2003 Audi TT FWD review from North America
"Do not buy an Audi!!! Ever!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- Major oil leak! Fixed for $1200; replaced head gasket!
- 2nd Major oil leak! Cracked turbo housing!!! Did not fix; $2,550, hell no!
- Coolant leak from the little motor that runs after car is turned off; $450 fix!!! Had to!!
- Electrical nightmare! Gauges pooped out; $550 fix.
- Timing belt; what a rip off; $900!!
- 3rd oil leak!!! From the cams!!! $700 from Audi!!!
I had almost 300,000 miles on my Acura and nothing like this crap happened to it... I want my Acura back...
- Oh, the automatic tranny needs replacing, gave someone else that problem.
- I bought an 03' to avoid these problems!!! I was WRONG!!! Thanks crappy Audi!!!
General comments?
I hate Audi!!! This was my second TT and I now tell people to buy well, anything else!!!
My friend had an 02' A6 and he is having electrical problems and oil leaks... He sold it after I talked to him.
DO NOT BUY AUDI!!! People that own Audi's don't tell you about these little problems, because they are embarrassed. I was!!!
I now bought an "01' Acura CL type S" and it smokes Audi's!!! Even ones all tricked out. One even broke while I was driving next to it on the highway, just went up in smoke, I could only laugh!!!
I stopped and talked to the guy, and told him about my problems with my previous 2 Audi's, and he said he had the SAME problems!!!! AUDI SUCKS!!!!
