Audi TT 8J 2006 - 2014 - Used, advantages, disadvantages

The Audi TT 8J was manufactured from 2006 to 2014.

The second generation Audi TT model is based on the Volkswagen Group A5. Aluminum is used for the front hull, and steel for the rear hull. The reason for this is to improve weight distribution.
All Audi TT 8Js are available with either front-wheel drive or Quattro all-wheel drive.
Versions of the Audi TT 8J 2 + 2 coupe and two-seater Roadster are available, as with the first generation.
Compared to the previous generation, the second generation Audi TT is 12.7cm longer and 7.6cm wider than its predecessor.
Initially, only a petrol variant of the engine was available, which included a 1.8-turbocharged four-cylinder engine with layered fuel injection (TFSI), a direct injection function that ensures fuel economy: a larger amount of fuel is injected in the spark plug layer (rich mixture), and in other smaller (poor mixture), or stronger variant, 2.0 TFSI.
A six-speed manual transmission has become standard in this car model, and a six-speed automatic transmission "S-TRONIC" existed as an additional option, but not on the 1.8 engine. Audi TT 8J has a completely independent rear suspension, and this system allows everyone individual point to move vertically (e.g. reaction to a hole in the road). The front suspension remained dependent.
This entire suspension system can be further enhanced with Audi's new active suspension, the Audi Magnetic Ride, which is available as an option.

The slightly less aerodynamically efficient Roadster accelerates up to 100km / h in 7.7 s, with a top speed of 223 km / h.
Average consumption, according to Audi sources, is for the Coupe variant with its 2.0 TDI engine 5.3 l / 100 km, and for the Roadster variant 5.5 l / 100 km.2008. The first Audi TT "S model" called the Audi TTS Quattro with a much improved 2.0 TFSI engine was also launched in 2.0. The engine block and cylinder head, as well as the fuel injectors, have been modified from the ground up for the new XNUMX TFSI engine.
Together with other modifications, the engine develops 286 hp with 2 to 500 Rev. / min.
The type of transmission is optional, a six-speed manual transmission, or a six-speed "S-TRONIC".
Only automatic transmission models are available in the US.
Like all Audi S models, they are only available with all-wheel drive.
The Coupe variant accelerates to 100 km / h in just 5.4s, and the Roadster in 5.6.

It has a fixed rear spoiler (can be upgraded to a retractable version).
The Coupe version accelerates to 100 km / h in 4.5 s, while the Roadster needs 4.7 and the top speed is electronically limited to 250 km / h on both models. However, in this series there is an option of a "factory" maximum speed limitation, in which case it develops speeds up to 280 km / h.
The coupe variant weighs 1450 kg and the Roadster 1510 kg.2012. the TT RS Plus was launched followed by a 2.5 turbo petrol engine with five cylinders.
