Default Common Problems

Hi all.

Well i think it's about time to start a list of common problems everybody has experienced since owning there TT, i will make a start with the following list.

Owned the car 6 months, and too date this is the problems i have had.

1. Fuel gauge not working and inaccurate. the whole dash pod had to be replaced at a cost of £900, this is a very common problem with Audi's and i think (please correct me) is now a recall on most models??
2. Banging from front of car. front anti roll bar is split and bushes terribly worn. bought a new roll bar and bushes for £90, but yet to fit as its a big job, dropping the subframe etc. again common problem with Audi's
3. started misfiring, loss of power, sounds like a tank. no 3 and 4 coil pack shagged, Audi charged me £90 to fix. very common problem, this things are very weak and seem to be the cause of lots of problems.
4. Mass Air Flow senser, probably my fault for installing an oiled induction kit, but neverthe less it's still should be one of the first thinks you check if you are having engine problems. i need to replace mine now, easily done at home, new MAF should be aroud £50-£60

Thats it so far, but im pretty sure i will be adding to this list shortly, am i considering selling my beloved TT....??? not in a million years, its all part of the fun of being an owner. The more we all get together and list problems hopefully it will help other owners to diagnose faults without being shagged up the ass by Audi with extortionate maintenance costs!!!

please all add your stories to this thread!

thanks.
