RW>Interesting. Audi suffered the loss of sales on that item.

BIG time and the used prices dropped like a rock.
Complicating the confusion between Brake and acellerator was that the
Pedals were at almost the SAme Lever where as on the US and lots of
other cars the Breke pedal is quite a bit higher off the floorboard.
The "fix" Audi did was to put a Spacer under the Brake pedal to raise it
up.
I My first Audi didn't have it and the second one I bought did and I
removed it as I liked the origional placement.
