Default Taking the TT in to the dealer tomorrow. Anyone want to play a game?

Here are the symptoms, what do you think the dealer will say?

Oil Change--have own oil: (this is a gimme)

ESP light has been coming on for no reason:

Slight stutter on acceleration and with constant throttle pressure:

Car is getting harder to get into reverse--last time I was diagnosed with possible synchro issues:

And I purposely let the car get down to 1/8 tank of gas to give it a better chance of dying:

Winner gets.........something.

Default I have no clue, but I AM having majority of the issues. The sputtering while on throttle too!

Also the ESP light does come on as well some times it goes off by it self, some times I have to restart.

Default I'll try

1) They'll fill with some old dino oil laying around and keep your shiny synthetic for themselves

2) Wheel speed sensor, intermittent fault

3) Misfires, new packs and plugs recommended

4) Could just be in need of linkage adjustment or new trans fluid but they'll want to replace the whole thing

They'll try to get you into a 2008 TT with "low payments".

If it is the ECU, it's an 8 year/80,000 mile warranty.

Default hmmm....ok i will play>>>

1) they fill the car with ATF instead of the oil you provide...;-P

2) I vote MAF and tie this to your stutter/hesitation.

3) replace gear oil with synthetic....could be a sign of clutch wear or you may need to flush your brake fluid/hydraulics (a bit of a stretch).

That is all....
