I have simiar issue with 05 plate TT, still has less than 6Kmiles. When left for 2 weeks without being run, it suffers complete battery drain. I have had the engine ECU replaced (under warranty) but the Fault has just reappeared!
My exprience tells me that this is an itermittant software issue, depending on the status of the interrupt flags at engine shutdown a sneak earth leakage path is set up thus allowing the battery to drain at different rates. Starting the engine resets the Flag system and temporarily clears the fault.

OMG-I was truly beginning to believe my car was possessed. I have a 01 Audi TT Roadster Quattro, bought used and now has 81K on it. It was wonderful up until about 2 months ago, the battery went dead, we thought since the car was almost 8 years old, a new battery was needed, so we replaced it. It drove for about a week and all of a sudden it was dead, used cables to re-start and it ran for about another week and now it's dead. If I had a choice, I would run that car off the nearest cliff and watch it on the way down. It would seem this all steams from some sort of electrical issue, due to take it to the dealership on Monday (if it will start). Even if it is fixed, is this an on-going problem? Sounds like I should just get out of it.

Calm down. Could be a battery drain. The dealer should be able to track this down.

That is the issue, we have replaced the battery 3 times and took it to the dealership and they could find nothing. But alas, I have gotten rid of the car this past weekend, bought a 08 Chevy Impala. Just wasn't comfortable with the car at all. Loved the look and drive, but piece of mind is much better.

Well can't argue with that. Anticipating the next break-down is nerve-wracking and I hate it, too.
 
I give a car "three strikes". If it leaves me totally stranded three times, despite my best efforts to make it reliable after each failure (and I DO try), it's up for sale, I'm done with it.

I have a 2001 TT Quatro and the trunk or fuel door has stopped working- not with the key or the button inside the car- has anyone else had this problem? Please help! Michelle

Might check the fuse for that button for starters. Can you open the trunk with the remote--that is, use the key after you've hit the remote to open all the doors?

I have checked the fuse panel and do not see anything that would match my problem. The trunks and fuel door do not open with the remote- or the button inside the car, and I have no key entry for the trunk...
