I had exactly the same problem with mine. It was only 2 weeks old when it started leaking oil all over my garage. Took it in to Audi expecting them to just tighten a few bolts but they told me that the sump was porous or cracked....
They replaced the engine - no problem.

Default Hope this isn't contagious...

Wow, I guess I have company. How long did your repair take? I can't imagine they have an abundance of 225 engines laying around. Of course I'm anxious to get back behind the wheel.

I still know nothing. My TTQ is on it's way from the "nearset dealearship" to the one I purchased her from.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
My 2000 TTQ blew an engine yesturday.
Was yours covered under warranty?
I was told that I must have hit something on the road that cracked the oil pan, so it can not be covered under warranty.
Is this true? A light bump on the road would cause such extensive damage to this car?
NEED your help badly.
