Default Winter Driving

Hi There!

I just purchased my first Audi - a 2002 Quatro TT, 5-speed in June,
I LOVE MY CAR!!! However, I am concerned about driving it in winter.

Has anyone driven a TT all year 'round up here in the mid west? I sure would love to hear from you, especially if it's good news!!

Thanks,
Mikki

You'll be fine, it has quattro after all. Just be careful not to take any bumps too fast. don't want to hurt your bumper.

Just drive slow. As long as you have driven in the snow before you will be just fine.

Sometimes I think Audi's were made for snow.

If you have ESP , electronic stability program, the car will not fishtail.

If you have problems with traction , www.tirerack.com for winter tires.
