So yesterday I picked up my new 2009 TTS after what felt like the longest week in the world waiting (and a few crap nights of sleep as was so so excited).. 2 owners, 56k on the clock and now it's mine can't believe it!!
She is exactly, and more than I hoped.. So so rapid and fast and comfy, am in love!!!
So I thought would start a build thread, which would help me organise my bits!?
The car is mint condition am really lucky.. Windows ok, pebble rash is fine, arches fine, the front bumper and splitter is fine, the spoiler even is ok.. Windows work and don't sag, the Bose amp seems fine.. The Leather seats have a little baggy but here and there but I can live with it..
Things to do:
She's booked into RGS Motorsport in a few weeks time, for a dyno test and black box diagnostic.. See if she's still 272 horses strong... Will also allow me to see what needs to be done, so can be preventative with her care..
Have been looking at private plates too, tho they are costing around the same as a Ramair induction kit, and a stage 1 map!!?
At this stage thinking Defo an induction kit, but will see what RGS say and suggest after she's been on the rolling road..
Totally gutted as after a fantastic afternoon driving around yesterday, bloody scuffed an alloy doh! So that will need fixing too!?!
I will need a new set of Continentals too, in next few months so that's an investment right there, and to be fair more important that induction kits and all that shizzle..
Any thoughts or guidance, my wise TT brothers (as I am new to this, and your collective wisdom is huge!?!!)..
I also need to check the exhaust valve springs, and whether the recalls happened or not.. Also the dreaded cam belt I thinks not been changed either (doh!)..
Here's my new pride and Joy...
