2004 Audi TT Quattro, Papaya Orange, Coupe, 1.8, 6 speed Manual

225 HP, Twin Intercoolers, All Wheel Drive

( 1 of 39 Papaya Orange TT's delivered to North America)*** [See below in "Overall" section]

Back Story: I purchased this TT in April of 2009 on Auto trader.com. I drive my TT to work 4 miles each way or 8 miles round trip daily. I keep it in the Garage, and take care of the car. I use premium gas, and have the oil changed regularly. I would consider myself to be "obsessive" on keeping my car maintained, clean and "happy". I saw my first TT in Berlin of 1999 and fell in love with the car...and said...one day! 10 years later...I got the Car and the COLOR I wanted!

Obvious Question: "Why, would you sell your TT if you LOVE it so much"?

Answer: I had several financial hits in a row... personal, medical, and on the TT.

REPAIRS: The timing belt broke at a stop light back in April (60 days ago). $5300.00 in parts and labor later I have a repaired engine, with several new components under warranty*. (The Parts have a one year/ 12,000 mile warranty, through Gunther VW, in Buford, Georgia. I confirmed with service department, as long as the car is taken to a VW dealership with a certified Service Center the parts and labor are covered). While the engine was out the technician showed me where a coolant hose to the Turbo was leaking, so it was replaced. I have all the receipts from the repairs. which of course you will get. A week after I picked up the TT, the shifting was odd...and as bad luck would have it... 2 shifting forks broke (after the entire drive train was removed and inspected) so those were replaced with new parts. While the Drivetrain was removed, the entire clutch assembly was worn beyond limits, so that too was replaced with new parts. The next thing to "fail" was the drivers window switch...and that too was replaced with a new switch. So for ease of seeing what is new on the TT, I will list them here from the most recent to first items replaced. The CV Boots were also worn beyond limits and were replaced.

Overall:

***This TT is a very Rare Color. I called Audi customer service, I was told that "indeed it was rare, and is 1 of 39 in all of North America (Canada, USA, Mexico). ***

The TT has 141K miles, however with the new parts and components mentioned above I truly and sincerely feel the car is in really good shape.

It has a PPI Rear Bumper Section. (I have had a difficult time finding another in the US).

Original Alloy wheels.

The TT drives extremely well! What does that mean?

It handles well, even on wet surfaces. > New Tires, New Shocks and Quattro (AWD) system.

Now that the Engine has new Valves, the Head Milled, new gaskets, new seals etc, it performs and responds extremely well!

Moving up through the gears feels strong and responsive. >New Clutch and Shifting forks.

The turbo kicks in as it should, and feels stronger since the coolant hose was replaced.

It stops well and has a good feel: not too loose, not too stiff.

The A/C is ICE COLD (my wife says I freeze her out) :)

The Heat is great (too well for me).

The Heated Seats work fine.

The Head lights are good, as are the tail lights, and side marker lights.

The Audio System is great and the Bose speakers are great too. Good clean sound, deep bass.

The headliner, seats, and carpets are in great shape. (The drivers side mat has a place where the Heel has worn it a bit)

I purchased for the Car:

Owners Manual off EBAY a few years back (did not come with one), which is included.
Service Manual last year, Hard Cover, which is included.
Radio Removal Tools, which is included.

Comes with 2 Keys (Key Fob Device).

History of the TT:

I am the 3rd owner of the TT. (based on the Car Report)

Made in Hungary, Shipped to Utah where I presume the TT lived.

It was sold and "moved" to Vermont, and "lived" there for a time.

I purchased it from a Ford Dealership in Vermont and had it shipped to me here in Georgia.

It has been Garaged every night since April 2009.

Concerns

The front chin spoiler has a crack, which is how I got it back in 2009. (I have been looking for a new chin spoiler to replace it, but was at the bottom of my list).

There are chips in the paint:

above the windshield where it meets the roof
Drivers Door where the latch is.
on the front bumper & hood(I suppose it had been down several gravel roads before I owned it)

The PPI rear bumper

has a lot of little paint (surface) cracks in the nooks and crannies ( was this way when purchased, no idea why they occurred)
The PPI rear bumper is missing the two pocket "fin" inserts based on the photos I have seen of them on line.
In place of these inserts are mesh screen with a black plastic backing, now painted black. It was this way when I purchased it.

The Instrument Cluster:

Many online forums have mentioned a huge concern with TT's having instrument cluster problems/ failures, this one has a few things/ quirks with it. I am not replacing it, as everything "works".
Fuel Gauge: It works, as does the yellow warning icon on the Multifunction display, and audible "beep" when you get low on gas, however the Analog Dial only "travels" from past full to 1/2 a tank.
(I asked if I could replace just this gauge, but you have to change the entire panel). As I said it works just a bit quirky.

Med Kit Compartment

The Med-Kit compartment door latch broke off when my 6 year old son (then 4) found it. I have not been worried about it so I left it.
The Med-Kit is there and complete.

Rear Luggage Compartment

As I mentioned above I had to purchase a Cargo Cover Lid, as it was not with the car when I bought it.
I just bought a TT Jack
I cannot find a Used JACK COVER. It was not on the car when I got it.
I am not sure if the foam tray around the spare tire is complete... not sure.
Rear Lid Light Assembly Housing cracked but functional. I have not ordered the part.

Drivers Side Mirror

it has a small vibration, and I am not sure why, as it "slews" in all directions with the electronic control in the drivers door. The passenger mirror is fine.

Six CD Changer

For reasons unknown to me some of my CD's can't load/ cue up from the six magazine cd holder at certain times. I have loaded up 6 CD's and had no problems, but others don't feed. ( no idea)?!!!

Drivers Side Floor Mat

Small worn spot where the heel would rest on the ma

End of Concerns

Shipping:

Buyer is responsible for Shipping.

I will email with the buyer on specifics.

Final Remarks:

The TT is a good car, safe, performs and handles well.

I have cared for the car as best as I could and put a substantial amount of new parts into the car in the 3 years I have owned it.

It has been maintained well: washed, waxed, garaged kept, new tires, etc. and regular oil changes.

I will miss the "Orange Jet".

Audi RS7 vs. Porsche Panamera Turbo, which would you pick? [w/poll]

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

We live in a blessed time - a time when you can buy not just one, but two (or three, or four) monstrously powerful, blazingly fast four-doors that can't only keep up with modern supercars, but in some instances, will outperform them as well. Two of the finest are the Audi RS7 and the refreshed Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Motor Trend has been messing around with the both of them in this comparison video.
MT provides a comprehensive and entertaining look at the RS7 and the turbocharged Panamera as they go through a battery of tests, before getting tossed about on both the road and the track. Starring flip-flop aficionado Jonny Lieberman, it's a must-watch, whether you're in the market for one of the two super sedans or merely want to see the former Autoblog editor again.
After having a look at the video, register a vote for the car you'd park in your driveway in our poll. Hop below for the full video from the team at Motor Trend.

Audi Sport Quattro Concept makes video debut

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

Audi has stayed quiet about its Sport Quattro Concept since the 700-horsepower, tangerine rocket debuted at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show - a followup to Quattro Concept shown at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. Now, Audi has broken the plug-in hybrid out to give thanks to its Facebook fans, which now number over 100,000 strong (103,123 as of this writing).
As impressive as that number is, it does seem a bit strange that Audi USA's Facebook page has netted 7.3 million likes, 73 times what Audi's global page has received. Of course, we're not complaining about seeing the Sport Quattro Concept in action, and neither should you. Take a look below for the entire video.

2015 Audi S8

Mon, 11 Aug 2014

You've gotta hand it to the Audi A8. Last year, Mercedes-Benz launched the truly stunning S-Class, putting the rest of the high-dollar luxury flagship class on notice. With the brand-new S-Class turning heads and garnering all sorts of praise from the automotive press, classmates like the BMW 7 Series, Jaguar XJ and Audi A8 started to look, well, old. But Audi didn't see fit to just let its big sedan carry on and let the Mercedes take the cake.
So when Audi refreshed its A8 line for the 2015 model year with only minor updates, I kind of shrugged it off as just a quick way to keep the big sedan fresh until an all-new, hopefully S-Class-trumping version arrives. But then I drove the S8 pictured above, and I'm no longer so sure the Merc's shadow is as big and imposing as it once was.
Spoiler alert: the Audi S8 is simply fantastic.
