Helped me realize a couple things that were wrong before buying it and also helped me understand hm work n money I’m looking at for everything. Keep it up y’all deserve mad props
Nice video mate! The honeycomb diffusors were part of the S-Line exterior package, which could be ordered optionally when the TT 3.2 was introduced. The 3.2 models and later also the Quattro Sport had all those parts fitted by default. Alternatively, they could be ordered seperately from Audi either in satinblack (S-Line, 3.2) or painted in phantomblack (QS). Cheers!
Great Video! Got a 180 a few months ago, but the car was so immaculate (everything works on it), Nagarro Blue like his, I chipped the the tuning and lowered the springs, Bilsteins all around and 4 new P4's. I'm loving this car. The small thing after painting the calipers red, was 4 Audi tire valve (Audi rings) covers in blue to match the paint. looks choice.
Nice colour choice! Where in the world are you from? The Nogaro blue is quite a rare option so did well to get one. Sounds like you did all the right mods to really enhance the overall performance
Enfig makes an adapter for Bose stereos. While it is rather expensive ~$100USD, it is plug and play, gets rid of the "pop" sound upon start up, and they make can bus to radio adapters for near any headunit you would ever put in your TT.
Great suggestions. A popular stealth option on the forums for the airbox is what they call the "WakBox" - involves drilling some holes in the bottom of the OEM airbox to increase flow. Other ideas: as with the front grilles, perhaps a regurb of the wheel arch liners? Also, some nice stainless steel dress-up kits for the engine bay to replace all the broken fixings.
Robert Rawlins thank you, I had something similar to this when I started, it’s a great option if you like that stock look. I think I need to do a video on engine dress up and options for swapouts of nice bits and bobs. Appreciate the comment 👍🏻

Hi love your channel gteat tips and I've got a 1.8t bug could you show me how to ad a boost gauge as most people are routing through the fuel pressure valve and I know that's not right thanks for any advise you can give
Gordon Jewell hey Gorgon, I’ve done a video on fitting one into the vent. Then in the description is 2 links to bws tt channel as he has done 2 very good videos showing fitting. You can use any of the small vac lines as a feed if you use a t piece and the pipe is the same size all round. My video is called: How To Remove Air Vent On Audi TT Mk1 & Dismantle To Fit Boost Gauge Or Paint
Lots of good ideas but I got on Amazon for my 2004 Audi TT was a Bluetooth adapter that uses the cd changer and your factory wiring took me five minutes plug and play Crux BTS-VW1 Bluetooth Music Streaming
That’s a great shout, I wanted to focus on the mechanicals. Was going to look into interior modifications later down the line. Will keep that info for the future
Alot of the TT have a apple connector in the glove box. You can get a bluetooth receiver that plugs direct to the apple connector and it sends your music direct to the stereo not over radio waves so no crappy interference.
That’s good to know, unfortunately mine didn’t come with one. The radio adapter I have you can change the channel so makes it easier to find one with very little or no interference
Very helpful videos 👍🏽 I have a 225 in nogaro blue as well, and I get quite a bit of interior plastic trim rattle from around the boot area. It could also be the rear seats but I need to investigate properly. Wondering if you had any tips to resolve this please?
Thank you, aww no way that’s cool!! Yeah sure best thing I would do is check spare wheel and tools are tight. Once ruled that out give everything a pull and see if anything is loose as often when people remove trim they break the clips thus giving mite chance of rattle. Also check the rear parcel shelf as very common tabs break. Failing all of the above remove them one by one
Great video I have most of the mods you mentioned another good one is the illuminated h gate gear stick surround and lockwood white dials,look forward to you're next upload 👍
Thanks for the comment mate, I probably won’t do much to the gearshift as in the future I would like to fit A shift tower 😎. Thanks for watching and commenting
@@stuartwinstanley4949 perfect fit? I was filing mine down for hours and 1st and 2nd still scrapped badly on it and were under a lot of pressure when in gear.
Sick video mate, I bought a mk1 TT last year and it’s good to see someone documenting everything there doing, and the how to vids are great. Will be doing some of these soon
Mines black, 1.8T, 180 Quattro. Good little runner to be fair, very fun to drive. 100% going to do the cup holder and going to look into doing other stuff to
The Parrott Bro’s I don’t know if you’ve come across it, but on my TT the head lights have got a bit of condensation inside the lens, I’ve tried taking the bulb caps off so the water can evaporate but it’s been in there so long it’s clouded the inside of the lens. Is there anything you would recommend?
Martyn Hayes you can take the heat lights out and split them and re seal, but that’s Quite a big job, can take bulb out and use a hair dryer to clear. Then drill a small hole in bottom of the lights to allow moisture to escape I’ve heard that works too. It’s not an issue I’ve had to deal with for a long time to be fair.
Hey mate, thank you for these videos, they're really helpful! I'm trying to pick an all-weather first car for visiting home and having fun and a TT is high on the list. Hopefully will test drive one I found on autotrader this weekend. Q: Will mods such as the new air filter, exhaust swaps and getting the engine tuned have a large impact on insurance? My current quote with no mods is just under 600 quid
Louis Heath usually anything performance enhancing have a cost impact on any policy. But quite a few company’s don’t charge too much more for them so it’s worth asking. People like Adrian flux, admiral etc
@@TheParrottBros ah, thought so .. luckily admiral is my lowest quote atm but I'll check out Adrian flux, thanks ! Also, how do you find motorway driving in the TT? That's currently the main thing making me consider something more boring like a mk6 golf..
@@louisheath2791 You would have to take one for a test drive to see if its suitable for you, I love it but everyone is different, they are old cars now and will need some upkeep where as say a mk6 may not soo much and also has more creature comforts.
@@TheParrottBros true, I'm not too fussed about driving in complete plush and I kind of want to tinker a bit too. Going to see one in Hatfield tomorrow .. it's just over £3k but looks in good nick. Fingers crossed !
Hey, I’ve never had any personal experience with it but it takes away from what the system is, I’ve heard it’s good for track use if that’s your plan with it
Hello sir - new to the channel here. Im looking to buy a TT but im from denmark so the prices are astronomical compared to UK. Would you say a 225 is worth 40% the price over the 180? btw fun fact: the cheapest TT 180 in denmark is around 6000 pounds
Wow that’s mad! I guess it’s priced on supply and demand. Less of them means cost more. In England they are everywhere. It all depends what you want it for. The 180 is great, very nippy as smaller turbo so less lag, if your not looking to change loads and spend thousands in tuning the 180 is fine. Will still go fast enough to get you a speeding ticket. If your a speed nut then get the 225 as much more tuning potential. Thanks for watching
I have a question to ask: The back panel in the booth makes a crazy squeaky sound...that drives me crazy. I tried to fix it with strong glue but didn't make any difference... Do you have a suggestion? There must be other people with the same problem. Tell me I'm not alone 😀 FYI: I already purchased a new one but couldn't solve the problem. Thank you Mike
There is loads of things to check. Do all the basic checks first, MOT service history had a timing belt recently, check for oil leaks check that it boosts well when you accelerate and no funny noises. Make sure 4wd system works if Quattro, rocker gaskets leak. Cheap and easy fix, loads of possible boost leaks. Clutch is expensive if 4wd so check that yoo
An fyi.... the American tt has 2 small aluminum cup holders between the seats. Maybe that's something you could source from the state for a factory feature. Living your videos, trying to buy my family's 04 1.8 vert. Original Los Angeles Ca car. Just sets in the garage its whole life, still under 50k miles on it. It's mint.
You can purchase a cup holder in the UK but they change hands for in excess of 90-100£. That’s why I made a budget option for those who can’t afford / don’t want an expensive one. ( I believe they were a optional extra) Yeahs that sounds like a gem of a car, I would love to have a Cali car with low miles 😍
@@TheParrottBros oh wow. No, I sophistication pay that much. Update on trying to buy the TT. I made the deal yesterday. $4k Very excited about it. First thing on the list is timing belt/ water pump.
DeCampers the part is like £30. And if your having a service they will have already dropped your oil out. The only thing they can charge you for is dropping the sump off and swapping the pipe over / cleaning the existing one up a little 👍🏻
Hi. i recntly bought an Audi TT 2008. The hood release lever was broken, so i decide buy another one and this is break again. Will there be an aluminum release lever?
@@TheParrottBros Yep, found it, thanks. Would it be better to buy the 180hp version or try fitting the 225hp version for max performance? Don't know if the ECU will adapt to a bigger size maf sensor though. Anyway, thanks for your reply. :)
My TT has the proper cup holder in it and also the official arm rest which I've not seen on other cars. I've seen them for sale on eBay for £200+! To fit the arm rest half of the cup holder has to be cut off though
Nick mmm an armrest would be lovely. Yeah have seen a few, but have never justified spending the money to get one. I’ve seen genuine cup holders sell for over £100 so if you don’t have one the cheaper options are certainly more appealing
Why does every video about fitting a boost gauge in an air vent start with '.. so here's the vent with all the insides removed...' How? I've been trying to work it out without damaging the housing, almost stuck a screw driver in my hand several times!! Any tips?? 😫
@@TheParrottBros ... Cheers, figured it out just after I posted this. Spent several hours taking dashboard out, plumbing in the hose and wiring, fixing the gauge into the air duct only to find the on starting up the gauge reads nothing .. checked all wiring, checked there vacuum on the hose but gauge doesn't do anything... Now I remember why nowadays I usually pay people to sort my car stuff out!... This is my second gauge to, the first one arrived on 0.5 bar... Sent back and bought a slightly more expensive one
@@TheParrottBros thanks for replying mate. All the ebay items do not fit the TT MK1. There are genuine original ones that do but cannot find in red and black. I even thought about sticking one on the existing but again the MK1 badges seem to be bigger. Mine is 75mmx10mm. Most are 68mm.
@@MrGrinch52 ooo ok then yeah it’s not a genuine part for a MK1 tt so wouldn’t be able to help sorry buddy. Stock only come in black / silver. Anything else is likely to require modification
Ok, so just received my boost gauge and out of the box the needle is well above zero.. I'm guessing it should be exactly on zero when not fitted. Can anyone help me on this? Cheers!
How far of zero are we talking, my one since a couple of psi off but when running is accurate, usually they come from zero have you contacted the seller?
@@TheParrottBros it was sat on 0.5 bar. I 'jogged' it and the needle eventually went to zero, but having googled it, seems like it should arrive on zero really. Not sure I want to fit it just to have to take it out to send it back if it's still f#cky!
Nick temp fit it, just add it into the vac system in the bay then turn the car on. Should pull about -20psi. Or just using a long bit of vac hose plumb it in and run pipe out of bonnet and through window and go for a drive see what it reads
Buying stuff off eBay glad to hear it people are like fuck ebay the stuffs shit they obviously don't realise that most companies sell on ebay not just the usual chancers

Dankzer If you have a look on his website he actually does one specifically for the 180 bhp buddy, they have a different sized maf sensor.
@@TheParrottBros Yep, found it, thanks. Would it be better to buy the 180hp version or try fitting the 225hp version for max performance? Don't know if the ECU will adapt to a bigger size maf sensor though. Anyway, thanks for your reply. :)
Dankzer I would stock to the correct size, a bigger maf has to be coded / tuned in from memory.
My TT has the proper cup holder in it and also the official arm rest which I've not seen on other cars. I've seen them for sale on eBay for £200+! To fit the arm rest half of the cup holder has to be cut off though
Nick mmm an armrest would be lovely. Yeah have seen a few, but have never justified spending the money to get one. I’ve seen genuine cup holders sell for over £100 so if you don’t have one the cheaper options are certainly more appealing
@@TheParrottBros ... I've been tempted to sell it and put the money towards a stage 1 remap 😂
Just buy bottled drinks. Haha problem sorted. Hello remap 😂
Nick , remaps would be anotter interesting matter for a video!
Why does every video about fitting a boost gauge in an air vent start with '.. so here's the vent with all the insides removed...'
How? I've been trying to work it out without damaging the housing, almost stuck a screw driver in my hand several times!! Any tips?? 😫
If you have Instagram or Facebook message our account and I will send you some pictures 👍🏻
@@TheParrottBros ... Cheers, figured it out just after I posted this. Spent several hours taking dashboard out, plumbing in the hose and wiring, fixing the gauge into the air duct only to find the on starting up the gauge reads nothing .. checked all wiring, checked there vacuum on the hose but gauge doesn't do anything... Now I remember why nowadays I usually pay people to sort my car stuff out!... This is my second gauge to, the first one arrived on 0.5 bar... Sent back and bought a slightly more expensive one
What a nightmare! Hope you get it sorted buddy. Yeah I get like that sometimes. Cars are sent to test us. Especially tt’s 😂
Help guys, im looking for a red and black front grill Quattro badge for my mark 1 but cant find any! Any help or where i could get one ?
Do you mean the word quattro to attach to the lower grill if so then ebay is probably your best bet as its not a genuine item
@@TheParrottBros thanks for replying mate. All the ebay items do not fit the TT MK1. There are genuine original ones that do but cannot find in red and black. I even thought about sticking one on the existing but again the MK1 badges seem to be bigger. Mine is 75mmx10mm. Most are 68mm.
@@MrGrinch52 ooo ok then yeah it’s not a genuine part for a MK1 tt so wouldn’t be able to help sorry buddy. Stock only come in black / silver. Anything else is likely to require modification
@@TheParrottBros ok mate. No worries. Ive seen the black and silver but wondered if they did a red and silver as a compromise but cant find one 😥
cant understand all the people with a fetish for "cup holder's", you're supposed to be driving the car,
PAUL HAMMERSLEY one may get parched whilst on a strenuous drive in ones automobile 😂 it’s first world problems really but it’s nice to have
Ok, so just received my boost gauge and out of the box the needle is well above zero.. I'm guessing it should be exactly on zero when not fitted. Can anyone help me on this? Cheers!
How far of zero are we talking, my one since a couple of psi off but when running is accurate, usually they come from zero have you contacted the seller?
@@TheParrottBros it was sat on 0.5 bar. I 'jogged' it and the needle eventually went to zero, but having googled it, seems like it should arrive on zero really. Not sure I want to fit it just to have to take it out to send it back if it's still f#cky!
Nick temp fit it, just add it into the vac system in the bay then turn the car on. Should pull about -20psi. Or just using a long bit of vac hose plumb it in and run pipe out of bonnet and through window and go for a drive see what it reads
@@TheParrottBros 👍
Buying stuff off eBay glad to hear it people are like fuck ebay the stuffs shit they obviously don't realise that most companies sell on ebay not just the usual chancers
Nowadays ebay is one of the largest market places and like you say some of the biggest names use it including demon tweaks for an example
