This is an excellent, to the point, checklist. Looking at a 180 in two days time. This will help extensively, myself being a newbie to the TT. Top marks fella. Have subscribed with notifications on. Cheers :)
You have so many great videos... I’m doing my best to view every single one. Earlier I watched one where you clean a few of the hoses out of gunk and one of the valve/baffle things and it fixed the cold start factor. My TT is getting harder to start cold, but perfect when it’s warmed up. If you can think of the video I’m trying to describe please post a link to it. Lols.. you have so many video it’s a real search to find. 😐😂😂😂 Your feed back will be greatly appreciated.🙏🏻😎🤜🏼🤛🏼🍀🍀🍀🇦🇺
Commun issues are hazard switch, light switch, breaky coolant pipes, cluster failure, heated seats, doorlock switch, failing shelf, ignition coils, heatshield washers under the car, and for the right hand drive snaping clutch pedal.
My coil sprinthas just snapped..fu**ing speed bumps...and I go slow over them. I have a 190hp 2006 model in silver. One major thing is engine mount bolts..they are prone to shear off. Check timing belt as well.
Hello mate ,loving the channel ,just bought my first tt 180 quattro, watched most of your vids great stuff ,had it less than a week got an eml light on ,where are you located to have a look and pick your brains on the car knowledge, cheers mate 👍👍
Hi, Wots the common problem with the rev needle moving slightly on tick over? Mine does the same I serviced the tt put bosch super 4 plugs in and has slight drop on idle every now and again 🤔
Hi can I get details to message you please? I have problem with mk1tt the garage has lost my only key.... is there anyway I can get it going and get steering lock off? Thanks in advance
Just in the process of buying a 225. The mirror switch is broken off, can't get the seats to adjust in height and there in condensation in the drivers side headlight. When I pop the gear lever out of 6th it doesnt naturally fall back centre. These easy fixes? Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks
Mirror switch can be replaced, the condense in headlight, a little condense is normal as the headlight is not air tight as the access cover has air vents in it, So check to see if the cover is fitted correctly and that it's seal is ok and is not allowing water in the headlight, use a hair dryer to dry the headlight out and see if the condense comes back ? As for the gear stick no centralising ? re lubricate with silicone spray the 2 springs at the base of the gear stick, and re lubricate the 2 shift cables on top of the gearbox. There is also a spring inside the shift tower on the gear box, in neutral the tower should be able to move up and down freely. Also with checking that nothing in the engie bay is rubbing against the gear / cable mechanism ie loose wires and hoses etc.
Mines under heating goes up to.90 sat when I grt going drops to 50 70. My revs up and down a bit and car seems sluggish. It's a nightmare so want to love the car just so.underwhelemed at the min. Can't do it myself so it's costing a fortune at garage's. And they say its fine even though it threw a code for coolant problem and recirc. So hard to find a garage that doesn't just rip you off.
@@BWSTT I'm in lincs m8 where abouts are you? I just want someone with a clue like you to just have a look and tell me. It just had 1200 quid spent on 2.resr springs which look wrong massive arch gap, 2 front control arms 2 front tyres which are the cheapest shit you can buy and had cambelt done and pump and the coolant .... coolant doesn't even look like its been touched I'm worried they've not even done thr cambelt. Can they change thr water pump without draining coolant? Coolant looks orange not pink n new. Dont know how people can rob people like this. I've got a 20 year old csr it's obvious I'm not in thr money haha. It feels like it wants to pull then doesn't pull hard . Cheers for the reply m8
Hopefully it's better than than baby blue wan you bought because that was rusty as the titanic don't you look under cars sorry but that was a peice of shit
Baby blue one i bought? When was this? And no- typically i just buy them and see whats what when i get it home- but this one was years ago and i dont own it anymore
Looking forward to seeing what you are going to be doing on the TT 👍
You should check the wheel arches behind the plastic covers for dirt. Mine were full of it when I bought it. Looking forward to new videos.

Thank you for your video uploads, they are very informative and helps rookies like me a lot!
Informative: thanks. The lady was probably being over-the-top but you could have parked closer to the kerb TBF;)

I'm excited to see future developments. Are those rear seats staying?
For the short term yes, the kids still fit and love the car
Hey buddy just looking back at your vids. Just wondering did you find you vacuum leak? Cheers
What made the knock noise? My TT does knock noises when I go over bumps and pot holes
Everything works on my 2006 TT..but I can't set the date on dash under the time. I've read manual..but it wont set..any ideas?
I have just subscribed
Very informative video, thanks.
We just gonna ignore the fact that you ordered a egg McMuffin without the egg??
That was for my mate, I don't understand it either

Great video Bryn :)

Is it worth upgrading cams? Someone says turbo engines don’t need huge cams
So on a standard turbo there's not much to be gained, high power hybrid builds and big turbo builds see some benefit
wixh i'd seen this before i brought my TT 2002.... turned in to a massive money pit... great vid though

There's lots of reasons, I will be doing follow up videos on the fix for mine, but every car is different

Audi can order a new keg from the VIN number. You have to prove ownership, but I've had to do it occasionally
@@BWSTT ok thank you for reply
@@BWSTT any idea how much? My plan is to strip it down so dont want to be spending too much.
No McSmeg, yup I don't do that either... 🤮
