Does it feel like the rear skips left or right over bumps?

That makes sense. I will get the alignment checked.

Default Yes, mine does this also. With a recent alignment and brand new tires....

with correct pressures (36/33) for 18's according to Audi's specs. My car has the MKII factory suspension that was replaced by a local dealer before I bought the vehicle. My car has a mere 44k on the odo so I have to have to deduce that the TT's all have this due to the tight factory suspension and shocks. Some may not notice it as much due to running a larger profile tire then us 18'ers, or having aftermarket suspension that changes the center of gravity on the car, again making it less noticeable. There's a lot of factors but I have no reason to believe it's a flaw or problem with my car. Just means everything's really tight and sporty. Ever driven a F1 car over a deep manhole cover? You'd experience the same thing.

Default My parents passat had the same thing.

I would be driving along on the freeway and hit a bump and it felt like the back end of the car was doing a speed wabble. It would sort of bounce out to the side. This condition happened twice through the years. They fixed it with new shocks.
