A few people asked for a vid on just the sound of the exhaust, well here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKjQiJVnprpqoas Enjoy!

Super vid thanks mate! How stiff is the suspension for a daily driver. I currently drive a C Class.

[@JWL-UK]

Really cool video, I've recently bought a 2008 TFSI 211hp daytona grey pearl with cream interior and I'm loving it! Wanted a TT since I was 18 (I'm 38 now) and for now trying to keep it stock. May swap the wheels at some point but running 17" means car is noticeably more comfortable to drive on a daily basis.

[@damos_cars]

Love it. Nice one.

[@anthonylee5003]

I've tried finding one like yours online, they are marked up to almost 8k some of them. I'll keep looking. Yours is lovely

[@damos_cars]

Yeh, 8k does seem to hold firm. Keep looking for a well cared for private example. Should be able to find one. Remember DSG is cheaper tax than the manual as the CO2 ratings between the two were right on the threshold. Join the Facebook groups as you get a few enthusiasts selling cars on there. Cheers and good luck. Loads more vids on this TT here: kzbin.info/aero/PLOCda-wyPDq3jm81lBFK0gS29T7LkYwmC

[@stevelutwyche]

Love the sound of that exhaust! I had a 3.2 DSG MK1 from new in 2004, loved the engine, hated the hesitation from the gearbox, wish I had gone for a manual. That’s a lot of car for the money!

[@damos_cars]

Yeh the DSG does take a bit of getting used to. Not as easy and smooth as many reviews would have you believe. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. 👍🏻

[@readerj01]

Yep I had a Mk1 3.2 DSG. Very smooth changes on the move but the delay on launch was a real pain initially. Apparently it is possible to get this mapped out to some degree but I left mine as is and tended to drive round the problem. I did the flapper valve mod initially (to the exhaust) which made the car sound a bit fruitier but ended up fitting a Blueflame Sports exhaust which sounded much better. I would have preferred an Edel01 exhaust but they are only available in Germany and I couldn't justify the cost to go get one. Great cars for hooning through a tunnel in.

[@davidstuart4915]

@@readerj01 indeed...Edel is best sounding but too expensive :(

[@peter6782]

there isnt any lag on the dsg, it has a learning gearbox you must have been driving like miss daisy if it wasn't changing quick enough for you friend , you could have put it sports and changed manually but the gear box would still change quicker in auto than you could have.

[@readerj01]

@@peter6782 I agree that once on the move the dsg (up or down the box) has the quickest - and probably the smoothest - gear changes I've ever experienced (and I've had loads of autos over the years) but the delay (or hesitation) off the line is very well documented on mk1 dsg tt's. In fact the problem wasn't entirely sorted until well into the mk2 era. All very well reported and commented on in American and UK forums. Mapping can sort it though. As I said it never really bothered me as I wasn't one for ragging it all the time and once you know of the issue its easy to make allowance for it. Needless to say Audi never admitted to their being a problem but no surprise there.

[@kicsipupi]

WOw...so U really have a V6 :) nice looking car...especially the interior and the exhaust..love that sound:)

[@damos_cars]

thank you. Yeh it sounds incredible.

[@muddykessy576]

Does it have a nice sound even without aftermarket exhaust

[@davidhiscoke2436]

Really nice car - love it all and the wheels are stunning. I made the mistake of buying a c-class but the trouble I have had with it (2011) is unbelievable. All the BMWs I have had have been diamond - first Merc ever in over 20+ years nothing but issues. Had an A5 before but always wanted a Mk2 TT and this fits the bill. My next whip 100%

[@damos_cars]

As the owner of a 2016 Merc (which is ok actually) I can share you sentiment. Think next time I'll move more toward an Audi/BMW again. The TT is a great motor. Recently sold this one after I'd had my fun with it but what a machine!

[@jgtemperton]

[@richardrainbow9442]

Absolutely love your enthusiasm and your love for Audi. I have three current Audi but have owned many going back to the 200 Turbo. Presently have an S4, S8 and a TT 3.2. If you had a thousand to spend on an upgrade where would you spend it?

[@damos_cars]

Yeh, bizarrely I don't have one currently (The TT went recently) but I do fancy another. In terms of upgrades, this car was pretty well sorted. I think they only thing I'd do would maybe just try to enhance the looks a bit and maybe put some slightly lower springs on. It did always seem to look high to me.

[@jurgenkruijt]

Cannot wait to get mine! I am going for the manual gearbox though, while it is (in my opinion) even more fun! I think it will be quite stable in it's market value as well. How is the maintenance?

[@damos_cars]

The DSG is fun but yes yes yes a manual in this will probably be amazing. Enjoy it, let us know how you get on. Took mine out yesterday and never fails to put a smile on my face. Great cars. Enjoy.

Great video dude. I wanted to ask what kind of expenses do you expect for maintenance for this car? It seems like a lot of fun but I want to be sure it doesn’t break the bank.

[@damos_cars]

I'm not using it that much at the moment really so negligible really. Take a look at my what I've done to my TT vid for a bit more info on some of the work I've done. Not driven it much since any of that so currently its not costing me much at all over and above normal servicing. Once the tyres, brakes and sump were sorted it seems fairly robust.

[@danbofive]

Great video man im curious though how tall are you? Im concerned about the people i will be putting in the back seats, you looked cramped in there :D

5'10". Don't think I would want to ride in the back for long or at all! Cheers, thanks for watching and for the comment.

Mk2 TT’s are a lot if car for the money. I am thinking of getting a 3.2 as a runabout to keep the RS in the garage this winter 👍🏼 3.2 sound and auto would make a nice daily.

[@3.2vr6]

I have just got 34.4 mpg on the M27 during its roadworks. Generally I’m in the low 20’s mostly though to busy enjoying the noise.

[@tz6414]

Totally get these, always liked them, the interiors on the TT were such a quality place to be. That one sounds epic. Rear seats are so useful as you can put shopping in, or recline to have a rest. I find 2 seaters too claustrophobic even though no one ever sits in them. Had a boxster courtesy car and hated it. Terrible visibility , cramped no space just couldn't relax in it. Would I pay another 35k for a 992 over a cayman? Unbelievably yes just for the extra interior space. How does the performance compare the the 996.? I would guess they are similar. Mine wakes up at 4k then a lunge at 5.5k. Its a tip and I drive it in manual 90% of the time. Both 0-60 a fraction under 6 secs.

[@damos_cars]

Nice, not tried a 992 yet but hear they're awesome. Did own a 996 for a while (see my other vids for the story on that!). I do love Porsches in general and can see me getting another in the not too distant future. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers.

Colin Groves yeh, get the Quattro and you’ll be fine. Driving position will feel a bit higher and arguably not quite as stylish as the SLK. If getting a 3.2 go for the DSG as the car tax in the UK is in a cheaper band than the manual.

I want one, but in the US they are still 10-15k cars for one similar spec to yours. The A3 3.2 Quattro Sportback that we got here is half the price. Probably my next car. I currently have a MKV GTI and 2.0T B7 A4 Sedan. I love both, but the VR6 is hard to not want.

[@jasonleedunn666]

Do you mind if I ask what year model this is as I am looking at gettinh a mk2 Audi tt myself.Thanks🤙🏿

[@damos_cars]

Hi, this one was registered in Jan'07. The 3.2 is usually a bit cheaper than the slightly newer TTS that I think sort of succeeded it. Maybe they had a load of mk1 3.2 engines to us up!? The compromise is a lack of tunability and heavy lump up front compared to the lighter 2.0 TFSI in the TTS. However, what you do get is this lovely V6 engine noise! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKjQiJVnprpqoas Cheers and thanks for watching.

Interesting, i was thinking of getting a TYS but would consider a 3.2!

[@damos_cars]

They both have their advantages and disadvantages. TTS more tunable, more economical, lighter. 3.2 is heavier, bit thirstier (mpg is better with a tune) but sounds a bit meatier (especially with custom exhaust!), also they're good value at the moment. 3.2 DSG is lower tax band in the UK, 3.2 Manual isn't. Worth bearing in mind if running costs are a high consideration.

What is the timing chain situation on this car please?

[@damos_cars]

With the 3.2 VR6 engine, there isn't a specific mileage-based timing chain replacement interval. Instead, Audi recommends visual inspections during routine maintenance and replacement if any wear, noise, or performance issues are detected. Regular oil changes and prompt attention to timing chain-related symptoms are essential for longevity.

is $18k (US) to much? in current times. (model year - 2008 v6 3.2) - 66k miles.

[@damos_cars]

Seems expensive to me when compared to the UK

[@EnhancedNightmare]

I actually consider switching to this with Vr6 from my Scirocco. Just can't seem to find a fine unit.

[@damos_cars]

Mk1 or mk2 Scirocco? I fancy putting the engine from this in my 944!

[@Wizbit-x]

I have the same car, im only 5ft 11 and sitting with the seat position so im not squashed right up to the steering wheel theres no way on earth anyone is sitting behind me theres about 2” of space between the seats so no idea how you’re managing to have almost afoot of space there, its not possible which you can see when you’re in the front seat clearly pushed the seat back. Thats one think I have to disagree with you on about this car

[@damos_cars]

Agreed. I’m 5’10” and only a small person is going behind me and my seat is going to be really far forward. Not something to have as an option all the time which is why also have an A4 Avant. Still there are times when it comes in handy.

[@Wizbit-x]

Pedal Loud I have the manual version of the v6 so I cant give any opinion on some of your points but I love my TT, amazing car for the money

[@damos_cars]

@@Wizbit-x It totally is, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I did another video recently on the exhaust and there's another video dropping early Oct on the things I've done to mine since owning it so stayed tuned. Cheers.

Nice car but i'd rather have the 6 speed manual gear box in the roadster convertible.

Ooo yeh nice. You pay a bit more in car tax in the UK with those but a great choice. You can hear the engine with the roof down!

@@damos_cars I was looking for an Audi TT on auto trader but wasn't sure about their common faults. I came across your review and it just looks beautiful. Your title says for £5k so I thought If I find something like that for £5k happy days. Thanks for reviewing. If you know of any common problems please let me know. Thanks.

[@damos_cars]

@@sabahshakur So yes, here's the thing... My car was £5k ish (it was a tiny bit more). It looks great but actually it's not without its faults. I'm composing another video outlining the work done in the short time I've owned it to get it to a standard where I'd be happy to drive it on my commute. If you can find a 3.2 they are a seriously good buy, just budget for a bit of contigency for any bits of work that need doing. Oddly the DSG is in the cheaper UK car tax bracket than the manual is... Go figure but worth bearing in mind when deciding between manual or dsg.

[@sabahshakur]

@@damos_cars I will definitely look into the 3.2 litre. looking forward to the next video. I'm looking for an automatic unfortunately my wife can't drive a manual. Also is there a facelift for these cars from 2005, 2006 or 2008 onwards? I want to get the face lift version which hasn't been changed till about 2015 if you know what I mean. Thank you.
