TTo do lists

[Murderface]

Post up your "to do list" for your TT in the near future (next few weeks). This could be mods you're about to do, general maintenance, whatever. Mine:

-CLEAN the damn thing for the first time in 3 months of disuse and probably a month of use prior to that.
-Install the new evap solenoid I have sitting in my trunk
-Transplant my Forge 007 onto the new motor
-Figure out why my cruise control isn't working
-Order/install coilovers/new suspension bushings/bearings
-Order new lugs for new wheels so I can run spacers
-Order 6-speed shift knob
-Figure out why A/C isn't working (pressure switch, probably)

That's all for now methinks.

[HowdyTT]

-Clean
-Replace "Blinker relay" (don't know correct name)
-Replace front right strut
-Change Oil in the next 500 miles
-New key blade ($$!)

I wish I only had performance items on my list :(

[Cincy]

Reinstall w2a setup
finish pulling out sai
do rear brakes
new coilovers
save funds for an actual turbo

Im dissapointed murderface I figured a KO4 upgrade would be on your list :)

Heres my list:
2.0 stroker ( to fix my messed up crank )
Send my headlights to murderface for modding ( while car is ripped apart for stroker)
once those are complete I get to go back to troubleshooting my tune and hopefully get in a dyno run and a track day ;)

[Cincy]

You might aswell send him your valve cover, calipers and anything else you ever wanted powder coated. That Dalhback would look good matching the valvecover

[Adam@unitronic.ca]

You might aswell send him your valve cover, calipers and anything else you ever wanted powder coated.

I can powdercoat too if anyone is interested.

My list:
Needs rad support, headlights, AC condensor, hood, front bumper.
Then the engine/trans/rear subframe/diff will come out.
Car will be caged and repainted in OEM black.
Porsche Big Reds on the front, new rotors all around.
Wideband ECU and o2 harness will be swapped in.
THEN the 2.0 and 35R will go in with custom FMIC piping, the SEM manifold and 80mm throttle, and a PTE 600 core.
(4) 225/45/17 drag radials until I decide on bigger wheels.



Should take about six months or so. Summer will be fun. :) And then it'll be fast and need coilovers, rear arms, and a Haldex controller. :( Never ending.

[exTTreme]

Yeah my list seems to be never ending as well once the engine/tune is worked out I will once again work on some engine bay clean up already had some plans on a nice black powder coated dahlback :)

[JB_WELD_YO]

[Murderface]

Im dissapointed murderface I figured a KO4 upgrade would be on your list

Hey :D not in the immediate future unfortunately :( got a lot of stuff that needs to be done before I implement that (intercooler, exhaust, etc). How's your car coming? I'm still working on the lights I owe you :p

That Dalhback would look good matching the valvecover

I just did an ABD the other week. I didn't mask the injector seats since he was gonna remove and replace them (hence why they've got some black on them)

new headlights or at least the covers mine are all hazed up and ugly lookin
new front bumper from my little incident with a curb and ice
some stern 17" by 8.5 st8's in hyper silver
a pretty fmic
and maybe just maybe a 3" dp

[CoreyHarTT]

I'll spare you all the actual "To Do" spreadsheet I have made, but in the next few weeks the list of things i need to do to my 02 TT 180Q looks like this...

- Repair dome light (damn thing never comes on anymore)
- Tint rear taillights black (the car is black and I'm in the process of "murdering" it out)
- Install boost gauge on steering column and fix coolant temp gauge on cluster (f*(k my gauge cluster)
- Install Bilstein coilovers (sitting in basement)
- Install 19mm Nuespeed rear sway bar with CPT adjustable rear control arms (also in basement)
- Remove headlight inserts, discard reflectors and paint them flat black (Muderface style)
- Install smoked corner lenses and fender markers
- Rewire turn signals/running lights to stock fog location (again, Murderface style)
- Reassemble headlights and replace HID bulbs with 5000K or 6000K bulbs (OEM bulbs are fading on me)

From there I'll finish working out the electrical gremlins and put the finishing touches on the exterior. Once I complete that, the engine build will begin (right now I'm planning on late Feb / early March). I'll be pulling the engine to install IE rods, new bearings, head bolts and piston rings as well as a full timing belt/water pump overhaul. Once I get the motor back together it will be time to decide how I want to go about putting down ~400 awhp on the stock head :D

[l88m22vette]

Within two weeks:
- install timing belt kit, green temp sensor, grease rear bushings
- change tranny fluid to MT90, change rear diff and steering w/OEM fluid
- install ECS dogbone poly kit
- change fuel filter
- figure out an Ancient Greece history unit!

By the end of summer:
- get a short shifter (Dieselgeek?) and fill my bushings with Lexel
- figure out my extra gauge placements once and for all :mad:
- get tuned and install a new EBC/MBC

[Irish*TT*]

gotta get a new DV (hopefully a forge one from ttstuff)the thing is fluttering bad. Thought about cleaning it
Replace the rightside parking light($10 from stealership).

Couple weeks going to do a muffler delete.

Tint the headlight lenz's yellow!!

Lots to do

BTW just got my windows tinted. Prety happy about that!

[Skitzafit]

Friday fedex my ECU back to Arnold at Pagparts to have the immoblizer defeat file fixed. I heard the set up for maybe 1 minute running the stock ECU. Sounds sick even with all the popping and smoke hahaha. BBK in the mail. Water/Meth kit sitting on the floor. Thanks again for all the help Murder and Cincy. Vids and soundbites coming soon.

[taifighter]

which to do first?

once I have the 3in DP, decide on having 3in catback built or purchased... dunno just yet

do more research to find best value adjustable coilover set for about an inch or so drop

[Irish*TT*]

* I would just have the 3in catback built. Are you planning on doin stainless? I think an exhaust stop would still be cheaper.

Imo. Spending the $$$ on coil overs for just one inch isn't worth it. They are nice to have. But. Lowering/sport springs do the same thing. And are easy to change out if needed. (It takes a lil time. But easy to change them)

[taifighter]

That was one concern is that the kits we all know of are stainless and the builder I found would just use mild steel or aluminized steel. One cool thing is the built system would be about half price, I can pick my own tips, and I can be around while it's built to add or remove pieces to tune the sound. I live in Michigan where we get snow and have salt, my TT is my DD, so it has to stand up to the corrosive-ness of our roads around here

[taifighter]

also, just replacing the springs would wear out my shocks and just need replacing anyway, resulting in more $

anyone with input on this?

[taifighter]

I think V Maxx may be my pick

[Irish*TT*]

I think V Maxx may be my pick

*im sure you know this. But you will need a camber kit as well.

[Cincy]

Stainless is great and all, but all in all, an aluminzed system will more than likely last longer than you will own the car (that is unless you drive daily for another 10yr).

Stock shocks dont last long when lowered, meaning you will have to go in again if you just do springs. Stratmosphere had vmaxx's down to $450 just before christmas, you maybe able to find some still on ebay for $500. And awd models will need a kmac kit

[taifighter]

looks like they have the FWD stuff on the cheap, but not the AWD... hopefully it comes around again

[Tmoney]

For me its very simple, im also broke and in college (sophmore). But i want to give the ladies a show....... an AUDI TT SHOW!!!! woo woo

42DD downpipe
Blueflame exhaust, or maybe jsut go muffler-less
A nice Red Forge TIP
Maybe a new sticker lol
DV relocation in Red

Thats it...................so who buyin it for me? lol

[Skitzafit]

ECU is sitting in customs in Alaska. BBK arrived today. Water Meth kit still sitting on the Floor. Next to order some Defi BF linls and get the set up dyno'd once the ECU arrives I want to see what S10,000 in engine and performance upgrades really nets me.

[AudiTurbo]

Looks good!

[Audiguy84]

Oh heres what I got to do
Pull the engine and tear it apart to install
Scat rods
AEB head
ARP head bolts
APR STG 3+ with a 3071R
SEM intake mani
Clutchnet STG 3
16.5 lbs Billet steel flywheel
install coilovers

interior wise
put in my CF door handles shifter stalk and C-frames.

Need to order
Full body kit (undecided)
spoiler
CPT control arms, how can I order these there website doesn't have a order link.
CF engine trim parts ~ minus the main cover.
and that's it for now.

[exTTreme]

getting an s4 soon hopefully i can leave it stock and continue to focus on the TT

[Cincy]

good luck with that!

[l88m22vette]

getting an s4 soon hopefully i can leave it stock and continue to focus on the TT

If you're a car guy there is no such thing as "stock," there is only "not bought yet" and "moneypit"

[exTTreme]

I'm approaching the S4 smartly it is going to be my girls car that way any mods have to be cleared through her and I doubt she will say sure go ahead and pull the car apart for a few months to do a stage 3 turbo swap but then again she might say whatever makes you happy like she normally does so its kinda a toss up.

[Cincy]

get a V8 B6 and you have nothing to worry about mod wise and far less maintence

[VWdriver03]

get a V8 B6 and you have nothing to worry about mod wise and far less maintence

I agree that would be a very wise idea.

[exTTreme]

price is still to high on those for my taste maintenance isnt really an issue for me since I have been building engines since I was about 14 (first vehicle 1956 chevy truck built by me and my stepdad) also im a helicopter mechanic so I can fix pretty much anything as long as I can find some form of instructions or pictures also a B5 with a few cosmetic touches is a sexy bich

[Cincy]

Good point, prices are still up there. Plus its hard to turn down a good B5 S4 just on potential alone

[225ttroadster]

I Have quite the list...

Haldex flud/filter
rear sway
brakes all the way around
Put my rear stainless lines on
clean
figure out n75/mbc setup...
zip tie and finish some stuff from clutch install
synapse BOV
custom FMIC NON-Headlight washer delete !

also in the works of making a custom turbo timer harness as well...

[Skitzafit]

Since the turbo is done it is time to order a LSD and possibly an external wastegate. Also need to get ready for the summer race season that will be here soon.

[Irish*TT*]

Gotta change the damn oil again... Might just take it to the stealership so I don't have to deal with it.
Plus I don't trust my friends ramps he got from wal-mart..

[brian_216]

My to do list,

finish cleaning and scrubbing with the engine out

buy my gaskets, rings, bolts and random stuff
pay my buddy for a set of scat rods
match port the AEB head to the intake and exhaust manifolds
sell my 2871r to fund the new 3076r
pick out a clutch
get my wife to had over the cash from our tax return to do all of this...

and last paint my block hot pink just to be an a$$ with a 400+hp engine thats painted pink.

[Murderface]

-CLEAN the damn thing for the first time in 3 months of disuse and probably a month of use prior to that.
-Install the new evap solenoid I have sitting in my trunk
-Transplant my Forge 007 onto the new motor Done!
-Figure out why my cruise control isn't working It works in all gears except 6th. At least I know that.
-Order/install coilovers/new suspension bushings/bearings Got em! Vmaxx going in come spring...
-Order new lugs for new wheels so I can run spacers Got em...stance will be perfect :cool:
-Order 6-speed shift knob
-Figure out why A/C isn't working (pressure switch, probably) Nope, mechanic forgot to install/hook up a temp sensor for the AC.

I knocked out the ones in bold...now I have a few new ones:

-Receive/install new Euro switch
-Replace door sensor
-Replace hatch struts
-Re wire angel eyes
-Replace wipers
-Get someone to turn off airbag light

[Irish*TT*]

What's a euro switch?? Light switch?

[Tmoney]

Hey muderface, where are you order ur 6speed shifter from. Ive been lookin all over ebay and the internet and all i get is crap. Closest i get is the 5 speed. I tried genuine audi parts but that just is so expensive for tiny shift knob

I need to replace my driver side door handle, looks like a dog chewed on it haha

[Murderface]

I run a Forge polished billet knob...looks like it came with the car but looks better than OEM in my opinion. You can get one for ~$60 on TTstuff.com.

http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m96/lmaoxfilip/IMG_1259.jpg

[A4speed]

since the A4 section isn't thriving yet ill post my A4 to do list here as well, lol :D

need to do:

FMIC before it gets warm for my hammer file
1st o2 sensor is fried, will be replacing this week

following:

saving for lightweight flywheel to install with my SB stage 3 clutch.

[myslow1]

i can add DP to my list of things to put on, instead of things to buy and then put on. Yay! :D

[typ44q]

finish replacing my clutch slave cylinder, clutch, pressure plate, convert to single mass flywheel, rear main seal and tranny output seals!
after that it need to be washed and waxed.

[Warranty]

Can the air bag light be turned off with the liquid TT?

[Irish*TT*]

Can the air bag light be turned off with the liquid TT?

Hmm I don't think so. You can try. You will pry have better luck with a vagcom. I believe the air bag system is all by itself

[Warranty]

I'm waiting for my rear spacers. Should be here this week. 15mm all around. Oh and once my buddy the welding/fabrication god is available, I'm going to have a custom 3"TB built. He's in jail for DUI. 2 bad, the guy is a genius when it comes to steel.

[exTTreme]

well i knocked some things off my list to buy:
dieselgeek ss, ross tech cable. now to replace the pauter rod i fried and put the engine back together

[l88m22vette]

I have cincy's (stjacket's) adjustable MAP and Murder's shifter links sitting at my Dad's house, and I'm waiting on a KKL cable. Within a month or two I want to have my SAI gone (if stjacket's ME7 voodoo works), and I also plan on getting an MBC to up the boost once I figure out the adj. MAP :)

[Murderface]

Argh:

-Fix door sensor (have the replacement sitting somewhere)
-Install new hatch struts when they arrive (hopefully today, first set I got was bad)
-Reinstall dogbone bushings (getting tired of wheelhop)
-Replace MAF...got a code for it
-Clean the interior
-Fix little exhaust leak (I think because of where I put the clamp)
-Replace dome light (really intermittent)

[l88m22vette]

Engine is a work-in-progress but boost is still off the N75 :-( I plan on my AGN soon and then getting the seat delete done

[Cincy]

Build my 3" catback
replace my injector seats
finish removing sai and add in block off plate
install a catch can so i can replace leaky pcv hoses under manifold
and pray the stock market goes back up, today just killed me :sad:

[KrissrocK]

my plans for the weekend of the 1st -

install bilstien shocks
install phenolic spacer
install Catch can
clean pcv piping
change oil
clean entire intake track
install LED turn signal resistors
remove counter weight

[Irish*TT*]

well'p! put the DP on saturday morning.. and then got my O2 spacers THAT. afternoon:cursing: so i need to do that!
THEN.. i need to finish the exhaust cuz right now.. im running 3" dp catless, then it goes to 2.5'' plus the resonator and no muffler. so it sounds like ass right now!! BUT! i found 3''x5' stainless steel pipe on the net for like $40. and i found some magnaflow res and muffler for cheep. so i NEED to get that done with in the next month!

THEN i need to change my spark plugs.. i swear i ordered a set off line. but the payment didnt go threw? or something ?

[l88m22vette]

Wow, read my old messages, I'm about a million miles away from this spring. I've bought a FMIC and an INA kevlar belt/mech. tensioner kit, I'm going to soon buy a Maestro, a SEM + 80mm TB, an AEB, and a 2.0 kit from Issam. My plan is to get the long block done over winter break to break it in properly (most likely until summer), and from that point I save for a BT and clutch; I will somehow fit suspension in there as well...

[Warranty]

1-Oil change BAD
2-rs4 front bumper
3-caratere grill
4-votex sides
5-tint(going very lite)
6-have my headlights resurfaced
7-change haldex and tranni fluid
8-figure out how to gain some lost power

[225tt]

Starting in December

1. Pull and rebuild engine (2.0L BT 450awhp)
2. Freshen up suspension
3. Paint!!

[JB_WELD_YO]

1.get it running
2.sell it

yeppp pretty much lol

[Murderface]

1.get it running
2.sell it

yeppp pretty much lol

What's wrong mr.weld? :(


Knocked some stuff off:


-Fix door sensor (have the replacement sitting somewhere) - found it, fixed i, made a writeup :)
-Install new hatch struts when they arrive (hopefully today, first set I got was bad) - Both sets ECS sent me didn't hold up the hatch. Bent over and bought OEM ones for $40 more. Work great.
-Reinstall dogbone bushings (getting tired of wheelhop) No more wheelhop with 245s...they hook up for the most part.
-Replace MAF...got a code for it
-Clean the interior
-Fix little exhaust leak (I think because of where I put the clamp)
-Replace dome light (really intermittent)

Now I need to:

-Replace a strut bearing
-Replace spark plugs
-Reseat ABS sensor (car ABS's randomly when coming to a stop, though it doesnt throw a code...I don't think I pushed it in far enough)
-Replace dome light
-Get angel eyes working again (hoping it's a wiring issue and that I didn't melt yet ANOTHER inverter)

[Cincy]

I somehow pulled the abs wires out of the connector when installing my coilovers, you may have done the same. I still need to find a way to fix it or find another connector i can splice in

[JB_WELD_YO]

mannn i dont even know

i keep getting the code timing over advance,and it runs like shit
when the timings spot on
changed the cam tensinoer
put it a new pickup tube
replaced the fuel pump relay (according to ross tech it has something to do with it)
replaced cam position sensor
traced the wires to the tensinoer

i just dont know anymore....i jsut dont have money to put into this thing to keep it running,and right now im so clueless its not even funny

[Cincy]

sounds like your car is off a tooth on the TB. If you can, do/get a compression test. Also check for slack on the belt

[Murderface]

I somehow pulled the abs wires out of the connector when installing my coilovers, you may have done the same. I still need to find a way to fix it or find another connector i can splice in

The car was throwing intermittent codes on 3/4 wheels. I found that the passenger's side wire was almost rubbed through (stupid bigass wheels :tongue_smilie:) so I soldered it up. Still got a code...looked at the driver's side sensor and somehow it was split in half. Replaced the sensor but couldn't get it in the whole way...code went away but now the car engages ABS needlessly when coming to a near stop.

[myslow1]

i need to much to list :( I will not be buying any performance parts for a while because i have alot of little maintenance things that need some tlc.

[Irish*TT*]

^me too... just finish the stupid exhaust ... then i dont have ttoooo much maintenance crap to do, its just the breaking down and buy'n stuff u need and not toys !!

[Warranty]

^yeah no shit, I REALLY need an oil change! And I'm too broke to buy oil lol.

[JB_WELD_YO]

sounds like your car is off a tooth on the TB. If you can, do/get a compression test. Also check for slack on the belt

yeah thats my plan for tomorrow...been sick all week so.. finally gettin better...
i swear you read my mind lol..everything you say ..either ive done it.or am about to lol
well wish me luck lol

[Cincy]

I hope you get it fixed. Nagging issues really drive me crazy also. Glad mine was just a ground

[Irish*TT*]

its time to get the oil change ! and i was going to get a bulk set of filters and plugs. and the ones on TTstuff, say ''3 new larger size oil filter as recommend by Audi/VW and 3 oil drain plugs. Quality OEM Parts. Bosch, Mahle, or Mann. ''

these are right.... right? the "larger size oil filter '' is kinda throwing me off

[225ttroadster]

Tires/alignment
Lights (fogs and lic.)
new axle bolts (all.... 12) and red thread lock
fix minor leaks (fluid and boost)
clean/wash
Haldex Service
clean drop-in
fuel filter

There is more I am sure.

these are right.... right? the "larger size oil filter '' is kinda throwing me off the larger filters are for the longitude a4/passat since they have smaller oil capacity. If you have a crossover pipe still in place, its a tight fit. They are all oem fiters. Im doing mine this friday and advance has 5qts Castrol Syntec and purolator filter for $25. They oil alone is $35

[Irish*TT*]

oh nice !! do the filters come with plugs?

I realized when I went to change the oil on the Lumina (beater) that the filter I bought (looked it up in the book at the parts store) was bigger than the one that was on the car already. Researched it and it's pretty commonly used by GM 3800 guys to allow 5qt oil capacity - and man it was really nice just dumping a whole 5 quarts into the engine without thinking about the oil capacity. I say a bigger filter is a worthwhile upgrade, saves you the hassle of filling and checking the dipstick and having leftover oil sitting around.


New To Do List:
-Remove all non-broken stuff from car and sell it :cool:

[Irish*TT*]

So with these larger oil filters I can just bump 5 quarts in?!

[Cincy]

oh nice !! do the filters come with plugs?

drain or spark? either way, no. I really dont see a need to change the plug unless the edges are worn.


New To Do List:
-Remove all non-broken stuff from car and sell it :cool:

hit me up when you cut that harness for me

So with these larger oil filters I can just bump 5 quarts in?!

i think its just below 5qrt. I like having extra since my car needs oil every 1-2k miles

[l88m22vette]

So I'm officially in the running to get a stroker together, my to-do list is:

Parts I have: SEM+80mm TB, ADR bigport head w/OEM NA cams, INA mech. tensioner kit, a few random things
Need to buy: 1.8T shortblock (for $100!), 2.0 FSI stroker kit (Issam is giving me a deal, otherwise I'd get the cheaper AEG), motormounts, MJM hybrid pan, a FMIC that will fit the FPP pipes, fluids
The BIG to-do: get my 2.0 02x on the road by spring :cool:

[Murderface]

hit me up when you cut that harness for me

Will do, finally starting on the fun stuff this weekend...pulling engine and trans, then suspension/brakes are next...

[Irish*TT*]

:( wish i had $$ for your trans and ecu.... im sick of tiptron.

[225ttroadster]

I will trade you lol... could use the relaxation of my left leg. and I have a mostly highway commute.

[Irish*TT*]

PISSED! so last week (wed) i ordered spark plugs from TTstuff. so today i was thinking id get em in the mail and put them in tonight after work....NOPE. get home see i have an email from TTstuff sayin" oh your package was just sent off today..... thanks ass holes..... brought some tools home from work and everything

[Cincy]

people still order stuff from TTstuff :confused:

[Irish*TT*]

haha! i really dont trust going to the advanced auto parts in this town!!

[Cincy]

i usually end up buying a pack or 2 from ecs every time i make an order (which is way to often imho). Sucks having to pay tax, but i get next day shipping since im in OH

[Irish*TT*]

i do need to gap them tho. i got the .28 thought it would be easier to got from .28 to .34 then, .44 to .34 ! or maybe just not gap em....!

[KrissrocK]

people still order stuff from TTstuff :confused:

faster and better shipping than ECS.

[KrissrocK]

so what the differences between the ADR and the AEB ?

[frostyflax17]

never heard of an adr head. doesn't sound as cool as an aeb.


so far i have taken out all my lights to have them redone with some led's and make them look new and shiny. I have the intercooler taken apart to de-oil it. Gotta get the abt spoiler painted and put on the car...

save up for suspension for sure... and brakes. powdercoat the wheels... and that should be it for the car till i have the money for the 2L+ bt (years) haha

[Cincy]

faster and better shipping than ECS.

Never had an issue with ecs. UPS is next day from their northern OH location to my SW OH location. So if its all in stock, i get it in less than 24hrs

so what the differences between the ADR and the AEB ?

Euro transverse big port vs US longitude big port. No difference in casting.

[ConmanTT420]

So My TT is under the knife at Imola motorsports. I'm finally taking care of some issues and getting it ready for some fun summer driving.

My Haldex was toast. It went last year and I finally have the cash to fix it. So I got a used one with around 50k miles on it. The rear diff fluid and Haldex fluid/filer are getting changed. My bad one will be going up for sale (If somone has the ability to fix it)...

My Cam chain tensioner gasket was leaking. So that is getting replaced along with the head gasket and all the other gaskets in the head.

Tie rod end and inner CV boot are getting replaced.

I Ordered a set of Sumitomo HTR Z III's. They are a Max performace summer tire that is supposed to be better than the PS2's at half the cost. Only $107 per tire.
