Hi all.

I purchased my 2008 TT 3.2 about a year ago with 158k miles. I'm loving it! The thing runs like a charm and now that I have close to 170k miles, I'm wondering if anyone has experience with with a TT having this many miles? Any tips/suggestion on what I should be on the looking out for? I drive the car almost everyday, and I want to make sure I keep it going for another 100k.

Thanks!

Nice report. The 3.2 is a solid engine. Is your car DSG or manual? If DSG, be sure to service on schedule. Also keep the Haldex drive serviced too. They are not known to be problematic but don't tempt fate.

Thanks for the reply. It's a 6 speed manual. Other than oil, brakes and tires, the last 12 months have been pretty maintenance free.

Do you, or anyone else have any thoughts on the oil that is supposedly made for high mileage vehicles? In addition to any other advice, I was wondering if I should be making a change over to that type.

No not really. I run Mobil 1 0-40 in my 160k mile TT, my 55k mile TT and in my 25k mile S5. All go the full 10000 mile service interval without having to add any.

Isn't the recommended replacement interval on its timing chain 110K miles?
