Every Audi Tt model year
Pass rates fall as cars age, so the only fair comparison for a 2015 car is other cars of the same age. The full run for the Audi Tt:

What this means if you are buying a 2015 Tt
The 2015 is one of the stronger years for this model, passing 8.3 points more often than the Audi Tt average. That is a point in its favour, though condition and service history still matter more than the model year.

What an 11-year-old car fails on
A 2015 car is 11 years old now, and age drives the failure mix more than the badge does. Across all cars tested, these are the categories that actually cause failures:
- Lights and electrical: 10.36% of all cars tested
- Suspension: 8.65% of all cars tested
- Tyres: 6.23% of all cars tested
- Brakes: 6.1% of all cars tested
- Visibility: wipers, washers, glass: 4.65% of all cars tested
- Body, chassis and structure: 3.18% of all cars tested
That is around average, so condition and service history will tell you more than the odometer does. On a 2015 Audi Tt the average at test was 62,227 miles, so treat anything far above that as a car that has worked harder than its peers, and anything far below as one worth checking for the faults that come from standing still.
The strongest year for this model is 2019 at 92.2%, and the weakest in our data is 1999 at 62.4%. That 29.8 point spread across the model's life is why comparing a 2015 car against a newer one tells you very little.
