Default Bad Pressure Plate/Clutch on Brand New TT

FYI,

Picked up my new 225 coupe and experienced trouble getting the car into first gear. This happened twice in one day. I attributed it to it being a new car and/or me getting used to it, but when it happened a third time I took in to the dealership for them to look at it.

After their review they told me that the clutch needed to be replaced.

Talk about me being pissed. Brand new car and the clutch needs replacement!

Well to make a long story short, I asked the dealer to swap cars (take back the one I purchased and give me a new one) and without hesitation they did it!!!

If this is an indication of Audi's service - Audi (or at least the dealership) now has a loyal customer/fan for life.

Default My new TT had the same problem ...

Glad to hear your dealer swap a new TT for you.

I had the same problem on mine (only 500 miles) and they just replaced the clutch system on it earlier this week. Now the problem is resolved and I'm quite happy with their service, the only complain I have is it took them two weeks to get all the parts.

Default Glad they had another for you...

Personally, I had to order my TT and have never seen one on a lot that I liked, so I'm glad this worked out for you...
