• Recall 2009278 [Canada]: Fuel supply
  On certain audi a3 quattro, tt quattro and tt quattro roadster, the closing force of an internal spring of the fuel tank ventilation valve is not adequate enough to hold the valve closed under extreme conditions. During certain driving manoeuvres, liquid fuel may enter the fuel tank venting system and migrate into the evaporative system, saturating the carbon canister. Should this occur while driving, the vehicle may experience performance issues (i.E. Vehicle jerking) and the malfunction indicator lamp (mil) in the instrument cluster could illuminate. In certain instances, fuel could leak from the evaporative system leak detection pump filter. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: dealers will replace the fuel tank ventilation valve with an improved version.

Took my car for an alignment and was told the problem was with the tires. Firestone primewells as. The side walls have bubbles. Firestone said two alignments was not enough to keep tires safe. Then they added it was improperly aglined. Only have 14000 miles on tire. Firestone refused to honor warranty.

I've had the esp/abs problem since i've owned this car, the yellow warning light comes and goes but whenever the esp/abs warning light is on, esp/abs does not work but the light turns off within a few minutes or couple of hours. Somehow when i have the mechanics check diagnose the car for the problem but they ended up not finding any logs for those mentioned problem....Last time this happened was today on my way home..

I have a silver tt 2008 with auto gearbox. I've had it since april 20th this year! Problem is, it jerks and bunnyhops when pulling off, reversing and moving in slow traffic. It gets worse after the car warms up and is a nightmare trying to park in tight space , no mil or codes ,audi dealer couldn't find anything wrong with the car , going tomorrow to a different audi dealer hopefully they have better knowledge of this issue. *tr

My 2008 audi tt would constantly beep with "right rear light" or "left rear light" with an x through a light bulb symbol popping up on the screen in between the tachometer and the speedometer. If i applied the brakes, the x through a light bulb symbol would go away. It turns out that the light that is farthest outboard in the tail light housing (on both left and right sides) was the problem. I found that the problem was with corrosion within the connectors that go directly to the tail light housing. It appears that the ground wire is much larger than the other wires, but the size of the connector is the same. The wire has too much current for the connector to handle. It melts the plastic around it and becomes corroded as a result. If you google "audi tt tail light problems" you will see that many other consumers have this issues, with some even reporting fires in their tail lights. I reported the issue to my local audi dealer as well as audi corporate. They will not replace the wires, and they want to charge me $90 just to diagnose the issue, and up to $900 to replace the tail lights. This is absurd, since it is a poorly engineered design that results in a very serious fire hazard. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 audi tt. The contact stated that the driver's side tail light failed. The vehicle was taken to a private mechanic where it was found that the socket had melted. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage and vin was not available.

I drive a 2008 audi tt 2.0t with the dsg gearbox. When i try to accelerate quickly or move my automatic transmission from drive to sport there are times when my car feels like it shifts in to neutral instead of down shifting into the next lower gear. There are also times at low speed when the car will have a harsh shift from first to second and occasionally the automatic transmission will almost stall when trying to start from a stop on a hill. This problem occurs sporadically while i am driving and appears to correct itself. When the car seems to fall out of gear and it feels like i am in neutral i let me foot off of the gas and a few seconds later the transmission will reengage in the appropriate gear and i have the ability to accelerate again. This condition has not led to any serious issues yet but there have been a few times when i have been in the middle of a lane change and stepped on the gas and the car drops in to neutral. This has led to at least one near accident but no accidents have occurred. I have not had the problem looked at yet because it comes and goes at random but i have my 25000 mile service scheduled on july 31st and i was going to inform the audi dealer of the problem and have them look into it. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2008 audi tt. Whenever the contact approached a stop sign, the vehicle began to accelerate and surged forward. The vehicle was diagnosed by the dealer; however, they were unable to duplicate the failure. The current and failure mileages were 12,000.
