One morning started up the engine on my audi, and the engine sounded like it had rough idling, stuttering sound to it. I had took it for a test drive and experienced lack of power, hesitation in engine, rough idling, and then check engine light came on. Checked out the code. It came up to be (p0304) cylinder 4 misfire. I took it to a mechanic, and he replaced spark plugs, coil packs. The problem still existed. He had checked the compression. It was good. Check all wires, senors...ect. Anything he could think of and it all checked out good. Timing belt and water pump was replaced couple months before this problem existed. The problem only exists when the engine is cold. Once you warm up the engine, restart the car, and it drives perfectly fine! Engine cools down, and rough idling, lack of power and all the comes back again. The mechanic doesn't know what the problem could be.

I bought a cpo 2009 audi tt shortly after purchasing I noticed that when I put the car in reverse it would not find a gear. The car would have to be restarted to correct the issue . I told the mechanic at my 6000 mile check that the car was not finding a gear when I put the car in reverse. He then said that all the readings from the car did not show an issue. At my 16000 mile service again told the rep that I was experiencing the same issue. He again stated no errors found. Then at 19000 miles my check engine light came on. The car began to drive kind of harsh at low speeds and I was experiencing the flashing lights of pnrds more often at least three times a week when switching to reverse. I took it in for the check engine light described the issue again to my service guy. He said they would look at it. Come to find out they said they needed to change the transmission control module unit and I would not receive my car for two weeks. I picked up my car verified with service rep the car was in good standing with warranty recalls he assured me everything was fine and the issue had been corrected. I had the car for no more than 12 hours before the flash of death pnrds appeared except this time I almost rolled into a car while parking. I immediately called the rep to discuss that this is some bs. So I took the car in and he said some bs how he took the car to some audi car maintenance guy and they said I would need a whole new transmission addition, I noticed that when moving the car from drive to park that was a double clicking sound and what can best be described a double lurching of the car when going to drive. So audi released a car they said was fine and it didn't work past 12 hours. I am over audi. I am currently in the process having them buy back the car because I have been without my car for a month. Pay 45k for a car it should work for more the 19k miles.

This is the utmost frustrating serial of incident I have ever encountered with an auto manufacture company - audi. I have tried to put my faith and safety again with audi, but they have completely failed me leaving me and family in dangerous and paranoia. My audi 2009 tts was problem free until 4,000 miles. Out of ordinary, the engine light came on and the dealership informed me that the fuel seal was leaking and needed replacement. This incident was very similar with my 2009 a3 incident (odi #10281829). I have since been extremely paranoid with my new tts as the a3 had left me very frightening experience as it had completely lost power on the highway. At around 14,000 miles, I have noticed a ticking sound by the rear driver area. This was the area that the dealership had worked on at 5,000 miles with the replacement of fuel seal. I have not think much of it as the car was still running and it was approaching the next service interval and I thought I can just have the dealership check this problem then. However, today, I was driving locally with my grandmother in las vegas. The ticking sound was still there and the tts once again completely failed on the local street. I was traveling on the local street in the far left lane at around 45 MPH, the car started to jerk and the check engine light was on. Then the engine completely shut down in the middle!! I did not want to stop in the middle of the traffic and I have turned on my emergency light and cruise to a stop in the middle lane. My grandmother and I was in complete shock, I cannot believe this is happening to me again with another audi car. Twice in 10 months. Luckily, the engine restarts and the check engine light was no longer on, but I could smell a whip of gasoline. I have stop by a gas station to see where is this smell was coming from. It was coming from the left exhaust pipe. I am completely frustrated and I will never purchase and trust audi with my life. This cannot happen.

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.

10-december 2005 spontaneous deployment of driver side seat airbag. Conditions: clear road at 7,000 feet elevation, ~ 30 MPH estimated speed. Airbag light indicator on after event, check engine light on after event, interior light on. No 4-way flasher. 13-december 2005 dropped off at rector motors, burlingame, ca. J. M. Handles service contacted and informed audi customer relations. 23-january 2006 audi called stating that their liability group has advised that "it was an insurance issue, meaning that repair of the airbag would be a cost to submit to my insurance, not anything audi would pick up. I pointed out that the issue was not whether the cost was audi's or mine but rather that exploding airbags represent a safety concern that has not been addressed. On 4-january 4, 2006 dealer advised that audi did not request nor received information logged in event data recorder and that local dealers didn't have ability to download or view key information for diagnosing problem. On 24-january 2006 informed that the response from audi was inadequate. He stated that the liability engineer had made his assessment and that there would be no further response from audi. I requested that audi download the details in the event data recorder as a means of identifying the cause of the deployment. He reiterated that there would be no further response from audi nor would they be willing to document their findings until the vehicle was repaired at which time they would provide a statement that it was then operating to audi standards. I informed him that there was no causative incident that triggered the deployment and that replacing the bag without correcting the underlying cause posed ongoing risk to me, my passenger and any other vehicles that might be involved in the next deployment. He stated that the liability engineer had concluded that the deployment was related the marks behind the wheel and that no further assessment would be made by audi.
