    Default Audi TT Coolant Temperature Sensor Failure

    A failed Coolant Temp Sensor is causing my Check-Engine light to stay lit on my 2002 TT. The dealer says this is a $400 job (parts and labor). Car has only 55,000 miles. Seems like an unlikely problem (and expense) on a "young" high-quality car. Have others had this experience?

    Hello,

    Failing Temp sensors are very common issue with the TT'S. There was even a extended warranty for the Temp sensor on few TT'S, Extended warranty of 10 years or 100,00 miles, not sure if your model has it.

    Regards

    Thanks for the follow-up. It's somewhat comforting to know that your car isn't the only one with the problem.

    Hey,

    Seems like the problem is with your temperature sensor. Rather than concentrating on the fan, concentrate on the sensor chip and if possible get that replaced by a servicing. Also check the fan pack relay and the fuses. I'm sure your problem will be solved.
