Whats wrong with my car? I own a 2001 WS6 A4. Sometimes when I floor it the car feels like it doesn't have any power (almost like its bogging down). When it shifts gears, only at wide open throttle, it makes a weird popping noice, almost like a backfire but not as loud and does a little lunge. Its really hard to explain. It threw a few of codes recently. The front left 02 sensor, an emissions code, and the last was a secondary induction code. What could these be? Any ideas as to what is going on and what I need to fix. Autozone reset the light and it hasn't come back on since. I know its not a very good explanation but I really cant explain the noise. The car is all stock exept for cat-back exhaust and free mods. Thanks in advance for your help.

Not quite the problem Im having. Mine will do it at any speed and I cant pump the gas to make it quit. I used to have mods but I returned the car to stock to see what the hell is wrong. Ive heard it could be the Mass Air to the cats. I just need some suggestions as to what it might be before I take it to a dealer for them to charge way too much to fix a problem that I know I can repair myself. I just need to find the problem first.
