NHTSA Complaint #10247238 — 2001 AUDI TT

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, POWER DOOR LOCK BUTTON SOMETIMES DOES NOT WORK, DRIVER SIDE WINDOW SOMETIMES DOES NOT FULLY CLOSE, BUTTON TO PUT THE CONVERTIBLE TOP DOWN SOMETIMES DOES NOT WORK, BUTTON FOR MOTION SENSOR ALARM DOES NOT LIGHT UP WHEN PRESSED, LCD DISPLAY TURNS FULLY RED AND NEXT DAY IS BACK TO NORMAL, REAR DEFROST LINES NOT FULLY OPERABLE, WATER LEAKS IN BETWEEN WINDOW AND DOOR SEAL ON BOTH DOORS. I HAVE JUST PURCHASED MY CAR WITH ABOUT 19000 MILES, A FEW DAYS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON. TOOK IT TO TOYOTA GROSSINGER DEALER AND SAID THAT IT WAS THE FUEL GAGE AND THAT I SHOULD WAIT A FEW MONTHS FOR IT TO TURN ITSELF OFF. I CALLED AUDI DEALERSHIP AND SAID THAT MY CAR HAD NO RECALLS. THEN, I WENT TO A MECHANIC AND SAID THAT COMPUTER SHOWED THAT SOLENOID SENSORS HAD FAILED, SO IT WAS REPLACED. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN AND AFTER COMPLAINING WITH FIRST MECHANIC I WENT TO A TURBO PERFORMANCE SPECIALIST AND SAID THAT THE SECONDARY AIR PUMP HAD FAILED. CHANGED IT AND WEEK LATER LIGHT CAME BACK ON SHOWING THE SAME CODE. ALL THROUGHOUT, THE CAR HAS LOST POWER AND A FLUTTERING NOISE IS HEARD FROM FRONT DRIVER SIDE EVERY TIME I CHANGE GEARS. WHEN POWER LOCKS DON'T WORK, I HAVE TO USE THE REMOTE TO UNLOCK DOORS TO GET OUT OF CAR. SOMETIMES I HEAR SPARKS AND CLICKING FROM DASHBOARD DISPLAY. *TR
