2001 Audi Tt

AUDI TT, 2001, ROADSTER. THE GLOVE BOX LOCK FAILED WITHOUT REASON. THIS FAILURE DOES NOT ALLOW THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG TO BE DISCONNECTED FOR CHILDREN AS REQUIRED BY LAW. MY CAR IS NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS DEFECT. IT IS A DESIGN FAILURE CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD TO SMALL PASSENGERS. THIS FAILURE IS COMMON TO AUDI TT 2000 THRU 2005. NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED VIA A RECALL, AN IMPROVED GLOVE BOX LOCK SYSTEM. REPAIRING WITH THE SAME SYSTEM ONLY LEADS TO RECURRENT FAILURES. *TR

THIRD INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON A 2001 AUDI TT ROADSTER. FUEL GAUGE AT FIRST SHOWED TOO MUCH FUEL. AFTER A NEW CLUSTER THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWS LOW WHEN ITS NOT. APPARENTLY THE SENDING UNIT IS THE CAUSE BUT AUDI IS IGNORANT OF THE ISSUE AND DOES NOT HAVE A REPAIR SOLUTION. I DARE SAY AUDI DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ITS CARS, THEIR PROBLEMS AND THEIR CUSTOMERS. *TR

2001 AUDI TT CONVERTIBLE: THE HORN JUST STOPPED WORKING ONE DAY, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY STARTED TO NOT DISPLAY CLEARLY THEN THE CAR SEEM TO LACK POWER WHEN STARTS UP, CAR THEN WOULD NOT START IN THE MORNINGS, THEN THE CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER BEING LEFT FOR MORE THAN 20 MINUTES, AND THE CAR WOULD OFTEN TOTALLY SHUT OFF WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT THEN AUTOMATICALLY TURN BACK ON AGAIN ALL BY ITSELF. THE BRAKE LIGHTS ALSO STAYED ON AT ALL TIMES EVEN WHEN THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IGNITION COILS ALSO CAUGHT ON FIRE AFTER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON FOR ONLY A FEW HOURS. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP WARNING LIGHT IS FLASHING ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, AND THERE IS A RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM THE CONVERTIBLE TOP LATCH AREA WHILE DRIVING. CONSEQUENCES: DANGEROUS LIFE THREATENING SITUATIONS, FEAR, STRESS, FINANCIAL BURDEN/HARDSHIP, TIME CONSUMING, AND EXTREME INCONVENIENCE. REPAIRS: HORN WAS REPAIRED, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS REPLACED, CONVERTIBLE TOP RATTLE AND WARNING LIGHT NOT REPAIRED, BRAKE SYSTEM WAS REPLACED, AND COILS ALL REPLACED. *TR

I HAVE A 2001 AUDI TT. I BOUGHT IT THREW A DEALERSHIP OUT OF STATE ONLINE. WENT AND PICK IT UP AND WAS FINE BUT A COUPLE OF WEEKS WENT BY AND STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH INSTRUMENT PANEL NO GAS GAUGE SPEEDOMETER TEMPERATURE GAUGE OR DASH LIGHTS. THEY WILL GO OUT JUST RIDING UP THE ROAD AND DOES IT MORE SINCE ITS COLDER WEATHER SO I STARTED LOOKING IN TO THIS MATTER AND THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH AUDI AND I THINK THEY SHOULD MAKE THIS RIGHT AND PLUS ITS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE TO ME THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 AUDI TT COUPE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH SHE BEGAN TO ROLL DOWN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW AND SMOKE STARTED TO COME OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER AND SHUT OFF. IT WAS THEN TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE WINDOW MOTORS WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED FIVE TIMES. WHEN THE FAILURES OCCURRED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE AUTHORIZED DEALER TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

THE BRAKES FAILED ON THE 2001 AUDI TT SPORTSCAR. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR CRASHED. THE AUDI DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE BRAKES FAILED AGAIN, AND FORTUNATELY THE CAR DID NOT CRASH. AGAIN, AUDI INSISTS THE BRAKES ARE FINE, BUT OBVIOUSLY, SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 AUDI TT. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH UP AN INCLINE THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHUTTER, THE CONTACT THEN APPLIED THE BRAKES AND NOTICED THAT THEY WOULD NOT ENGAGE. IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE VACUUM PIPE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE WERE NO PRIOR WARNINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WAS 68000.

ON OUR AUDI TT 2001 CONVERTIBLE, THE ELECTRICAL OUTLETS UNDERNEATH THE DASHBOARD CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND AFTER AN INVESTIGATION, FOUND NO KNOWN CAUSE OF FIRE. ALSO, PRIOR TO THIS FIRE, THE TIP OF THE SPARK PLUG FELL INTO THE ENGINE CYLINDER BLOCK, CAUSING US THE OWNERS TO PAY IN FULL FOR A NEW ENGINE HEAD TO BE REPLACED....LOTS OF MONEY (APPROXIMATELY $8000). WE REPLACED IT THROUGH A WELL KNOWN PROFESSIONAL AUDI SHOP AUTO HAUS MUNICH IN SAN DIEGO. HAZARDOUS LIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED PROFESSIONALLY BECAUSE IT INTERFERED WITH THE SIGNAL LIGHTS. MUCH MONEY & TIME SPENT, AND MANY HEADACHES EXPERIENCED WHILE OWNING THIS BEAUTIFUL YET TROUBLESOME CAR. *TR
