VW/Audi Dog Bone Mount Insert Install! - MK2 TT(S)

Chasing our list of issues on the TT, lead me to wanting to try an upgrade and fix combo - leading to the install of a Dog Bone mount insert! This should help with power delivery and also get rid of one of the noises the car is currently making.

Do you have a TCU Tune? I just went stage 1 ECU tune w/ stage 2 TCU tine by 034 Motorsports. WOW what a difference in shifting. Shifts perfectly now with little lag/ hesitation.
How do you like the Dog bone insert so far? Any issues and what have you noticed vs stock? Will you be changing the mount?

Hey man i have a 2012 tts getting the same rattle noise as you after installing the cts catless downpipe. Was wondering how the dogbone insert has held up and if that would fix my issue. Checked clearences and everything looks good and tight on the downpipe. Sorta lost, thanks.

[@ThatGuyTyy]

Pretty sure it’s the bolts that go into the hanger because they don’t use a proper exhaust hanger, I think it just vibrates within itself

[@ThatGuyTyy]

So gonna weld em to the downpipe instead of just tightening them down and see if it works

[@moto631]

@ThatGuyTyy The 2 studs by the cts logo that go into the rubber gromet? I'll give it a check thanks for the feedback. Love the videos by the way

[@ThatGuyTyy]

@moto631 yeah those ones, if you have a welder, tack em on there and report back 🫡🫶🏻

Can you show, how to do DSG relearn?

[@ThatGuyTyy]

Can definitely do a quick UA-cam short about it sometime!

[@StockWasa]

@@ThatGuyTyy cool! i'm waiting 😁

[@tristanlem9949]

I think your videos are great and informative, but was was wondering why you don’t seem to like manual transmissions and prefer dsg instead? No hate, just curious

[@ThatGuyTyy]

Manuals are tons of fun, I’ve had many in the past, however I prefer a DSG mainly because a lot of the performance Audi/ VW’s we received in North America either didn’t come manual at all (which a lot
Of people are shocked by) or in very limited numbers.
I also daily all my cars so not having to mess with a manual at 530am is nice in stop and go traffic - you bet that once I have Porsche/ R8 money tho, we’ll be having a manual 😂🫣

[@tristanlem9949]

that’s fair, thanks for responding. I’m looking forward to seeing those videos with the r8. Thanks for making great content

[@ThatGuyTyy]

@tristanlem9949 R8 hopefully sooner than later 🥺🫶🏻

[@tahaaelcheikh347]

Did have any luck fixing the water leaks?

[@ThatGuyTyy]

One was definitely the windshield, still hunting the second, I think it’s the main hatch seal, which needs striker adjustment and stopper, will make a video about it if I solve it

[@tahaaelcheikh347]

Glad you're making progress :) I'm currently in the middle of buying a TT - Sline myself, but your views have made me rethink my deposit and look for a TTS, can you give me your thoughts on EA113 VS EA888.2? Thanks man :D @@ThatGuyTyy

@ThatGuyTyy Hi, I had the same problems as you and fixed my leak in the back by looking under the spoiler, you have 2 drains and there can get blocked and water gets in under the spoiler and the long brake light,
You got to take your spoiler off and the lone brake light out and reseal them and clean the drains, your water will be coming through the light or the spoiler seals,
I'm sure there is a UA-cam vid on it if you want me to find it and send it I will. Keep up the good work and I hope it helps.
Some people don't like links in the comments so the vid is called, AUDI TT WATER LEAK FIX! and the name of the youtuber is called David Dobbie, he fixed the leaks in the back at 14:00 in the vid

[@ThatGuyTyy]

Yeah I’ve had lots of people say it’s the spoiler drains but I recently discovered there is a butt ton of water under the rear seats now too… so that would make me think it’s gotta be something that can run all the way to the seats or down the b pillar above the back seat?

[@seSJackal]

@@ThatGuyTyy if its under the seats its got to be coming from the screen, mine was the same, carpets out to dry and sealed the screen.
there is drains in the front under the scuttle panel, I never did mine but maybe it can get in there to I'm not sure.
If you do find it coming from somewhere else, please let us know as in the market looking for another tt now,

[@prosche407]

[@ThatGuyTyy]
