TT arriving - What Upgrades? Source: TT-Forum: Mk2;
Firstly hello, and thanks already to this forum and it's members for the advice I have already found here: insurance £350 from Swift, and knowing that with Medcalf & Co just 2 minutes down the road I am OK for approved alluminium body repairs. My first TT arrives in a few days, previously had an S3, and more recently a Lotus Elise, so curious as to how the TT will stack up. Actual car is a 2.0 ...
Liquid TT and poorish performance?? :( Source: TT-Forum: Mk1;
Well, as always, when you get a new toy like the liquidtt, you usually get bad new along with the excitement of something new to play with.. I was always suspicious of a poorish performance by my car, which i think now is also reflected through the liquid tt.. Isnt 255bhp (a 204g/sec Maf reading if i recall) a poor result for a remaped '03 225, with revo stg 2 map, milltek cat-back, bmc cda air ...

Tracking Alignment Has Shagged My ESP? Source: TT-Arena;
Hi,
just thought I would post before I go and bend over for a main dealer
I had my wheels aligned a few weeks back at elite in essex but now everytime I turn hard right I get the front left wheel firing ESP and breaking. According to the before and after tacking reports my tacking _was_ like a banana and should have scuttled sideways most of the time Elite had the car back and re tracked it and checked tire pressures but found nothing to wirte home about. All seemed better however now I am starting to see the same issue while driving in a straight line.
I found something on a VW forum about a girl that fitted a TT Steering rack to her 4Motion and casued herself all manner of pain. However I have not changed any parts.
Now to add some history:
A while back I had my dashpod replaced due to an intermittent ESP light and a rev counter that would flicker randomly. since the replacement the issue has returned and I took it back to Audi. They have suggested that there may be a short in the loom. I also saw a DSG software fault last week which seems to have been fixed with a reflash...
Would buying a VAGCOM tool and spending some time playing with it save me some cash?
TT as a European GT- Greek meet- Lots of pics Source: TT-Arena;
I don?t usually advertise my holidays but this year some of you knew what I was going to attempt and this is a way of sharing what happened and hopefully give you ideas. I also promised the Greek TTiers to display their pics here.
So let the miles roll:
Calais- Lugano: 10:00am arrive in Calais, by 8:00pm we were in Lugano , 633 miles away. Yes I know that was fast. We arrived in a motel that had a garage below our room, so you lock the car in the private garage, you don?t have to take your things out of the car and walk up the stairs in your room.
Lugano- Ancona: Woke up next morning and did the last 330 miles to Ancona and get on the ferry to Patras, Greece.
My dear Italian friends, most of you are sensible drivers but there is a big minority that drive like lunatics and that brands you as the worst drivers in Europe. And yes I know the Greeks are bad as well and will try to overtake in unsafe places but it?s not as dangerous as you (Italians) tailgating with a small Punto at 100mph and bulling people out of their way when there is nowhere to go. I am not car snob and I will let you pass me but don?t you think I can do more than 100mph, if I find empty space on your crowded motorways? Ah and by the way the motorway from Bologna to Ancona, see Chris Rea?s song. (This is the road to hell). Lorries competing in a 2 lane motorway to get first on the ferry.
21 hours on the ferry (ZZZZZZZ) we arrived in Partas and had another 60 miles to Galaxidi, a lovely village close to Delphi where my parents have a house. 2 weeks of rest, drink and eat it was time for a TT meet.
Galaxidi- Athens and back: 250 miles. Greek TT meet. The Greek TTiers and S3 Club had invited me to attend their meet in Athens and it was a great experience to attend a TT meet in another country. The Greek TTiers have their meet next to the airport in Athens and close to a 3 lane motorway and a Shell petrol station. You can imagine what followed. They don?t sit around a table and eat like we do but when they get hungry they just go for dinner, usually after midnight. But they were more than happy to sit for hours in the parking lot and chat about engines and some even got their screwdrivers out to test a DV. All of their cars had at least one mod and one S3 was even moded to 470BHP. As you can see from the pics we had a bit of wine as well in 32C at midnight. They gave me a bottle of red wine and I would like to share it with you ( UK TTiers) on the next meet I will attend. They asked about what we did with Audi and the problematic dashpod because Audi Greece still charges them for replacing it. I advised them to see the result the TTOC and the TT fora achieved and take action. They have to get organised to get results.
Back to Patras on the ferry and back to Ancona:
Ancona- Monaco: 433 miles. Easily done in an afternoon. I think Monaco pics speak for themselves. If you have to do something before you depart from this planet, is to go watch the F1 GP in Monaco. I have a friend there and I have been fortunate enough to have seen it twice.
Monaco- Lausanne: 330 miles. We arrived in the Alps in pouring rain. Tom Tom took us from the main Alps and to the right of Lake Leman rather than the main Mont Blanc tunnel. It was frightening but spectacular. We climbed up to 2000 twisty metres and you could hear the turbo straggling to get air and the engine note starting to change. But the Quattro was spectacular on the wet twisty bits. Lake Leman is spectacular and Freddy was right after all to spend his last years in Montreux.
Lausanne- Calais. 476 miles. We started at 10:30am from the hotel in Lausanne and we were at 5:30pm in Calais. The French police was just observing us but fortunately did nothing. Cross to UK where we ended up on a jam on the M25. Welcome back???.
Damages: A few dings as one of the children in Greece tried to hit his sister with a stone and hit the TT puting a nice ding on the wing. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.........
So is the TT a good GT car? Yes and No. The V6 might actually be better for such a trip as the high temps in France and Greece (27-38C) do not allow you to push the car for long as the temps on the 49C reading climb really fast in such ambient temps. The main concern in such long trips is to preserve the engine and the 1.8 turbo sometimes is not enough to keep high speeds for long. Secondly as some of you know I had Koni FSDs installed and Brembos. The greatest idea I ever had on this trip. Suspension was absolutely perfect. Comfy but sturdy and not too low. After 50 hours of driving my back is still with me. Cruise control is a must. I m sure you can all imagine the space problem we had in the TT............
So after 2,900 miles in 3 weeks I m back on the island and have to get the TT washed a few times as it looks like it?s been driven through the whole of Europe????
GREEK TT MEET: and a few mods i havent seen in UK

Waiting to get on the ferry in Patras: At this point the security guy comes to me and says: "I will put your car last on the ferry so that I can admire it as long as possible." Fortunately he was joking and found a nice space for me.

MONACO: I would love to show you TT pics in Monaco but I drove something a bit more interesting there. But i was not really blown away as the 360 has no torque below 4K revs, ride is hard and clutch is extremely heavy. What a sound though.......

Hi guys - have noticed recently that strangely I don't seem to be getting any air blowing out of the two centre dash vents - but the others all work OK !? I was thinking that maybe I've disloged a hose or something whilst playing about with the radio earlier in the year, and just not noticed it since - either that or it's brolen of its own accord. Anyone have any ideas before I start to take ...
