Audi TT

Maguire comes through ... mostly

Written by: protruth on Jun 06, 2009 05:10 PM

The Maguire Audi dealership in Ithaca, New York, faced with a Lemon Law arbitration decision favoring me, refunded my purchase price in full ... except they wanted to deduct the value of wheel scrapings on 3 of the 4 alloy wheels. I let them have their oz of flesh regardless that 2 of the 4 wheels were scraped while the Lemon Law Arbitration proceedings were in progress. ... Read More...

My 2008 Audi TT 3.2 L Quattro declared a Lemon

Written by: protruth on May 20, 2009 02:56 PM

Reporting back. An Arbitrator appointed by the NY State Attorney General has found that my 2008 Audi TT 3.2 L Quattro has a serious defect, an ear-splitting squeal emitted by the front brakes, and declared the car a Lemon. I was awarded the nearly $50,000 purchase price. It is now up to Audi USA and its dealer Maguire Audi, Ithaca, NY, to pay up, take their defective ... Read More...

2008 Audi TT brake squeal

Written by: protruth on May 08, 2009 07:24 AM

I have heard or read every single excuse by mechanics in the USA and Great Britain: front brake squeal is "normal", and Europeans expect brake squeal on a "high performance" car often run on a no-speed-limit Autobahn. The TT is a sporty-LOOKING car but was built for street driving, not racing on a track. Audi has built a "high performance" R8 which is regularly ... Read More...

I too chose the 2.0 liter turbo over the 3.2 6-cyl engine because I knew the turbo car could be turned into a road-eating monster with just a few upgrades. Apr chip tuning to stage 2+, Neuspeed cold air intake, high-pressure fuel pump, 3-inch downpipe and twin exhausts did the trick on my turbo. I now take out Infiniti G35-37 coupes and haven't even added an intercooler ... Read More...

Thanks for the reply, dorkbrand. You're about half an hour away from me. I actually went to CarMax today to get my car appraised, but their offer was lower than what I owe. Otherwise, I really would have loved to take over your lease. I can probably sell my car to a private party for a better price, but it may not be fast enough for you. If you'd like to continue this conversation ... Read More...

Hi dorkbrand, I don't know the exact details of taking over a lease; just that it's definitely possible. There are costs associated for the actual transfer, and all the paperwork to transfer the lease is taken care of by the leasing company. If you visit the leasetrader website, they have an overview of how the process goes. Are you in Southern California, by any ... Read More...
