Default just got a TT.......got some questions

Hello, I got a 2000 TT a few weeks ago and I have a couple of issues that I'm wondering if anyone else has seen.
Sometimes when I shift from first to second, it grinds. It has only happened about 5 times, but it has me a bit concerned.

My driver's side window does not go all the way up when I shut the door. I can hear a lot of wind when I drive. Plus when I shut the door, the window rattles a bit.

The interior lock button doesn't do anything. Could this be hooked straight to a fuse? I don't know where to look on this one.

That's all I can think of at the moment. If anyone has any ideas or has seen similar stuff on this, please let me know.

Thanks,
Jeff

Default Please post exact model and new or used, for example

2000 TTQC (TT quattro Coupe)
2000 TTFC (TT FronTTtrack Coupe)

There are particular problems with particular models.

Welcome!!

Default paging MisterPTT....

He's got some first hand experience with a grind problem he had....I know he's not the only one that's seen this though.

As to the window problem...have you tried the procedure in the manual to "reset" it? I've never looked for it or tried, but others have mentioned it here....and it seems to work.

The interior lock button is a new one to me...but then again I haven't been around as long as some of the other folks here.

Might want to hit the search & also <a href="http://www.auditt.org">www.auditt.org</a> for it's FAQ.

Good luck, and congrats!
Dale

Default Some answers

1. As to grinding, dealer may have slight fix with new manual transmission oil they are now using with new TTs - car still under warranty? 180s are famous for this grinding. I have a 225 and only did it when cold. Take it easy shifting between 1 & 2, let it find the gear until it warms up

2. WIndow - put window all the way down several times - this is the usual cure

3. window noise - put some silicone spray on the rubber near the window - see of that works - if not see dealer if you're still u/ warranty

4. interior lock should work - see dealer

Clarification--180 FWD were more prone to grinding.

Default First of all...welcome to the family! : ) Secondly....

email Brad Willis with the grind issue and ask him to add you to his list. Most of us have all experienced this and he's keeping a record of it. May be the synchro...maybe the transmission...either way it all can be fixed. : )
