Default 5 days old and already having problems!

I got in the tC today and I noticed that my driver's seat was making a oise and moving out of adjustment. The seat angle moves about an inch forward or backward when you touch it.

The gas pedal also clicks loudly when you press it about halfway in. Neither of these things had been happening until tolday.

I guess I'll have the dealer look at it when I take it in tomorrow to have them remove the acid etching from the roof glass.

I am sad. Its a brand new car and already having little problems here and there!

The gas pedal thing I had too, it went away after a while though. It's because the spring (to actuate it back up to you) is pretty tight. It'll go away, but have it replaced if you want.

I had the same clicking with my clutch pedal. I figured it just needed to be adjusted.

Of course that doesn't matter now since I'm getting another new tC.

Good luck with the problems. Hopefully it will all work out.

I've not had either of those problems. Take it back to the dealer post haste.

Congrats on the new tC. Those are very LITTLE problems easily fixable by the dealer.
