Replying to: lecco (Oct 19, 2004 3:12 am) Hey lecco, Now that the weather is getting colder I think that I am going to go that route myself. There was a time it would not bother me but now I am just as happy to let someone else do it. I got a good deal on it $26,500 and have had no problems with it. I usually only use it on sunny days >8^)>3 It is a fun driving car. Has anyone hear had oil consumption issues. I have heard/read that they somtimes drink a bit of oil. I use Mobil1 5w-40 in mine. I read on some german car pages that over there 40 weight oils are recommended highly. I do baby me vehicles when it comes to maintenance. Do you know how to turn off the service indicator. It is telling me I need service but I just had it done. I leave no oil in beyond 5000 miles. And only synthetic fluids are ever used.

#428 of 496 Feedback on 04/05 TTs by mindseye Nov 14, 2004 (4:00 pm)
Nary a peep in this forum about recent models. Is that because they are so incredible that everyone is too busy driving them to post?   I'm going cross-eyed with all of this online research. Anybody out there have anything to say about the newer models? Any experiences with the DSG tans.?   Thx, SoonToBeTTFan Replies to this message: leofender (Mar 20, 2005 7:35 am) tjtt (Jun 21, 2005 5:46 pm)
#429 of 496 question on aftermarket/customization/accessories for tt by dtran2149 Nov 18, 2004 (6:51 am)
does anyone have any recommendations for which aftermarket choices, customizations, or accessories work really well for the TT? I've seen things like the center armrest I'm considering, but I was wondering about other things like inexpensive power improvements, lower body moldings, wheels, etc. In terms of what "working well" means, I would say relatively inexpensive, in keeping with the TT's character/style, and impactful either visually or practically.

Hi all, just got a 04 180R a few months ago, traded my old Z3. This is a third car (a 3rd Audi) and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Got it loaded down for invoice. I was happy with the price but wondered about the resale with the dealer going to invoice to get it out the door. But oh well since it is a third car and I will keep the miles low & it will be a long time before selling. No major problems to note, but the center storage door behind the seats won't close and I have the same rattling from the side mirrors, those will be taken care of at my next service stop. I put a small "bee sting" antenna on it from ttstuff to replace the ugly stock black one. If you guys have any questions about it let me know, I have two other audis as well so I am happy to help out wherever I can.

Replying to: ywilson1 (Oct 19, 2004 12:36 pm) ywilson1, From what I've been told (from Audi service manager), oil-burning seems to be a common problem with the TT's. My 02 225 TT (40k mi.)burns about 2 qts. about every 7-8k miles. I can see the soot collecting on my tailpipes (starts collecting after only one day). The manual says to change oil every 10k miles but I don't trust it. The dealership handles my TT service and they do oil changes every 10k with regular oil (synthetic is extra). The dealer uses 0W-30 which seems a little light/thin for such a hot running engine. Hope this helps.   leon Replies to this message: m113 (May 14, 2005 11:00 am)
#433 of 496 Expiring Warranty on a TT - Any recomendations? by heppy Feb 22, 2005 (11:40 pm)
My '01 TT warranty is expiring soon. Any suggestions on what I can REQUIRE from the dealership as opposed to what I can REQUEST for my final maintenance under warranty? Thxs.
#434 of 496 2005 Audi TT 3.2 no spare tire?? by sarahtt2005 Mar 14, 2005 (11:02 am)
hi- just got the 2005 audi TT 3.2 and i love it, but i just learned (the hard way) that the car does not come with a spare tire or a donut. i got a flat a few days ago and had to wait for roadside assistance to tow me (the gash in the tire was too big to use the tire mending kit). i really don't want to be towed whenever i get a flat, so what can i do? i also don't want to buy a whole new tire (that is about $500.00) help please. thanks.

Replying to: sarahtt2005 (Mar 14, 2005 11:02 am) Hmmm, I guess they removed the spare doughnut from the TT's. Mine (02 225 TT) came with a doughnut. It eats up trunk space so maybe that's why they removed it. My advice would be to buy a doughnut from either ebay or some aftermarket Audi site and stick the doughnut in your trunk. You can also buy a tire cover so you can keep your stuff from getting dirty. Oh, you would also need to buy a jack too. The Audi jack is like a jigsaw puzzle, the "scissor" jack from the japanese cars (toyota, nissan) are much easier to operate. Good luck.   Leon

Replying to: sarahtt2005 (Mar 14, 2005 11:02 am) Just thought of something. Check to see if your Audi came with a tire cover. I don't think our tires can fit in the trunk so the cover is there so you can put the flat tire in the passenger seat. Where your passenger is supposed to sit is beyond me.   Leon
