. Seemed to work except for a misfire and code for the fuel pressure sensor being faulty. Decide to replace injectors along with the sensor. Car seemed to be fine until yesterday, again I started my car and it died, only this time I had to go away from the car for a bit, I come back and try to start it again after priming the fuel pump a couple times and it starts and runs. As I pull off it bucks like it lost power but then kept going fine. Today it died while I was driving, I get picked up to go to class and come back and the car starts again, bucks as I pull away a couple times but ultimately got me home. I decided to try testing different things to see if I can purposely make the car stall. In neutral I rev slightly to around 1100 rpm and then the car sputters and dies, for about an hour I could get the car to start by priming the pump but it wouldn’t stay running. I decided to let it set and cool down then I go back out a few hours later, prime the pump and it starts and runs. I would take it to the dealership for diagnostics but they won’t be able to get me in for 2 weeks. Need some suggestions to get my daily back on the road.
