2002 AUDI TT Complaints

The clutch experienced failure while on the highway and wouldn’t go into gear without being put into neutral first then into second gear . Then while driving one day I couldn’t put it in reverse it’s just gone so now the car will roll slightly even with the emergency brake on but I was put in danger the day it wouldn’t shift gears as it should while on the highway leaving me pretty much in fast motion but unable to continue in gear as it should which caused me to have to drift to the side of the road to then experience the effect of it being in neutral to second to continue driving however the vehicle seems to be high reviving in all gears after this experience happened

TIRE CAME OFF CAR. REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM BROKE, LOWER LEFT KNUCKLE BUSHING SEIZED, SWAY BAR LINK BROKE, AXEL SHAFT COMPROMISED THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE THE KNUCKLE BUSHING WAS REPLACED. SECOND OCCURRENCE WAS 11/18/2017

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 AUDI TT. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE GEAR SHIFTER FAILED TO MOVE OUT OF FIRST GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

LEFT HEADLIGHT OCCASIONALLY WONT TURN ON. WOULD HAVE TO SWITCH ON/ OFF A FEW TIMES TO GET THEM TO TURN ON. TENDS TO HAPPEN MORE WHEN VEHICLE IS COLD.

ONE MORNING STARTED UP THE ENGINE ON MY AUDI, AND THE ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE IT HAD ROUGH IDLING, STUTTERING SOUND TO IT. I HAD TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND EXPERIENCED LACK OF POWER, HESITATION IN ENGINE, ROUGH IDLING, AND THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CHECKED OUT THE CODE. IT CAME UP TO BE (P0304) CYLINDER 4 MISFIRE. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC, AND HE REPLACED SPARK PLUGS, COIL PACKS. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTED. HE HAD CHECKED THE COMPRESSION. IT WAS GOOD. CHECK ALL WIRES, SENORS...ECT. ANYTHING HE COULD THINK OF AND IT ALL CHECKED OUT GOOD. TIMING BELT AND WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED COUPLE MONTHS BEFORE THIS PROBLEM EXISTED. THE PROBLEM ONLY EXISTS WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD. ONCE YOU WARM UP THE ENGINE, RESTART THE CAR, AND IT DRIVES PERFECTLY FINE! ENGINE COOLS DOWN, AND ROUGH IDLING, LACK OF POWER AND ALL THE COMES BACK AGAIN. THE MECHANIC DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE.

REAR GLASS WINDSHIELD STARTED TO COME APART N RAIN WATER LEAKED IN N SHORT CIRCUITED THE WIRING . THE WINDOW FINALLY CAME APART COMPLETELY N FELL OFF. BECAUS OF THE WATER LEAK , IT SHORT CIRCUITED THE WIRING N THE COMUNICATION WITH THE MAIN COMPUTER IS CORRUPTED N THE AIR BAG SIGN IS ON ALSO. THIS IS A BIG FIRE HAZARD N I HAVE TO REINSTALL NEW WIRING N HV A NEW ROOF INSTALL. THIS REAR WINDOW PROBLEMS ARE ON ALL AUDI CONVERTABLES BECAUSE OF THE BAD GLUE. ITS HIGH TIME THAT A RECALL ON THIS SHOULD BE ISSUED AS THIS IS ALSO A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD ALSO AS WELL AS A SAFETY ISSUE.MY CAR HAS ONLY 25,000 MILES ON IT NOW.

THE LED LIGHTS IN THE CENTER OF THE CONSOLE ARE GOING OUT. THERE WAS A RECALL AT ROUGHLY 50K MILES, THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND REPAIRED AND NOW THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THESE LIGHTS ARE IMPORTANT AS THEY TELL YOU WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR CAR SUCH AS ON OVERHEAT, LOW OIL ETC. *TR

IN AUG. 2012 AFTER THE 2ND INCIDENT, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS CHECKED BY AUDI DEALER, WHO SAID THEY COULD GLUE THE BUTTON BACK ON BUT REPORTED NOTHING WRONG WITH THE PARKING BRAKE APPARATUS. REAR BRAKES WERE REPLACED AS THEY WERE WORN AND DEALER SAID THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED THE REAR BRAKES AND THE WORN BRAKES COULD HAVE CAUSED THE FAILURE. CAR HAS RECEIVED ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE FROM THE SAME AUDI DEALER. I AM SOLE OWNER OF CAR.
