Back in the 90's, I had a Karmann Ghia 1972. They were simple mechanics. Simple to maintain. And parts are still available...
A cool car indeed
Just on the roadster CCM, mine was water damaged. Wish I could add a photo. The small board at the bottom when mounted in the car is the first to go. It controls the remote keys etc. It is the same as that in the coupe. The rest of the CCM is not. But I could not find a roadster CCM at a reasonable price or known working condition. So I bought a cheap coupe CCM, with no water damage, I unsoldered this board, and soldered it in to my roadster CCM. Job done.
As you said there are often work arounds.
Thats great work! this is the problem with some breakers as there is plenty of people selling used parts but half of them dont even test what they are selling which when your paying 3-400£ for something isnt ideal
Loving the passion Dom, great vid mate
thanks buddy appreciate that 😎
Great vid as usual Dom 👍
Thank you appreciate it
I'm lucky I have R32/VR6TT front and rear sway bars and complete brakes on my 180TT Quattro. Great video. NJ USA here. love the content
Ooo thats good! thanks for the kind words
•• Cracking & Leaking fuel and this part fuel line was longer 8L9133986C / fuel rail supply /return line for Our 225 BAM
•••lastly there is no other option than Purchasing fuel hose 8mm (3 inches diameter) 14mm outer /6 inches than now I’m boiling hot water to bend the hose as close as the OE 😂
I know it will not happen but at least close to the design for assembly)*
The most expensive little hose set if there is left somewhere still however (£150 + )
Cheers
Great video Dom, As you say, while there’s plenty of scrap cars about then will still be able to get second hand stuff, but I remember when there was a Sierra on every street corner, and scrap yards had rows of them, then in a short period of time, they just disappeared and now getting bits is hard. I somewhat think the same thing will happen with TT’s, especially the rarer ones like the 3.2’s. I try and buy a few bit’s when I can just to have some spares. I’ve just changed the brake discs and pads on my 3.2, and have kept the front disc’s as they weren’t actually that bad at all, and could be re-furnished, as there getting rare (and expensive…) LLL parts is also a good site for diagrams and part numbers as well.
The 3.2's are certainly on the rapid decline as the chains stretch / dsg issues they are coming off the road as people just dont wanna invest the money to keep them on the road. That matched with the fact the visual parts fetch strong money it makes sense. LLL parts i will have to give that one a look thanks for the info
The hazard switch is available in Germany for 80€ new. Audi Tradition Shop is also a good adress for original parts
in recent years audi tradition are not fond of sending to the Uk so this is a little bit of a problem for us haha
pinch bolts for standard 150 fwd front struts no longer available, found 3 in the dealer network
Subframes!!!
Great shout there mate, 3.2 more for sure! Damn salt…
Handbrake guide tubes, rear shock absorber top mounting bolts, and turbo gaskets
Thanks Dom for this video - I can add another TT Mk1 item which is discontinued from Audi, which is the Headlight switch to the right of the steering wheel to operate your lights. I need a new one and Audi no longer supply them!!! Ebay and Amazon here I come... 🤪
hahaha thanks for that, i have a couple on my shelf so i shall not let them go appreciate the heads up ;)
The hazard light switch can be replaced with the later model which was in newer Audi/VW cars I think. The new switch has the "three blink indicator" which is a nice feature to have.
The switch itself is different and wont mount into the dash in place of the original one though, you can buy a module that goes in circuit that gives you the three clicks option, done a video about that :)
Very useful vid Dom, especially the car part numbers link! Had a ot of trouble geting drivers door actuators new for my 3.2, there are a lot of different types.....could you do a video on door actuators for all models please it would really help!
You know what its not something ive ever had to look at, will look into it
@@TheParrottBros thank you sir! its insane, the doors all look the same but what's inside isn't! and both sides of the car are different too! you often find sellers claiming the part fits your car, i even had them confirm it after i questioned it, and yet still the actuator didn't fit!
Very interesting 👌🏾👍🏾 I thought sub frames as well…..
Mad when you start looking into it, makes you want to start hoarding
Belle vidéo 👌 😉
thank you mate
@@TheParrottBros 👍 😉
Pcv pipes from hockeypuck to t-piece
Belt tensioners NLA - though I have a brand new one available
For the flasher module mine went and I didn't want to spend $50+ for a new one so I ended up getting $12 worth of relays and spent about an hour removing the old and soldering in the new ones as well as redoing the solder on some of the connections. Well worth it.
great work! most would struggle with complexity involved in doing it
@TheParrottBros could probably do a video of it. It wasn't terrible and soldering is a very good skill to have. Especially with old finecy cars. I redid the solder on the dome lights as well, I know that's a common issue. Was super easy.
The rear valence, honeycomb or even a standard to paint, are NLA. the bumper is available but not this little additionnal part. This could be complicated with insurance in case of a small shock.
Often insurance company’s are keen to write cars off if parts are no longer available and with market cost of these cars right down atm it doesn’t take a lot.
Hi dom good video I found out that audi and like wise places have stopped selling the egt sensor and they stopped selling them back in 2019
Yes this is one of the harder parts to get, to my knowledge there is a company in europe that make replacement boards so these can be repaired but im not 100% on this
@@TheParrottBrosAndrzej @ sidmotorsport still makes them, just doesn't list them on his website.
It's a relatively cheap part (~£40) and easy enough to replace - my EGT was throwing a P1455 code so I bought one from Andrzej, but I only ended up needing to re-solder the main joints of the original PCB in the end 🤙
original 225 front wheel bearings audi do not make them anymore keep up the good work mate
Thank you, yeah this was something i had an issue sourcing a while back ended up getting OE quality but not oem ones
@TheParrottBros yes had to get mine from L&R motor parts oe equivalent keep up the good work mate
You will find the FRONT SUSPENSION STRUT PINCH BOLT & NUT (N10207804/N10106402 )were discontinued last Summer(23)
Thanks for this, mad to think these are no longer available
Vr6 Headlights, vr6 front bumper, all gone.
That must be why the second hand market for them is so strong the last few years, they fetch very strong money now
APX maf seems to only be available from parts direct, it comes from Stuttgart but good news is it takes 24hrs and costs £80!!
Thats not horrendous i have paid over £100 in the past for a genuine bosch one, there are certain things that are made under licence and while Audi / tps no longer make them the original manufacture still does.
@@TheParrottBros it was genuine bosch.. The one I got first from europarts was for bam (although they swore blind it was for apex!) Made my car pop still.. was £150 too! Took it back
good on ya! i never trust online car parts companies, my go to is Coverdale car parts they really know there stuff
Genuine wipers
The arms im guessing, i have considered ordering a set in the past as mine are somewhat of a faded grey haha
Single exit honeycomb rear valance, apparently not available from dealer now
Ooo thats interesting mate
3.2 head exhaust pipe
Good to know. Any exhaust to get a performance sounding one 😎
Just what I have found whilst my 180 TT was at the Audi main dealership for service and MOT…
Brake callipers NLA
Brake pads NLA
Steering rack / boots NLA
Wiper Blades (hook on type) NLA
Oil pickup pipe (the one in the sump) NLA
When I enquired about a quote for a cam belt change, they couldn’t offer one as they couldn’t guarantee that all the parts were available…..
Manufacturers only have to have parts available for 10 years after a model is deleted, but to be fair to Audi Huddersfield they did say that they can source the parts from Audi Tradition, should that prove necessary to achieve the job in their workshop….
N.B. They would only order parts from Audi Tradition if they themselves were doing the work, NOT if I was just to order them for doing the job myself….
;-)
Thanks for that information, I’ve heard Audi tradition don’t like dealing with general public when it comes to ordering parts.
I mean things like pads, wipers you’ll always be able to get all be it not genuine but still just as good. But other things like pick up pipe and rack boots is a bit different.
Secondary air injection Plastic piping.
That corrugated one, yeah and annoyingly super susceptible to breaking... i have one on the shelf for a rain day aha
3.2 DSG transmision mount
Ooo thats not good!
I guess somebody will always have chains to buy for the 3.2's would you say Dom?
you will likely always be able to get some, just may not be audi branded
Didn't mention cup holders Dom. Maybe because you're the one that bought them all and created a global shortage 😂
Hahahaha love this!
Mk1 seat gas height adjustment struts!!!!!!!!!
Need both drivers and passengers side.
Cant say ive ever seen those fail, how odd... seats in the Uk are not mad money and im sure some one may have a scrap set you can have or get cheap and salvage for parts.. I have a pair i need to throw out to be fair
Engine Cam chain tensioner
That’s madness isn’t it
How can you tell which yaw rate sensor you need? Mines faulty on my ‘01 150hp roadster
You’ll have to make a visual inspection to be sure. They are mounted under the steering wheel to the left on a Uk car
What breakers do you use? I’ve been trying to buy some bits but no one seems to reply to their adverts.
Adam is my go to, his Insta is @turbo_adam
Gen 1 Haldex Controllers
Good to know! im sure there is plenty of quattros out there that are Nottros haha
Which blow off valve is best for 225 audi tt ?
If you want to aftermarket a forge one, 007 p, if you have a remap, I would recommend a yellow spring
I couldn’t find any Original Floor mats , discontinued
Still a lot on sale in Germany Ebay
I know what you mean, last time i looked i couldn't find any for RHD cars that were genuine, im always asking breakers when i see them for a good set aha
@@TheParrottBros I’ve had success on eBay finding close replacements with the plastic eyelets. Keep up the good work
thanks buddy, ill keep my eyes out as could always do with a new set
@@skiptastic1000
@@TheParrottBros true. You need a RHD set. LHD are still available. I have my 25 year old set 5 year old and a brand New set. No problem for me on this topic
Are the Alarm sirens still available or a suitable replacement part ?
Thats a good question, Im sure they are NLA as working used ones sell for strong money
I bought brand new siren from Audi dealer in France 2 years ago €240
Anybody know where i can get wiprt blade motor connecting rods and long wiper blade arm getting des now
most breakers will have all the parts your after, where are you based ?
@@TheParrottBros near portsmouth
Hi Dom I have a my original QS anti roll bars seeing as I fitted eibach uprated set years ago.
I'm guessing the rear R32 one is just over 20 mm ?
Stock 225 is 14mm, the r32 rear is 19mm
As of last September can’t get replacement door lock cylinders. Remote keys still available but my local Audi thinks they may go sometime this year 🫤
Ooo thats annoying, keys are a nightmare at the best of times, i've had a couple tt's that only came with the one key and found one once that the key didn't even work in the lock, most stressful haha
3.2 water pump bracket.
Are they known for failing ?
@@TheParrottBros Apparently so. I recently found out the hard way. The bracket is aluminum and the bolts that mount to it are steel. Bolts break off with removal of the water pump in the bracket. I bought the only bracket listed for sale online from Germany. I hit the lottery though and also found one local to me so the car is good to go now. When I get the other bracket comes in I will just keep it just in case.
@@todddunbar176 that’s crazy! But doesn’t surprise me. If you ever need any 3.2 parts Jason case is decent, usually has everything on the shelf
@@TheParrottBrosThank you for that information! I’m in Colorado in the USA so things may be challenging.
Let me know if you want another tt
Drop me an email or message privately mate
Amu/bam hard coolant supply pipe. Send me one from the UK? I'll pay for one in good shape and not bent! Thanks!!😊 Also, intermediate plate for the 225.
Ive yet to come across a nice one, in the UK they rust and to my knowledge they are NLA, i think you can get aftermarket ones
@@TheParrottBros not in the USA. I bought two other 1.8t pipes as they are similar. I was able to repair mine and I have the others. As spares, but if forced to use the spare two hard pipe sections are missing. I believe I'll be able to run soft pipe to replace as one outlet on the 225 pipe is not used.
Door locks
Door locks and micro switches is a good one, I regularly get asked how people can break into their car without breaking anything because they’ve locked their keys in where they unlock the car and the micro which did not notice and they’ve left the keys inside 😂
I kinda panic about having a TT purely because of the parts struggle
I get what you mean but at present and for atleast the next few years id say we are safe and the community is still very good. If you need something, someone will have it
Enough crossover with vehicles like the gti. Hard to replace parts will need to be fabricated . Like the brake vacuum line.
Completely unjustified mate, I was like this when I finally had mine delivered.. (we moved and the cars been parked in my work that long the shocks have collapsed on the rear and the ball joints have also failed.. these new are supposed to be hard, marketplace is an absolute godsend 😂 so far all in all this car owes me £40 and it’ll walk it’s next mot
Driveshaft boots Obsolete
Good to know
