Audi TT FAQ

[mouseOfMars]

I'm a definite noob to Audi's and I found this faq VERY helpful!

Thanks so much for the FAQ write up!

[TTguy30]

and now i have some more issues, my horn just stopped working, i hear the clicking noise and ive replaced the fuse and still it doesnt work, also you know how when you turn the headlight switch all the way to the right to turn on the headlights and pull it out to turn on the fog lights, well whether i pull it in or keep it out my fogs won't go out, im hoping someone else has had the same problem so they can help, i just wanna be able to see just my HID's already lol

[TTguy30]

well i found out the problem with my issues running lean is because my connectors for my coil packs got messed up when a local shop just ripped them off so now i need all new connectors and pins, any ideas on where to get them?

[l88m22vette]

The FAQ is officially full and edited. I cannot come closer to 20000 characters than I am now From now on, please post replies

TTguy30, you'll need to take some of the side passenger dash apart...also, you've probably got coilpack issues, not sparkplug issues Here is an AudiWorld post on how to get it open: http://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1661146.phtml Modified by l88m22vette at 5:31 PM 11-18-2007

I know "TTguy30" and the car. First off, he does NOT have an ALMS edition. He has an aviator gray with gray interior. Second he had an issue with the spark plugs and having them installed at his buddy's honda shop, to which he was told the spark plugs did not need to be gapped out of the package, as they were already gapped.. which is not true. Third, he owes me money. that is all.

[vaultpsu]

And speaking of ALMS's... we forgot Avus Gray in the color codes available!

[l88m22vette]

Do you know the color code?

There is no avus grey. It is avus silver that came with the ALMS. There is Aviator Grey though. LZ7W is the code. I am sure it is in there though.

[vaultpsu]

Doh! meant avus silver!

Perhaps we could mention colors? Amulet Red: LY3C Avus Silver Metallic:LY7J Brilliant Black: LY9B Brilliant White: LY9F Denim Blue Pearl: LZ5W Desert Green Pearl: LZ6W Aviator Gray Pearl: LZ7W Nimbus Gray Pearl: LZ7X Raven Black Pearl: LZ9V Lake Silver Metallic: LY7W Misano Red Pri Metallic: LZ3M Venetian Violet Pearl Effect: LZ3W Moro Blue Pearl Clearcoat: LZ5J Nero Blue Pearl Clearcoat: LZ5S Imola Yellow Clearcoat: LY1C Papaya Orange Metallic Clearcoat: LY2B Ocean Blue Metallic Clearcoat: LZ5C Goodwood Green Pearl Clearcoat: LZ6X Dolomite Gray Pearl Clearcoat: LZ7J Glacier Blue Metallic Clearcoat: LZ7K Dakar Beige Metallic Clearcoat: LY1Q Quartz Gray Metallic Clearcoat: LY7G

As far as I could find, these are the only Paint colors available on a MK1 TT in the US. I got these from the database at a Paintshop.

Thanks

Very helpful FAQ, I am in the process of picking up a TT now. Can someone points me to the direction where I can find the service manual for the Audi TT? I want to know what is involved for a 60k miles service. I have searched and can't find the service manual.

Thanks tonnes.

[JettaRed]

Troubleshooting

The Door Latch Problem.

Symptoms: The window doesn't drop 1/4" when you open the door; inside lights don't come on; and the headlight on chimes don't work.

Fix: Replace the door lock/latch (not the lock cylinder).

There are a couple of things you can do.

FREE: Ask the dealer to print out the latest maintenance schedule for the car.

$24.95 (per year): Subscribe to ALLDATAdiy. It's a pretty good site with a lot of pages right out of the Bentley manual. It has the most current maintenance schedule plus instructions on a lot of repairs you can DIY.

$90: Get a Bentley Manual.

The 225 production was not stopped in 2004 as the text says in the first post. The 225 was made in the US albeit in limited numbers all the way up until the mk 1 was retired in 2006.

[l88m22vette]

I've never seen an 05 or 06 225...can you post evidence? A classified, VIN numbers, something?

Cool, I found some sites that said it too

[julito04]

hey guys. yes, im a noob. Im thinking about trading in my 06 GTI and getting a 225 TT(2005) and was wondering how much HP i could possibly see(to the wheels) with, chip, intake, exhaust, intercooler(s) and little things of that nature. I know with a GTI(2.0T with k03) I can get 240whp and about 280-290wtq with TBE, Chip and Intake. Would I be seeing around the same gains since there is a K04 in the TT or am I going to be a little dissapointed with the upgrades mentioned?

[julito04]

The gains will be better in theory, but there will be greater energy loss through the AWD system. Safe to say with those mods you will reach 220+ hp to your wheels.

Maybe it's me but the FAQ says the 3.2 was only avaliable with DSG - but we all know that's not true, right? I mean, the 3.2 also came with a 6-speed manual gearbox.

[l88m22vette]

Only on the VW R32; you can swap it though if you have the money

[silvervr6dub]

I just used genuineaudiparts.com for some oem stuff, awesome company to work with and prices are far better than most.

[MCPaudiTT]

"SUSPENSION" section is missing a reference to DEFCONs, which quicken steering response greatly, and reduce understeer. Also missing reference to KW coilovers, which many consider to be the best option available for the TT. Available as v1 (non-adjustable), v2 (compression adjustable) or v3 (compression and rebound adjustable).

[hamburgl3r]

What can I look for to specify an Audi TT 180HP from a Audi TT 225HP!? Is there a certain number/letter in the VIN i can look for?

They might have in Europe.

And to determine 225 or not just pop the hood.
