Please don't get this serviced at Halfords. An Audi specialist won't be much more if any but will have tons more experience, knowledge and care

I’ve had my 66 plate TTS since February 22 & have covered nearly 12k miles.( I’m retired ) current mileage now 42k I’ve been insured with Adrian Flux up until now, as the renewal for 2024 was nearly £650 which is double to what it has been, Managed to get it down to £450 for exactly the same cover as AF, with a different insurance company. I kept away from a newer model because of the high road tax so only paying £215 same as my previous Mercedes. I have it serviced at my local Quattro Tec & for piece of mind had them do a Haldex & oil filter & oil change & plugs,all brake pads had been replaced by the previous owner, even though the mileage was just under 30k when I bought it. I run it mainly on Shell V power & in comfort mode on long runs easily get 40.9 mpg using cruise control. Obviously a lot less when I drive it like I stole it !! 😂 Other than the issues surrounding the water dripping into the boot when opening after heavy rain..& drivers door glass squealing after the hot weather we had,( I’ve squirted silicone down the runners a few times ) but still squeals now & again 🙄 the only other problem I’ve encountered is the crappy Audi sound system as mine wasn’t fitted with the B&O & the cost of having the upgrade is ridiculous.. I also had front parking sensors fitted, as for some reason Audi didn’t fit them as standard cost around £800 at a VAG Retrofit, so I get Audible & visual both ends.. I absolutely love the car & what it gives & would recommend buying one ..

Enjoy the car. Some little upgrades I did with mine inc getting the callipers painted (I went red) and the hubs painted silver (they all go rusty). It’s worth getting a resonator delete done to give it a bit more of a sportier tone and making sure u update the virtual cockpit so u can get the sport dial view, update the maps, add apple carplay etc. Depending on your audio tastes and the cars setup you might want to add a sub in the back to give it some decent bass. I also upgraded my front speakers to audison. Well chuffed with the sound now.

Had my TTS for over 5 years now, and the only negative thing I can say about it is it gets no where near its official mpg figures (we all know VAG doesn't lie on these consumption figures, so it must be my fault) 😂 Also look into the Audi 'All-in' package. I get servicing, MOT, warranty & breakdown all for £29.99 a month. Currently they have a -25% offer on too 🙌🏻

How's the reliability? I'm 19 and I'm looking to get the 2017 tt. I know parts are going to be expensive but I'm curious how often will this break down especially If I'm getting a used one with at least 90k mileage..

It’s a reliable car from my experience. Mines on 60k miles and I’ve done about 5k miles in it from when I bought it. And it’s not had a single problem. Just had it serviced too and they mentioned the car is in good shape 👌 hope you get the car! 👊 There’s always some minor common problems with every car and the TT is no different but it shouldn’t break down as long as it’s been looked after well and you treat it well too.

I am the original owner of a 2016 TT with 96,000 miles. Car has been Stage 1+ ECU/TCU by Unitronic since 5,000 mi. Other than routine oil every 5,000 mi, I've done three DSG/Haldex oil changes, one transmission mount, two cam shaft actuators, one water pump, one battery, coil packs and one complete change of brakes and one valve carbon cleaning at the same time the water pump was done. I software upgraded the car myself to CarPlay and TTS centre display.

U r very fortunate to get to enjoy this car so young :) - To help keep it running well, try looking at 'all in' Audi cover which your car should b eligible for - seems to cover everything, even servicing for c £30pcm :)

@@logandonaldson sounds encouraging, what mpg do u get: motorway cruise overall backroad blast mixed with general no motorway Comparing the 1+ against standard - how good? Comparing with other very fast cars u have driven? Will it really hit 60 under 4 secs as utubers claim? Camshaft actuators replacement - how much? water pump replacement - how much? Best legal supporting mods / £ for the St 1+ Thanks :)

@@davidstuart4915 I can get 31-33 mpg US on a long highway drive, in UK that would be 37-40 mpg. The tune did not affect fuel economy, in fact, it might have made it a bit better. I don't launch the car a lot but it low 4's sound about right with a tune. It's noticeable. The car had a stage 2 tune and unitronic downpipe for a while but I didn't like the drone. The launches were definitely improved and more brutal. Stage 1 enchances the car, Stage 2 changes the car substantially. And louder since you may give up a resonator to install a downpipe. A camshaft actuator is about 90 GBP, the engine will misfire, through a code and be generally miserable especially at high rpm. The part installs in 10 min with three bolt on the left hand side of the engine. There are two of them for intake and exhaust. Water pumps can be costly. The water pump on mine died at 123,000 km just under the class action lawsuit claim limit in Canada. When the water pump dies, it can be good to get a valve carbon cleanup because everything is apart anyways. Budget 500-600 GBP considering amount of labour involved. The timing chain still has lots of life in it. You can put CarPlay on it easily if it doesn't have it already. You can add the sport display too easily. The car is now at 99,000 miles. It has had the same set of brakes for nearly 60,000 mi. Four corners of brakes is cheap for a TT because parts are easily found. I change oil every 5,000 mi. I change DSG fluid every 35-40,000 mi. These cars thrive on regular maintenance. If you're interesting in modding and performance, it is worth considering a TTS. In Canada, the TT generally shipped fully loaded with S-line bits, it may be different in the UK.

Oh no you indicated. Not a sign of a TRUE audi driver! ☺ I jest, I'm due to hopefully get one myself. Trying to find one that's below the 200 quid mark for tax as that'll help with the maintenance costs

Seems very high mileage for the price…if you’re looking in that price range I’d recommend getting something around 100k miles…if it’s a normal TT then there should be some out there for cheaper or with less miles. 👍

Yeah it all depends on your circumstances and how modified your car is, so it will be different for everyone. But I did get a good quote from Admiral for smaller modifications 👍

Don't rely on the fuel computer for consumption! Work it out the old fashion way, be surprised if you get 30/35mpg round town.

@The_Car_Yard 8 ай бұрын
Driving in efficiency mode and sensibly in a small town gets me about 34mpg. When I’m in a city that’s when it goes down to like 20 or less, depending on traffic. Then on open roads. The best it’s ever been is 44mpg, but that’s going under speed limit and not ragging it at every opportunity and driving at same speed for like 2 hours😅but still. Decent figures for a fast car, if you drive carefully.

"its German engineering" - Told adamantly by a Hungarian descendent friend "Its built in HUNGARY!" And it also has stickers that confirm this fact in the engine bay.
@The_Car_Yard
@The_Car_Yard 5 ай бұрын
Sure it's assembled in Hungary...however Audi is a German brand and under the Volkwagen Group umbrella. On top of that... all the design work for the original TT was done by a mixture of German and American designers, led by J Mays and Freeman Thomas, both worked for Volkwagen at the time. So it's safe to say its german engineered but assembled in Hungary.
