Just got a 2011 A5, 6 days ago. Got on the freeway accelerating at a normal interval and the car starts shaking when trying to accelerate, check engine light flashing, and EPC light on. I am taking it to the dealer tomorrow. What do these symptoms sound like?

I had an oil filter once that caused the same kinda issue in a jetta. lack of oil presure due to a block of ice in my oil pan tho so the extra suction caused the filter to distort and block the sensor in there.
