As we continue the repair of my #salvage #audi #tt we are now at the point where we can really push forward with the restoration of the interior. I have been and bought a nearly complete new interior but it wouldn't be right if we didn't modify it a little bit along the way.

To get rid of the steering light, you have to drive a short distance but also be able to turn lock to lock, it'll go out very quickly! It happened with my fabia and caddy, both quickly and easily sorted

When you lock it, you have to hold it on each side, if you lock it to the left fully you hold it there for a sec and then turn the other way. This is mainly for steering angle sensor and when you start the car from the dead battery. Hope that helps, its used to initialise the angle sensor on vag group cars

So I owned a mk2 tts, loved it for me the little things made a difference. Getting rid of that old phone holder in the centre and replacing it with some black mdf, I also put a stainless steel tts cover on the footrest which looked nice. And a ram air induction kit was amazing great sound from it

The mk2 TT is such good value compared to rivals and even the mk5/6 GTI. As you said, parts for these are so cheap and plentiful now, not to mention the power you can get from just a stage 1 tune. This is such a bargain for what you paid, provided the smoke smell is fully gone 😂

I have always thought that the a pillars and the b pillars I would cover them in the covering without the padding on the back not to add thickness to the plastic covers and that would help with your areas where the seat belt goes through the plastics as you could tuck the material down around the darker black plastic

The steering angle sensor sometimes lights ABS and Antispin when battery disconnected. And you then calibrate the steering angle sensor by steering full lock both ways. Sometimes you also need to drive it for a few meters. Worked on Audi for 6 years and done this hundreds of times. So No they do not live on another planet.
