Audi TT Rear Shock Replacement DIY (2006-2015 Mk2 Audi TT, TTS, RS)

►Replacing the rear shocks on your Mk2 Audi TT is a straightforward and cost-effective way to refresh your suspension. Your shocks keep you comfortable as your TT drives over bumps and dips in the road, absorbing the sharp hits and smoothing out undulation. Like most suspension components, the shocks will wear out as mileage increases, leaving you with a numb and bouncy ride.
Replacing the shocks will restore a composed ride and give you a chance to upgrade your suspension. Koni and Bilstein offer improved dampers with firmer valving for shorter and stiffer springs. Pair them with a set of Eibach springs for a sportier, sharper ride.
In this video, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, Mike Hidalgo, tackles an Audi TT Mk2 rear shock replacement.

Please make the TT MK2 Series 😁😁😁

[@liamwatson925]

another briliant video pal

[@Lightning-yr5wu]

more mk2 DIYs with quattro would be nice🙂

[@domanebyrd-white1140]

Great video explaining step by step the process of installing a rear wheel shock on the Audi TT vehicle. I would like to know if you have any videos on the Audi Q7 3.6L V6 Quattro?

[@jamesk3565]

Really enjoy this, I do this job the same exact way and always recommend everything like you replaced. The only difference I do, I actually remove the lca bolt/nut from the knuckle and remove the spring just so I have extra room to torque to shock down, I know it's not 100% needed but I have OCD in my work🤣. Hope to see more VAG and JLR content!!!!

[@zdeneksochor7405]

No CCD. You put more effort and LOVE in your car. And it pays off! :)

[@user-hd1wx7gj7j]

Would love to see the timing chains on the 3.2 Quattro engine being done, not sure if it can be done with engine in situ?

[@channelwhywhywhy]

Again a brilliant video! Just bought a TT and these are super useful! Thank you. Do you have one that outlines a timing chain/belt change for a 2.0 Tfsi engine?

[@nastazioromanos9531]

Does the pass through wrench trick work for the magnetic ride shock absorber (tightening the nut on the piston rod with the shock mounting in place) or does it need different tools - i.e. a vise and a prism.

Can you guys please make video for adjusting e46 m3 coupe windows? after all these years they are need readjust so wind noise dosn't come in cabin

serpentine belt replacement--and can we volunteer our cars? lol gotta ask..

[@martini3642]

21mm bolt is a pain. You need 600 ft-lb (or more) impact gun. I used a Ryobi P262.

[@eunicebucur6898]

Did you use Penetrating fluid?

[@martini3642]

@@eunicebucur6898 yes. Wd40
