Hi and thanks for the welcome.
I am happy to report that the only problem I am experiencing with my TT is probably down to my ineptitude.
I have very little time to go back to the dealer with what could be an embarrassing problem (being a bit thick!) so I wonder if a forum member can help.
I have a USB connection in the glove box. I have followed the handbook to the letter (including sourcing recommended USB keys) but cannot get the mp3 files to play. I have sat nav + if this helps - or hinders.
The SD card mp3 plays without a problem - I am using the same files to test the USB sticks so the file type is verified and usable. Any help gratefully received.

I'm not lucky enough to own a new TT...maybe one day.....I am an IT expert though and it maybe due to the USB file format. I assume you use the SD card in your PC as well if you right click and check the properties it should say NTFS or more likely FAT/FAT32 check to see if the USB key is the same. If not you should be able to format it in the format that works for the SD Card ;)

Thanks Rob, I'll give it a go. I hope that being an IT expert gets you into a new TT one day - I'm 53, it was worth the wait....

CD changer using the
controls on your car's sound system.
To start the memory stick or MP3 player, select the “CD changer”
function on the sound system.
The following functions are available:
• Play all tracks stored on the memory device (if no folders are
stored on the memory device)
• Select and play up to six main folders with music files (just like
selecting CD 1 to 6 on a CD changer)
• Change between main folders with music files (just like changing
the CD on a CD changer)
• Change tracks within a main folder
• Fast forward/rewind within a track
• SCAN
• Play tracks in random or shuffle mode
For more information on how to operate the system, please refer to
the “CD” chapter in the operating manual for your sound system.
Notes
Here are some tips and points to remember when playing music
files in the car:
• We recommend that, instead of storing music files in the main
directory of the memory stick or MP3 player, you create separate
folders e.g. for tracks belonging to the same genre or artist. Your
sound system can display and play a maximum of six folders,
however. The folders are allocated first in numerical order and then
in alphabetical order as CD 1 to CD 6. Folders which do not contain
music files are ignored. You can create any number of subfolders.
• If there are no folders on your memory device, the sound system
will allocate all the music files it finds to CD 1.
• Track numbers appear with a maximum of two digits in the
sound system display. The first digit is suppressed if you select a
track with a three-digit number, i.e. track 125 and track 25 are both
displayed as track “25”. For this reason we do not recommend allocating
more than 99 tracks to each folder.
• We recommend you not to use the “Name CD” function on vehicles
with the BNS 5.0 navigation system, as the folders may not be
named correctly.
• For international users, please note that letters with an umlaut
(“ä”, “ö”, “ü”) are at the end of the alphabet.
The following music formats are supported:
• mp3 (MPEG1 Layer3 from 32 to 320 kbps)
• wma (from 8 to 192 kbps)
• wav (11.025, 22.050 and 44.1 kHz sampling frequency with 16-bit
encoding, stereo)
• ogg vorbis (up to q10, 48 kHz, stereo)
DRM music formats are NOT supported.
Caution
Never store important data on the memory stick or MP3 player. Audi
shall not accept any liability whatsoever for the loss of data or
files. automatically when you switch off
the sound system or the ignition. The USB port stores the position
of the last track you were playing. If you do not alter the contents of
your memory device, the music will be continued at the point where
you stopped playing.
MP3 players and USB sticks which are not explicitly approved by
AUDI AG must have “CERTIFIED USBTM” or “CERTIFIED HIGH SPEED
USBTM” status.
Approved MP3 players
Approved memory sticks
Caution
• Do not connect a device other than a memory stick or MP3 player
to the USB port. It is not possible to operate hard disks, USB hubs,
etc. via the USB port.
• Do not plug an MP3 player directly into the USB port - this could
damage the equipment.
• Never remove a memory device when the USB port is selected as
source (CD). This could damage your memory device.
Note
For up-to-date information on compatible MP3 players and USB
sticks, please ask an Audi dealer or visit www.audi.com.

Thanks for your help, problem solved - so simple! How did I get into this position? I read the manual - see for yourself- page 36 of the Navigation System Plus (RNS-E) it says "Switch the audio source for the sound system to RADIO"!!!
Last time I read a manual!:aargh4:
