2002 Audi TT Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“The clutch experienced failure while on the highway and wouldn’t go into gear without being put into neutral first then into second gear . Then while driving one day I couldn’t put it in reverse it’s just gone so now the car will roll slightly even with the emergency brake on but I was put in danger the day it wouldn’t shift gears as it should while on the highway leaving me pretty much in fast motion but unable to continue in gear as it should which caused me to have to drift to the side of the road to then experience the effect of it being in neutral to second to continue driving however…”

“My Audi TT (2002 model) with only 25k miles has had serious drive train failures. The first incident was when traveling at 60 MPH my front left axle fell out of the drive system, and my car was thrown into a spin.

“The contact owns a 2002 Audi TT. While driving 60 MPH, the gear shifter failed to move out of first gear. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 104,000.”

“2002 Audi made a clunking noise when turning and would not shift into gear. When the consumer downshifted the vehicle from third to second gear at approximately 25 MPH the vehicle made a clunk noise. The consumer stopped the vehicle and when he attempted to move the vehicle he found that it was difficult to get it into gear. A rattling noise was also heard in the front of the vehicle. Later that month the vehicle was taken to the dealer who determined that the axle had broken.”
