AUDI TT 2002 DASH POD RECALLED IN IRELAND AND BRITAIN. INTERFERENCE AND ERRATIC PERFORMANCE WITH INSTRUMENT GAUGES AND LIGHTS. I AM HAVING SAME PROBLEM AND VEHICLE ONLY HAS 30K MILES. CAN RESULT IN UNEXPECTED SHUT DOWN ON HIGHWAY. DEALER SAYS CAR COMPUTER DOES NOT INDICATE ANY PROBLEMS AND CUSTOMER, ME, ENDS UP PAYING FOR EACH MALFUNCTIONING COMPONENT AS JUST "NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR". *TR

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

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.

MY NEW CAR CAME EQUIPPED WITH HIGH PERFORMANCE MICHELIN TIRES. I WAS DRIVING HOME AND NOTICED A PECULAR SOUND AND THEN HAD DIFFICULTY CONTROLLING MY CAR. SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE CAR. I MANAGED TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE TIRE WAS SMOKING AND THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF BURNING RUBBER. THE TIRE WAS COMPLETELY SPLIT AROUND THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE RIM. THE VEHICLE STOPPED BECAUSE THE DRIVER SAID HE COULD SEE SMOKE COMING FROM MY PRIOR TO THE TIME I NOTICED A PROBLEM. I HAD THE SPARE PUT ON AND WENT HOME. THE NEXT MORNING, I HAD DIFFICULTY FINDING A DEALER THAT CARRIED THE TIRE, 225/10 ZR18. THE AUDI DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE TIRES WERE UNDER A WARRENTY FROM MICHELIN, BUT WERE UNABLE TO GIVE ME A CONTACT NUMBER AT THAT TIME. I TOOK THE TIRE TO A SHOP THAT COULD ORDER THE TIRE AND REPLACE IT IN LESS THAN 3 DAYS. THE OWNER WAS CONCERNED THAT THE TIRE WAS DEFECTIVE. I CALL MICHELIN AND SPOKE TO A CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WHO WAS CLEARLY DEFENSIVE AND NON- SPECIFIC. HE REFUSED TO TAKE ANY COMPLAINT OR INFORMATION ABOUT THE TIRE BECAUSE THE TIRE STORE WAS NOT AN AUTHORIZED MICHILEN DEALER. HE INFORMED ME THAT I COULD HAVE EASILY "HIT" AN OBJECT IN THE ROAD AND NOT FELT IT. I FIND THAT EXPLANATION VERY QUESTIONABLE. I HIT NOTHING. THERE WERE NO FOREIGN OBJECTS, SUCH AS NAILS OR GLASS, IN THE TIRE. I PURCHASED THE CAR, AN AUDI TT 2002, WITH THE FACTORY INSTALLED TIRES, NOVEMBER OF 2002. THE CAR HAD ABOUT 4000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AT PURCHASE AND NOW HAS 6200 MILES. MY DRIVING IS CITY/COUNTRY AND, TRUELY, I RARELY DRIVE OVER THE SPEED LIMIT. ALTHOUGH, I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE TIRE, I AM MORE CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A VERY SERIOUS INJURY HAD I BEEN DRIVING ON A MULTILANE, HIGH SPEED FREEWAY. I DO NOT WISH TO SEE ANY OTHER DRIVER BE LESS FORTUNATE THAN I.
