Followed the steps! Very helpful. I recorded my experience in english. Thank you for posting a @jamiemcwhir for the english translation. Took about 2 hours... sorry this was a few years too late! th-cam.com/video/CMBoMBGxWtI/w-d-xo.html
I have the same audi TT, but my problem is that the hood doesn't go up once it goes down electrically. I have to close it by hand. Should i try the same thing, or its another issue? Thanks for the answer
@@AR-tz3bc well it seems that my problem is differnet than this. Because it opens electrically but not closes(only by hand) , seems to be an electricall thing and not hydraulic. So i am to go this week to a guy that is specialised to Audi tt rooftopos and see what the problem is...
@@Octavia102HP let me know how this end up,us i took my pump out and i have my fluid to max level so in my case it could be electric problem 2, i change both relays and i can here clicking nose so i think im getting power to that pump , but no movement
@@AR-tz3bc 4 months later and still havent solved this...Myspecialist says its the comfort control plaquette but i aint bying it since all other electricals work just fine and half thw hood too ( still opens perfectly but wont close). I was gonna go for relay change , believing that this is the problem but i had another thought for one of Audis forums. Maybe its the Voltage alternator regulator that doesnt work properly and wont alternate voltage correctly when closing the rooftop. I also suspect that this is it , because my left and right indicators tend to mulfunction ( they speed up!!) when i have airconditioning on. IF YOU SOLVED THE PROBLEM FIRST, PLEASE PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!
This is the English translation for Topping up Roof Hydraulic Fluid on Audi TT Mk1 Roadster. Excellent video. - Due to a lack of space, dismantling and assembling the hydraulic motor on an Audi TT is a costly and risky job - I received this tip from a recognized convertible top company, who after an expensive failed attempt by a Bosch garage could explain that it would otherwise be a repair of approx. 4 to 5 man hours - To free up space for the hydraulic reservoir, 2 torx bolts must be unscrewed from this part - These bolts are the best removed by a magnet due to lack of space - The part can now be turned away (motor Impeller) - Melt a round hole with a solder iron - DON'T DRILL because of the risk of drilling swarf in the hydraulic reservoir - Add approx. 120 ml of hydraulic oil with a syringe - Close the hole with a screw plug and screw everything back on - Because I had forgotten to remove the extention reel from the rear shelf, the cover did not go down completely. Fortunately I got lucky and this didn't break anything -At a bosch garage a year earlier the rear window had broken with an unbelievable explanation. The complete hood had to be replaced. So pay attention!
Excuse 4 the late reaction. Its becouse of a second and sleeping account. Thank u 4 the translate, so it can help more people. In the future i try to make a english version for my regular account. And thanks for the excellent compliment Regards Peter
