Wacko sensors

Written by: heymike on Mar 24, 2008 03:26 PM

I bought my 2001 TT turbo roadster 96,000 miles ago in Ohio. I was "working on the road" for some of that time/miles, so got service in various states/dealerships. In 2005, the EPC warning light came on, along with a grating sound and feel. The local dealer's Audi diagnostic computer said defective YAW sensor, which was changed. Same problem reoccurred in 2006 ... Read More...

Odometer is going nuts

Written by: shirlgirl on Nov 29, 2007 11:29 AM

I have a 2001 Audi TT Quattro and recently the odometer has been jumping up in mileage. My commute to work is 10 miles ...when I get to work I notice the odometer shows that I've driven 85 miles. Some days that 10 miles to work equates to 3 miles. Other days, 300+ miles. What's going on? And how do I get it fixed? Any recommendations to non-Audi dealer shops in Northern ... Read More...
