SARAH,hello im cancer surviver and it is hard for me to work on my 87 mustang but i do what i can, seeing u stay positive is great for me, so keep going!🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧
Keep well Mike... 🤨
Best wishes from the Emerald Isle... 😎👍☘🍺
Best wishes from Florida! Stay positive, focused and get that 'stang out of the corral!☺
I am really, REALLY, happy you enjoyed the framed MR2 advertising! ♥️
It was created with the idea of making you smile and probably the package arrived in the right moment, considering the unlucky weekend events with the TT 😣
You spent a lot of time and money on that car, so you can't give up now, you know right?
Take your time, do your research, curse if necessary, but continue the job: I wanna see that fucking car hitting the road again with you in the driver seat 😉💪🏻🛠️
The TT has provided a huge amount of quality content for your videos, in my humble opinion, you have done an amazing job for home shop work on an Audi!!
On my first day on the job as a mechanic, a seasoned mechanic looked me dead in the eyes and I'll never forget when he said "Are you SURE you want to be a mechanic?". I thought about that day many, many times. Keep your head up Sarah
Sarah you are such an inspiration to me. You never give up, you stay positive, & we love you for that & all the hard work you do for us. I think your a great person, & you are appreciated.
There's always a silver lining after all that trouble with the TT, mailtime with people that give you awesome gifts, your audience loves you Sarah! 🐧
Keep going Sarah, you'll get there! Just replaced the clutch on my 225 TT project. Just over 18 hours including time to clean everything and of course replace the engine rear oil seal and the transmission input shaft seal. None if it was particularly difficult, it's just that there are a lot of parts to come off before dropping the transmission.
Your vids show the real side of project cars! Most of us hit obstacles and have headaches but you inspire us to push through. Thanks for that and another great video!
Oh yay, we've reached the "set it on fire and push it down a hill" Part of a project car build.
Maybe you can send her some matches and a petrol soaked penguin, as a gift.
Shit.
...why waste a match, just leave it on the side of the road, since that seems to be its natural habitat.
@@K03sport Because that's not nearly as satisfying
have to agree; seeing the additional repairs on video won't be much fun anyways...unless you do mail time on each vid!
I understand how frustrating that TT has been. I have great respect for your dedication to finishing this project. Good job, Sarah!!
I've ALWAYS wanted a project car ... unitil I saw this video.
It's ALWAYS like this... U Repair some stuff, make a test Round.. "FUCK"... there comes a lot more to fix :D
My project car still runs, thank God!!!
Worst decision u can make, money pit
Suggestion for a project car - older Ford F-150. Plusses - rear wheel drive, plenty of room to work, lots of cheap parts, it's a truck. Minuses - none.
Fantic1980, Teeter Tot is cool BUT, for true masochism, get an A4, 3.0 V6, Quattro! Audi’s as a whole are hair pulling money pits. But me having owned 7 Bimmers and 2 Mercs I figured I was up for an 02, A4 3.0 Quattro? NYET! I am too stubborn to let that car get the best of me! I have the answer, a massive amount of Bailey.s Irish Cream, warshteiner dark beer and the half gallon size of Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey whiskey. I’ll win!
You have the resolve therefore you will succeed! Keep at it!... Your audience keeps growing and there is a reason for that. You are doing things right !!!
You're getting a lot of love in that Mail Time, Sarah. Never forget there are people out here who care about you! Now, go stuff a penguin family in a center console!
I really appreciate your commitment and love for this project. I've had multiple times the feeling seen you wondering if it's still worth to work on, but you continue with it. Keep up the good work!
Best. Mail-time. Ever! ❤️👍🏻 And mad respect to you for not giving up on Teeter Tot! 👊🏻
Lol, did I hear what I thought I heard @ 14:17-14:19?!?!?! We all love ya!
Don't we all Sarah... 🙄😂
Sarah, we just watched your video, and I told my partner that I wish we still lived in Tucson, I would offer our help to Sarah for the TT. We are both VW guys and big fans of your channel.
Sarah,
I bought a 05 Jetta GLI MK4 about 2 years ago when we lived in Tucson, it had a ton of issues. The MK4 Jetta is very similar to the TT. This was around the same time we found your UA-cam channel. Your channel was inspirational when I wanted to push my Jetta off of Mount Lemmon, weekly...
We are rooting for you and the TT !!!
Arizonian here Sarah as well; 1 year ago I got a 00 TT and that car didn't saw much love in its life. But my 5 year old daughter loved when I took her to school on the "green avocado" as she calls it and my 3 yo twins enjoyed any trip on it. Your videos on Tater Tots keeps us motivated to also fix our avocado wich has been parked right now because it needs an exhaust manifold gasket. Also you are an awesome influenze on my girls that now they want to help me whenever Im working at any project at home kudos to you for that chica, keep the videos on Tater Tots flowing and very happy that you wont give up on it.
On a positive note, the suspension has settled nice and it looks to sit well
right? I caught that as well.
Agreed, and the brakes and wheels look awesome too.
I had the clutch go out after I bought my Tiburon V6 project car from a friend but before I even got a chance to take it home (they broke it...😜). Bought an engine hoist and did it right there in the farm yard by myself over a weekend hours from home shop. These projects are a labor of love and you got this! It's the size of the fight in the dog that matters most. It will be a great story when you finally finish it and car people love sharing epic car stories.
Aww. I feel for you Sarah, after all that work you've put in. You've come this far, don't give up on little ol' teeter tot!
Really appreciate you showing the pains of DIY projects and the things that can go wrong. Still in it to win it! Don't give up.
You are such a sweetheart, high class of course. You made me smile with tears over the penguins. Good luck on the transmission/clutch and hope someone donates what you need.
Had a 2002 VW Beetle turbo with way to much to list. 480 hp on nitrous to the front wheels, was always breaking motor mounts, and blew 2 diffs totally destroying the transmission case each time. Fun times, until it got stolen back in 07. Current project is an Acura TSX. I know I'm late to the game but keep it up, don't give up. Loving the channel.
Sarah, I'm so happy you are going to fix the TT. Looking forward to more videos on it.
Lovely to see an old TT again, many miles of fun memories driving my old 2005 TT with vr6 and dsg transmission, decade of fun
When I saw RIP TT 😭 I thought it was the end. I am so glad you are going to fix it. Your a hell of a woman and a hell of a mechanic 👊
Sarah, you are inspiring with your perseverance and ingenuity when working on cars. I wish I had your videos as reference when I started wrenching. So many projects could have been saved. When you get down, just remember all of lives you have impacted especially the young ones that are inspired to pick up a wrench and follow in your footsteps.
On another note, I really like how your videos flow. Most jumpcuts are discordant but yours flow smoothly. The effort you put into making your videos shows. High class indeed with a great sense of humor.
"Endeavour to persevere. "Mail time was hilarious. Hang in there,Sarah.
Sorry to hear about your flywheel. We got you!
From a TT owner to another.. Hang on and be patient.. When its done you wont regret it!
Futurensen yes you will speaking from an EX tt owner. Cars garbage after 100,000
(in a time warp) - those German exotics are a different animal. They draw you in on every and any little repair. It's almost as if it wants you to open books, study everything to understand its bloodline/s. In other words; it wants you to learn everything from a German engineering perspective before it can driven/appreciated properly.The love comes after it immersises you in the German Heritage of engineering. IT WILL BE WORTH IT Sarah-n- Tuned ✨
Sara you are so entertaining, you have a great work ethic and your soooooooo funny!😂🥰👍👌🎉🎉
I low key geek out on ads/brochures for cars that we own, that is so cool that people sent those to you! I know you will get things fixed on the TT, you seem determined 💪🏻!!!
"I don' tgive up!"
That's the best thing I heard in this video.
Ercan I enjoyed the “I need to get laid” comment
I just purchased an old TT this week as my little project car . I really hope that I don't have anything like the issues that you've been having but these videos will be my inspiration to work through it.
you have made me realize I never want an Audi. Thank you for saving me thousands of dollars and 100's of hours of my life. But I admire your persistence and resolve.
I have an Audi TT MK2......had it for 3 years and its never let me down yet and its a daily driver. The moral of the story is....dont buy a shit one in the first place.
I've had a 6-sp 2001 225HP Quattro TT for ... 18 years now. got about 150K miles as my daily driver, and honestly, no major service required (other than timing belt, fluid changes, brakes, tires). It even managed to take me through a blizzard on icy roads in Oregon for hundreds of miles, while being only moderately scary :).
Hey Sarah, I got my TT back together only to find the temp and fuel gauges are cooked - and not just the motors, its the chip that controls them. These TT's fight you every step of the way, but stay strong, go work on something fun then come back to the TT. Getting the engine and gearbox out is not that difficult, the whole front end comes off so you can drop the engine onto a pallet or trolley and pull it out - you don't have to take it out the top. I've seen plenty of people do it on their own, just be methodical and take the time you need. Go Sarah !
Damn girl you just can't catch a break at all on this car, hope everything gets better
no, I did, I caught it in my elbow when the car sent me flying across the garage 2 weeks ago. lol
@@SarahnTuned Hahaha good enough break lol, you got the TT from our neck of the woods, we are down in the Southeast corner of Ut 6 Hrs south of Salt Lake, keep up the good work and don't give up on TT Sarah, thank you for the awesome videos
There is no crying in motorsports, except when you get cool stuff in the mail. Congrats on the haul of neat things, and proud of you and what you do. Keep it up, keep the faith.
I had the exact thing happen to my 2004 a4. Replaced it with a single mass flywheel from JH
motorsports.
Don’t know why this channel was suggested to me but I’m stoked to watch the whole build of this TT.
Honestly I wrench a lot on my own as well on my Jeep xj and my wife’s new Cherokee and seeing your drive and work so far gives me hope that my daughter will take after me a little bit and wanna get her hands dirty and work on her cars too. Btw I hope you keep the TT and eventually fix it, good luck
Had my transmission in and out twice recently with some clutch issues- just keep rolling 😊
Hey Sarah, I feel your pain. I just spent months rebuilding the front suspension, complete cooling system and timing components on My A4 SLine Ultra Sport Only to find it had blown head gasket/cracked head/worse..? Anyway, don't get down & don't give up. The TT will rise again. I have faith and you have guts. Hope to see you on the road sometime.
Love your reaction to the penguins! And the Audi booklets. Don’t give up on the car now you’ve got this far.
Who doesn’t love penguins!
I'm soooooo glad u gonna continue the build. I understand your frustration. I really hope u get a sponsor for that clutch. U do awesome work from a garage by yourself. We enjoy watching u do what u do.
You, young lady, are amazing!!! Incredible channel, made even better by a truly lovely heart and smile.
I feel bad that you are single, but the selfish part of me says -- paws off buddy, I want more videos from Sarah -n- Tuned
And now, you discovered the flywheel bolts are loose , a couple of the crankshaft bolt holes needed to be helicoiled, more cleaning, resprayed the TT , new Borla exhaust, front and rear sway bars , hours of cleaning all the wax spray rust protection off the chassis and floor panels, it’s gonna be awesome!! And some lucky viewer will buy some Merchandise and then win you TT! Fantastic! Bet you were not thinking that when you posted this! Keep up with your great content! Thanks!!
HI my new awesome friend! !!..I absolutely love how you love working on cars. You are the most awesomeness girl to have around. Keep up the videos with you on cars Johnny from Chicago. ..
Kudos for bringing the 2 hardest vehicles to work on back to life. Just the fact that you came this far says your more dedicated than 99% of car hobbyists
LOL 14:15 there are so many helpers out there, me one of them just call! lol
Throw an audi transmission replacement party!
@@Cyrix2k doesn´t have to do with the transmission, more missonairy :D
It is incredibly frustrating when this stuff happens I know but full marks for digging in and pushing on, the videos are still great to watch!
I’ve spent since February this year stripping, welding and respraying my 1973 Triumph Stag, no putting it back together with every part rebuilt. I am dreading and looking forward to the first drive- probably next Spring!- as I know I will find all the bits I got wrong 😬
VW/Audi tech here. Can confirm, sounds just like a failed dual mass flywheel.
invisblegt correct I just replaced mine
XD
Yup, noticed some rough gear changes, also sounds like over run on the boost. Anyone else hear it ????
Yup had something similar happen to me in my roadster, downshifted into second coming into a corner, then bam, that noise exactly. Dual mass flywheel had separated from itself inside the bell housing
You have the best channel on UA-cam. I just love your quirkiness. Keep the great videos coming.
"I'm not a Ho, I'm High Class" the car might not love you, but I sure do. Single cat lady and all. Keep up the great work!
Keep going. They are worth it. I had a few stupid headaches with mine (nothing like you have gone through)...it's run sweet for 2+ years and love it. Hope I haven't jinx it now!
14:18 my favorite part ! :)
x thought I was the only one who caught that! Lmao
I love the TT. Even your set backs are worth watching. It makes it real.
you're just all kinds of gorgeous..... and you work on cars !! LOVE IT !!
Awesome job on the TT. The sound your hearing is the dual mass flywheel is coming apart. You can do a Single Mass Flywheel conversion. Keep positive,
You should find someone who has access to worldpac. They sell cheap oem parts usually over night shipping as well.
Mr Sparkle oh yea worldpac is the shit
So glad that you’re not giving up on the tot, I refuse to give up on my AEB Quattro! I started watching your channel because of this car and now I get to go binge watch all the videos of the MR2.
Next episode: Humble mechanic and Sarah fixed the TT!
Mick Doohan his video on dual mass flywheels was the first thing I watched when this happened.
That would be the best
Crossover episode!
2 humble mechanics ? 🙄🥰
How much fun would that be!!!!
Hi Sarah, I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Project TT Quattro series. The TT was somewhat of a dream car for me when it came out many penguins ago, so I followed your adventures in restoration with great interest.
Honest heartfelt prayers, I warned you about Audi's in the beginning.
power breaks clutches on the 1.8t. I had mine go on my 1.8t a3 S3 QUATTRO, only 275hp. HELL to change but hey, it got done by me and a buddy, no lift, just jack stands and an engine crane. Get a single mass kit from ECS, dirt cheap and superb performance. LOVE your content, your a dream.
“I’m not a ho, I’m high classed!” 🤣
My S3 was the same sorta thing - cant catch a break... Eventually sorted it and I'm enjoying hooning around in it! dont give up - these cars are really fun to drive with the suspension sorted
0:51 daaaaammmm.
Thanks for the info Daniel! Really good stuff! Fwad.
Daniel Fennec that’s a negative Daniel. It’s not desperation, but rather admiration. Take a look at how well attractive females working on cars do in the world of UA-cam vs men. It will blow your mind. Sex sells and always will.
I am sure it's been mentioned but the DMF has a tendency to have a higher failure rate, just be glad it did not explode. When replacing mine on a VW golf it was recommended to move to a SMF and step it up a notch. I am actually not surprised it failed on the TT with all your improvements in performance you done. I know you've struggle with this car but its come along ways and you've done a great job!!!
Any more content coming for the Audi TT? It's been a while and I haven't seen any updates.
i love how clean you keep your shop!
cleaning the shop is like purging your mind. let's you focus.
First again!!!
Wow, this is either stellar timing that I just happen to be sitting at the computer, or I have absolutely no life... Starting to think it's the latter of the two... 😂
Sarah, keep your head up & stay positive, and good things will happen.
My mate can change a transmission and clutch in a day eg 8 hours but he's in Scotland soz
Derek Mills what does that have to do with anything lol
Hi I own a tt convertible 2008 I love my Audi tt don't give up on it there a great car cheer's.
@@scottmcnabb9122 if u stay round the central belt of Scotland ma mate is a audi bm specialist I'm only gm and the rest of the shite I get at work usally GM shite lol
@@derekmills1429 Maybe your mate can fly from the central of Scotland to Tucson Arizona, change Sarah's transmission and clutch in a day, then get home for dinner - the next day :-)
Well Sarah- I feel your pain. Having owned an A6 turbo and an A8, they are great cars but a major pain to work on. And there is no way around it- to do anything, the front has to come off. On the bright side, it will be great when it is finished. Oh! and cudos for the safety wire. My boss gave me a can years ago, and it always comes in handy. Airplane or not.
Running a scan tool on a TT should be a Holloween episode
PLEASE SAVE THE TT AND FIXED IT. Love your channel. You explain what you do when things go from bad to worse without editing your video or removing scenes when you make mistake(s). This is real life car fixing showand please, continue your excellent work.
14:18 is what everyone has been waiting to hear!
HAHAHAHA, I missed it the first time around :D
thanks for pointing it out
I'm sure she can have her pick.. When she needs it
Stand aside I will take one for the team.
My first thought was to get rid of it but you are completely correct to keep it for the reasons you said. It must be possible for someone, other than an 'Authorised' Audi repair centre, to fix it. Once they overcome the fear of it. Looking forward to seeing the progress. Cheers.
06:29 That evil and cute smile :-)
I hope you keep going. You've helped me work on my TT.... cheers
"..too too loud..." lol TT-Loud
I put a clutch in my nephews WRX with a jack and four jack stands. I did have access to air so I was able to use my air tools. Got her done in about eleven hours. I think the book time was ten hours. It was a monster. Good luck with the TT clutch. I wish I could help you but I might be distracted.
Your proving Scotty Kilmer was right about Audi cars being endless money pits.
I have a 2006 Audi TT mark 1. Here in the UK and yes to change the front bulb you have to take off the whole front of the car
..crazy. (near side) I've changed the other bulb without having to do that on the offside. Great car although mine's only the 180hp single exhaust.
@0:52 and @13:56-14:14
That's it.
It's great that you keep on keeping on and not give up on your car.
"I need to get laid"😂😂😂😂
You are just a Remarkable Individual Sarah. Tenacity is your middle name. I am amazed at what you can do in your small double garage. Love your videos. If I was able to, I would be there in a heartbeat to lend you a hand. Stay safe and keep the faith.
Get a single mass flywheel. They’re a lot less money
Hey Sarah I'm a new subscriber to your channel and just wanted to say your dedication to Teeter Tot has inspired me to rebuild a blown 1.8T in my 2003 A4 Avant Quattro. I was just going to give up on it but you didn't give up on Teeter so I just ordered a bare engine block today and going to start from scratch. Thank you for the great content and the occasional good laugh, keep up the good work!!! All us Audi owners gotta remember it's a love hate relationship
SOMEBODY IN TUNER WORLD HELP THIS LADY OUT WITH A TRANSMISSION.
and please don't forget the DMF, since that's what's broken...
Girl you can do the work . With all the work you've done so far. You're awesome.
P.S. I’m over here anxiously awaiting the next car review to see how many penguins can be stuffed into the center console. 🐧 😉
It won't be in the next one, that's already been filmed.
Keep the faith Sarah!! Top content as usual and you've got all us faithful viewers rooting for you and the potato on wheels. I'm also a TT owner and feel your pain as my run of luck is very similar. Stay committed and all will become right in the end. Even if it takes a few days to fit the flywheel and clutch it will be worth it in the end.
Much love from the UK 😘😁
When you get a Volks Wagen when you should have stayed in Japan...
I just stumbled on your channel and I can see that the TT is bringing out all the emotions out of you. IMO just keep going, you have lots of support and fans it seems. I'm late in the game of your progress but keep at it, no point in starting a project build and then stopping in the middle of it all. Also, love the penguins they'll make an excellent mascot in your car.
...seriously, 36 seconds after posting and I’m 3rd already.....
Funny how that works......
If you ain’t first .....you last
Much respect for keeping your sh*t together and deciding to keep at it.
These audis are bunk. They are disposable cars I swear. Its meant to make you buy a new one.
Scotty Kilmer - "These cars are endless money pits"
screws through the round pipe will allow the clamp a backing and help prevent slip out under boost. You can use rivets if you like. the hose holds them in and they will not fall through the metal into the intake stream.
