Audi TT Roadster Convertible Top Removal –– HOW TO REMOVE ACTUAL PROCESS
*DISCLAIMER--THIS IS NOT A HOW TO VIDEO or INSTRUCTIONS-- View for informative use only (How to in title is for search purposes only).
Here's how I removed my convertible top off of my 2004 Audi TT Roadster 3.2L Quattro. I purchased a replacement top for $480 off eBay. Quotes for installation were around $1000-1200 for labor only so I did it myself.
Install is basically the reverse of removal-
My total time in the removal was around 5 hours and reinstall was around 4-5 hours. If a person is not mechanically inclined / skilled, I don't recommend trying this DIY.
A complete tool kit was needed for this job as there are many Torx screws, phillips screws, rivets, and a few allen heads.
Note-Rivets are very large and local hardware store did not carry replacement.

    Does the Audi TT and Audi TTS have the same roof removal? Or are they different

    Great video thanks. Appreciate this is an old post but wondering about when you reassembled. How did you put the rear skirt back under the trim at the back? Did you use any sealer or other adhesive?

    This tutorial along with this pictorial helps a lot. There is also a kit on ebay which includes a bunch of useful things for the job. Well worth the $100 public.fotki.com/mcphill/audi_stuff/exterior_non-lighting/soft-top-replacement/118-robbins-top.html#media

    I know this is years old but I think I’m going to attempt to replace mine myself. My TT is non op right now so I can take my time. Seems like just disassembling it, and the putting it all back together. How do you suggest adhering the new top to that back bar though?

    • @HagakureJunkie
      @HagakureJunkie 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a kit on ebay for about $100, has all the glue and rivets and new cables. Makes life a HELL of a lot easier

      Or use contact cement. Backbutter both surfaces. Let air dry. Lastly, join the two surfaces.

    How long did it take you from to remove the fabric roof to get to the point you show in this clip?

    • @HagakureJunkie
      @HagakureJunkie 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Take about 2 hours to remove the top if you label every screw and place them in bags and take plenty of pictures. There are a hundred steps to this.

    how exactly do you remove the roof lever

      I am finding the same problem, did you get an answer on that lever/handle?

    • @srgpip
      @srgpip 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      From my understanding there is a pin that you need to push out, I have also heard that some require an alan key to unscrew the pin first then push out from opposite side. Note I have not done this myself as yet so please don't take this advice as gospel.

    • @HagakureJunkie
      @HagakureJunkie 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Allen key on one end. Stick a tiny allen key on the opposite end, in the little hole and press while you unscrew the allen key pin, it will press out while you unscrew it.
