ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
THE GAS GAUGE HAS NOT WORKED PROPERLY SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS REPAIRED BY AUDI WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND IN THE SHOP ON 3 OTHER OCCASIONS FOR THE SAME THING. NOW THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND AUDI WILL NOT COVE THE PROBLEM. AUDI IS COVERING A LIKE PROBLEM OUT OF WARRANTY IN THE UK, BUT WILL NOT HONOR OUT OF WARRANTY PROBLEMS IN THE US. IT IS VERY WELL KNOW THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE IN THIS VEHICLE WHICH IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM
THE FUEL SENDING UNIT CAN OFTEN REPORT INCORRECT INFORMATION, CAUSING OWNERS TO OCCASIONALLY RUN OUT OF GAS WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE. FUEL GAUGE HAS A TENDENCY TO JUMP FROM FULL TO EMPTY WITHIN MINUTES. AUDI HAS ALREADY RECALLED THEIR A6 MODEL FOR THE SAME DEFECT, YET DOES NOT WANT TO RECALL THE TT EVEN THOUGH THEY SHARE THE SAME PART NUMBER FOR THE FUEL SENDING UNIT AND EXHIBIT THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

PROGRESSIVE FAILURE OF INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. GAS GAGE READING 3/4 OF A TANK HIGHER THAN REALITY. I RAN OUT OF GAS IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER NO LONGER WORK. MAKES IT TOUGH TO PREDICT TURBO LAG. LOW POWER BEFORE TURBO KICKS IN AROUND 2200 RPM MAKES IT TOUGH TO PREDICT ACCELERATION OF CAR FROM STANDING START (SUCH AS LEFT TURN ACROSS A BUSY ROAD). TEMPERATURE GAGE READING HIGHER THAN ACTUAL ENGINE TEMPERATURE. UNABLE TO DETERMINE IF ENGINE MAY TRULY BE OVERHEATING. *TR

TIRES
HELLO! I OWN AN AUDI TT WHICH I GOT FROM TISHER AUDI IN SILVER SPRING IN MARCH 2006. I HAD 2 TIRE BLOW OUTS SINCE FEBRUARY 2007. AUDI TOLD ME THAT THE TIRE IT RECOMMENDED FOR THE CAR WAS A LOW ASPECT RATIO TIRE , WHICH WAS EASILY SUSCEPTIBLE TO BLOW OUT. THEY FELT THAT I PURCHASED A TIRE PROTECTION POLICY THAT COVERED THE COST OF REPLACING TIRES FREQUENTLY AND THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. THEY REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A SAFETY PROBLEM WITH FITTING CARS WITH TIRES THAT WERE EASILY SUSCEPTIBLE TO BLOW OUTS DUE TO A SHORTER TIRE WALL, AND THEY BLAMED THE ROAD CONDITIONS RATHER THAN THE EASILY SUSCEPTIBLE TIRES. MORE THAN ONE PERSON AT TISHER AUDI ACKNOWLEDGED THAT MULTIPLE CUSTOMERS HAD TO REPLACE FREQUENTLY TIRES DUE TO BLOW OUTS. I FOUND IT UNCONSCIONABLE THAT AUDI REFUSED TO ADDRESS THIS AS A CONSUMER SAFETY CONCERN. MY LAST BLOW OUT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND WAS A VERY PRECARIOUS SITUATION. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS CONSUMER CONCERN. YOUR CONSIDERATION WAS MUCH APPRECIATED. *AK
