Audi Tt Black Edition Configurations
Audi TT (2014) At A Glance
Sharper design with R8 styling cues. Superb interior. Improved handling. Economical range of engines.
Firm ride. Adults will struggle to fit into the rear seats.
Few cars can match the all-round appeal of the Audi TT as a sporty coupe. Lighter, faster and more economical than ever before, the third-generation TT coupe builds on the success of the previous models with a new chassis, updated engines and a radical 'virtual' cabin.
The exterior of the Audi is undeniably TT and carries the familiar coupe lines, with a sculpted bonnet, rounded wheelarches and a sloping rear end. However, the third-generation model does get some styling tweaks, inspired by the R8, with larger side air intakes, razor sharp headlights and a new six corner grille.
The third-generation TT coupe also gets a fresh new cabin, which includes Audi's innovative virtual cockpit. The 'virtual' system replaces the traditional instrument cluster, behind the steering wheel, with a 12.3-inch high-resolution LCD screen that lets the driver choose from a number of display configurations.
The interior also has a number of nice touches, such as two-tone colour styling and turbine style air vents, which feature integrated control and display for the heating, air con and heated seats. This means the cabin is a pleasant and comfortable place to be, with a supportive set of sport seats and plenty of room. But, like the old TT, the rear seats are tiny and not much use for adults.
As well as a revised platform, Audi has updated the engines with a range of four-cylinder engines, which consist of two petrols and one diesel. The 2.0 TDI comes as a front-wheel drive, but returns impressive economy with Audi claiming 67.3mpg.
The 2.0-litre petrol range starts with the 230PS unit, linked to front-wheel drive. The engine is also available with quattro four-wheel drive. Like the diesel, the front-wheel drive TT uses a six-speed manual transmission, while the petrol quattro has a six-speed S tronic automatic. There's also a performance focused TTS which uses the uprated 2.0-litre petrol with 310PS.
The TT feels a little sharper than its predecessor, with improved steering and power delivery. In fact, in our view, the Audi TT is one of the best sports coupes on the market. Admittedly, it's more expensive, but there are big improvements in standard equipment and we think it easily justifies the extra cost.

Ask Honest John
Can you recommend a sports car for a tall driver?
While not quite as tall as you (I'm a mere 6ft3), I too have issues getting comfortable in sports cars. I suppose it depends on what you want from a sports car. You could go for a hot hatch like a Focus ST or Octavia vRS which has plenty of space but if you want a 'true' sports car like a two-seater, you may be more limited. Porsches tend to have good space and plenty of seat adjustment so an early Cayman or a Boxster may suit. Similarly, an Audi TT could be worth a look. German cars tend to have more space than French or Japanese when it comes to sports cars.

I'm irritated by the EU and want to change our cars for non-European alternatives. Suggestions?
Are you familiar with the expression 'cutting your nose off to spite your face'? You could consider Jaguar Land Rover alternatives, I suppose, like the Range Rover Evoque and Jaguar F-Type. They're pretty good alternatives to your X2 and TT, although JLR is owned by Indian firm Tata.

What sports car can carry golf clubs?
How about the Jaguar F-Type Coupe? It's got a surprisingly practical boot but is fun to drive. Also consider the Audi TT or, if budget allows, the latest Porsche 911.
Answered by Andrew Brady
Is alloy wheel insurance worth paying for?
It depends on the value of the wheels and how good your parking is. With the abundance of pot holes in the road, if the wheels are expensive then it's a worthwhile addition for peace of mind.

Like many cars in the Audi range, the TT benefits from an excellent cabin, with an intelligent design and practical layout. All of the materials have a high quality feel and everything appears to have been bolted together with a sense of longevity, with solid switchgear and soft touch materials throughout.
The third-generation Audi TT also gets a 'virtual cockpit' as standard, with the system replacing the traditional instrument cluster in front of the driver with a 12.3-inch high-resolution LCD screen. As a result, all of the in-car functions are displayed on the instrument binnacle, which lets the driver access Bluetooth, media or the optional navigation via the steering wheel mounted controls.
In fact, the virtual system comes into its own with the navigation system, the foreground doubling up as a map, which makes it a lot easier to follow directions as the driver doesn't have to constantly look away from the road to see the route.
Admittedly, the system takes a little acclimatisation, but after an hour we found its use to be second nature, with a number of nice customisation options for the display of speed and rev counter. This means you can choose between sporty or standard displays.
With the infotainment neatly stored in the instrument binnacle, the Audi TT dashboard is a lot cleaner. We like the two tone styling and turbine style air vents, which feature integrated controls and display for the air conditioning and heated seats.
On the downside, with no central display, the front passenger is no longer able to browse the radio station lists or media, but we think this is a small price to pay for an attractive dash.
There's also plenty of head and leg room for both the driver and front passenger, with sports seats fitted as standard. Both are manually adjustable, finished with a high quality leather and cloth combination, but if you go for an S line model you will get full leather and electric seats included, with lumbar support and memory functions.
However, the Audi TT coupe should only be considered as a two seater. For sure, there are a set of seats in the back, but they're extremely small and even children will find it cramped for long trips.
On the plus side, Audi has enlarged the TT's boot which is now 305 litres - 13 litres more than the old model - that can be extended to 712 litres should you flatten the rear seats. Not only does this mean you can carry decent sized suit cases, but the TT will also swallow a set of golf clubs, which makes it surprisingly practical.
Standard equipment:
Sport gets 18-inch 10 spoke alloy wheels, xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights, LED rear lights, heated door mirrors, manual air con, a retractable rear spoiler, Audi drive select with five driving modes, Audi virtual cockpit, MMI control system for infotainment, keyless start, sport seats finished in part leather and a first aid kit.
S line has 19-inch five arm design alloy wheels, light and rain sensors, sports seats finished in black leather, S line badges, Led headlights, LED indicator lights and S line bumpers.

Driving Audi TT (2014)
- Engines range from 1.8 TFSI 180 to 50 TFSI quattro S tronic
- Readers report Real MPG to be between 24–61 mpg
The Audi TT coupe feels very much like its predecessor, with smooth, stable handling and plenty of grip in the corners. Admittedly, the ride is on the hard side, even on basic 18-inch wheels, but the TT is comfortable enough for long trips, with the ride settling down on motorways and dual carriageways.
There are three four-cylinder engines available - one diesel and two petrols - with the economical headliner being the 2.0-litre TDI. Limited to front-wheel drive only, the diesel returns some impressive numbers with Audi claiming 67.3mpg and 110g/km of CO2, which means it is one of the most frugal engines you can get in a sports coupe.
The diesel also packs a punch, with 184PS and 380Nm of torque, which means it will sprint from 0-62mph in 7.1 seconds. However, the 2.0 TDI is also content with general motoring duties, thanks to its refined nature, with bags of torque and minimal diesel clatter. The six-speed manual gearbox is slick too, thanks to short and precise changes and well weighted ratios, which let the driver push along urban roads in high gears.
The 2.0-litre TFSI engine range starts with the 230PS unit, with 370Nm of torque, available with either front-wheel or quattro four-wheel drive. Both set ups work well, with the quattro system giving a stronger footing in the corners and the TT feels notably more alive with the petrol option. Obviously, the frugal diesel will tempt many buyers, but if you can live with the reduced economy, the 230PS petrol would be our choice, with quattro four-wheel drive.
Economy for the front-wheel drive petrol is a claimed 47.9mpg and emissions are 137g/km of CO2. However, fit the quattro four-wheel drive system, and the economy numbers diminish to 44.1mpg and 149g/km of CO2. Like the diesel, a six-speed manual gearbox is fitted as standard to front-wheel drive models, while the quattro uses the six-speed S tronic automatic, which is our preferred choice.
There's also a performance focused TTS, which uses the uprated 2.0-litre petrol with 310PS, available with the choice of manual or automatic transmissions. The TTS has 380Nm of torque and provides strong, sports car rivalling performance, with a 0-62mph time of 4.6 seconds.
Indeed, the TTS is impressive, with solid, predictable handling and a good turn of pace, that will easily leave most hot hatches standing at the traffic lights. However, the ride is notably harder, with 19-inch wheels fitted as standard. The TTS is also not a sports car. For sure, it's quick in a straight line, but push it hard in the corners and you'll find the coupe struggles to cope with sudden and hard changes in direction.
However, for general spirted driving, the TT and TTS are more than apt for the task, with stable handling at high speed and plenty of feedback through the steering wheel. TTS and S line trim models also gets Audi magneticdampers, which improve handling and stiffen then ride.
Audi's Drive Select system is also standard across the range with five modes – auto, comfort, dynamic, efficiency and individual – which modify the throttle response, steering and shift speeds on the S tronic gearbox. The system will also adjust the four-wheel drive system on quattro models, which lets the driver modify the torque distribution or instruct it to reduce to front-wheel drive to save fuel - a first for the Audi TT.
The Audi TT also gets progressive steering, which adjusts the weighting according to your speed and how hard you turn the wheel. This means the steering always feels engaging at speed, but light and easy when it comes to low speed manoeuvres, such as parking.

What to watch out for
6-2-2015: Water ingress problems with HJ long term test car. Plastic trim of boot not fitted properly.
24-2-2016: Report of doors of new Audi TT, bought on a PCP in Spetember 2015, proving impossible to close when the ambient temperature drops below minus 2 degrees centigrade. Can take up to 10 minutes for the car to heat up sufficiently for the doors to latch.
19-10-2016: Another report of the water ingress problem (above 6-2-2015): " Just been reading your review of the TT and I note the running report where it mentions water getting into the hatch. It's happened to me too: twice. First at ca.2000 miles / 3 months The initial symptom was the rear number plate light failing . Then distinct sloshing sounds when cornering - the tailgate was full of water. Dealership had a go at draining & sealing it, but the exact same symptoms returned within a month. After 10 days in the dealership it seems to be sealed better this time; much grovelling from the Service Dept manager.
10-4-2018: Report of problems with Approved Used 2015 Audi TT 2.0 TFSI, bought with 15k miles: F irst issue was various interior rattles which seemed untraceable. Then when the weather got cold owner found both frameless front windows would get frozen completely, meaning you can't easily open or close the doors. Most recently it's been off the road for 2-weeks due to a failed clutch, which owner was not expecting on a car with such low mileage. Audi agreed to replace under goodwill but there was a bit of mumbling about 'wear and tear', etc.
9-10-2018: Report of supplying Audi dealer and AUdi UK Customer Services turning down a warranty claim for cracks in the top of the plastic side trims of seats of 2015 Audi TT Roadster S-Line 230HP DSG. Attributed to inflicted damage and not covered by warranty despite 3 of the 4 trims cracked in the same place and similar cases referenced on Audi TT user forum. Case referred to The Motor Ombudsman for consideration.
Recalls
4-11-2015: EA288 1.8TFSI and 2.0TFSI engines recalled in USA because the rear camshaft lobe is prone to unexpectedly shear off from the shaft. The failure causes reduced engine power and loss of vacuum pump power, cutting vacuum supply to the brake booster and eventually resulting in increased braking effort."A reduction in engine power and/or increased need for braking effort after vacuum reserve has been depleted while driving can increase the risk of a crash," a statement cautions. The campaign affects approximately 92,000 vehicles including the 2015-2016 Beetle, Beetle Convertible, Golf, Golf GTI, Golf SportWagen, Jetta and Passat. In notifying the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, VAG stated that the root cause of the camshaft failures has not been fully understood. The company is still continuing an in-depth failure analysis and development of a repair solution, however a fix may not be ready until the end of the first quarter of 2016.

New Audi TT revealed
At launch the new TT and TTS will be available with three four-cylinder engines featuring turbocharging and direct injection. Their power outputs range from 184PS to 310PS. The two TFSI petrol engines and the TDI combine plentiful power with trailblazing efficiency, and all feature a start-stop system as standard.
The 2.0 TDI is equipped with a manual gearbox and front-wheel drive. Helped by a strong torque peak of 380 Nm, this new sports car can accelerate from 0 to 62mph in 7.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 146mph, yet is also good for up to 67.2mpg according to the combined cycle test, which translates into emissions of 110g/km, a new record low level in the sports car world.
In the Audi TT, the 2.0 TFSI delivers torque of 370 Nm from 1,600 to 4,300 rpm. It powers the Coupe – which has a six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive – from 0 to 62mph in 6.0 seconds, and on up to an electronically governed top speed of 155mph.
Equipped with the six-speed S tronic transmission and quattro all-wheel drive, performance is even more spirited: the sprint from 0 to 62mph takes 5.3 seconds; top speed is 155mph; in this version combined economy tops out at 41.5mpg withemissions of 159g/km. The dual-clutch transmission shifts through the six gears without any noticeable interruption in traction, and in manual model it can be controlled by paddles on the steering wheel. When the Audi drive select system is set to its 'efficiency' mode, the S tronic transmission decouples and 'freewheels' each time the driver takes his or her foot off the throttle pedal.
Naturally the Audi TTS is the peak performer. It covers the standard sprint in 4.7 seconds, and its top speed is electronically governed at 155mph. Here, the 2.0 TFSI produces 380 Nm of torque between 1,800 and 5,500 rpm. Controllable flaps in the exhaust system modulate the sound and make it even richer. A manual transmission is standard, with an S tronic transmission incorporating launch control, which regulates maximum acceleration from a standstill, available as an option.
Depending on the version or options chosen, the new TT sits on wheels ranging from 17 inches to 20 inches in size, helping to convey an impression of lean muscularity from the side. At 4.18 metres long, the Coupé is almost exactly the same length as its predecessor, though its wheelbase has grown by 37 mm to 2,505 mm, making for especially short overhangs. It is 1,832 mm wide, and has the same height as the previous model at 1,353 mm.
As a 2+2 seater, the new Audi TT is a sports car that is suitable for everyday use. The load area has a capacity of 305 litres, which is 13 litres more than before, and can be extended by folding the rear seat backrests forwards.

New TT prices announced
Available to order, the new Audi TT is priced from £29,770 OTR ahead of first deliveries in December. Two specification levels – Sport and S line – will initially be offered in the UK for the all-new TT. Both include the Audi virtual cockpit, which is based around a 12.3-inch, high resolution LCD display that completely fills the driver's instrument binnacle and replaces the traditional analogue dials. Its brilliantly sharp images are courtesy of a powerful Tegra 30 graphics processor from Nvidia's Tegra 3 series.
S line specification is the most comprehensive and the most performance-oriented in the initial TT line-up. It adds larger 19-inch alloy wheels with a five-arm star design, all-weather LED headlights and LED tail lights flanked by dynamic rear indicators with a directional sweeping function and S line body styling. It also offers particularly committed drivers the no cost option to swap to tauter S line sports suspension bringing a further 10mm reduction in ride height.
On the outside, the range of nine paint colour options for Sport models includes two shades that are new to the Audi range – Tango Red and Nano Grey. The list of available colours for S line versions includes one extra choice – Daytona Grey. Another highlight exterior option is matrix LED headlights, each of which features 12 separate LED bulbs which dim individually when sensors detect oncoming or following traffic to automatically divert light around obstacles without the need to deactivate the high beam setting.

January 2017
Quattro TDI introduced
A six-speed S tronic twin-wet-clutch transmission (not the new 7-speed) is used with the 2.0 TDI engine, and appropriate distribution of the 184PS and 380Nm of torque that it channels to both axles is handled by an electro-hydraulic multi-plate clutch at the heart of the quattro system.
It incorporates wheel selective torque control for more precise and agile roadholding in all weathers. Sprint times reflect the traction advantages, with zero to 62mph in the Coupé 6.7 seconds compared to 7.1 seconds for the 2WD TDI ultra, while top speed is a creditable 145mph. In the Roadster, 62mph takes 7.0 seconds, three tenths quicker than the 2WD ultra, with a 142mph top speed.
NEDC combined fuel consumption is 52.3mpg, corresponding to CO2 of 142g/km. As a Roadster, the TT 2.0 TDI quattro S tronic returns up to 50.4mpg, with 147g/km of CO2.

TT 20 years anniversary model launched
To celebrate 20 years of the TT, a total of 999 examples of the "TT 20 years" special edition will be produced. With seats finished in fine Nappa leather in moccasin brown with specific Panuka contrasting stitching the interior of the 20 Years special edition harks back to the early cars with their 'Baseball Leather' upholstery.
"TT 20 years" badges on the steering wheel and gear lever knob also mark the car out, as do stainless steel tailpipes in a specific design, Matrix OLED rear lights and matt-finished Audi rings above the side sills. The "TT 20 years" will be available in Coupe and Roadster body styles with either Arrow grey or Nano grey paint finishes.
At the same time, the rest of the TT range get minor updates, including a 2.0-litre TFSI engine producing 197PS to replace the existing entry-level 1.8-litre engine. The existing 230PS 2.0 TFSI has been given a power boost to 245PS.
Other updates include an additional Audi Sport display in the Virtual Cockpit, as well as a new radiator grille design, larger side air inlets and new wheel and colour options.
