I've done lots of jobs that don't involve getting inside the engine, such as replacing brake rotors/pads, alternators, starters, shocks, accessory/alternator belts, etc.
Reviews of spare parts for Audi TT
The facts are in ... same caliper as the Bimmer 750 il but the brackets are different Below, that twin piston R32/TT/750 il caliper on the BMW 750 il bracket. The BMW and VAG cars DO NOT share the same bracket. 34111163319 Bimmer front, left Right is 1J0615126 & 5B TT 3.2-R32 front with twin 44mm pistons for 334x32 rotors (1ZT set up) Left is brackets for DE Calipers with the single 54mm piston 288x25 mm (1LC set up). More caliper = more rotor = more weight mdt said: This is the difference between the [SUB](late)[/SUB] R32 334mm brakes and the 288mm [SUB](early R32)[/SUB] brakes: This is the [SUB]early DE[/SUB] 288mm set up (# 1K0615124J/23J) VR6 caliper next to the [SUB](late)[/SUB] R32 version: Click to expand... Thumbing through all this saw that you can get a SET of red powder coated Mk IV calipers and carriers for $91.29 INCLUDING the core charge. You'll still need your Mk II or Mk III brake brackets since Mk IV brackets only work on the Mk IV chassis. It's a damn good buy. Can't tell if they have the 38 or the 41mm piston though. Regardless, Audi TT 3.2Q rear brakes ready to bolt on, with the clips and warranty. Sell the p/c brackets to the Mk IV guys and recoup your costs. http://www.rockauto.com/dbphp/x,car...php/x,carcode,1431901,parttype,1704,d,2004_AUDI_TT_QUATTRO_3.2L_V6_Caliper.html Except for the Mk IV rear (aluminum) brakes both of the above options (including girling 60) are heavier than the stock Girling 54's. Those 944 turbo rear brakes getting run as fronts on the Corrado keep coming up because they're alloy, 4 piston and weigh 7.1lb.
My Michelin Alpins were outstanding in the snow
Purchased a Red Top 35 today and it fits! I did have to take the bottom bracket and flip it so that the side of the battery facing the headlight [+ -] stayed secure.
I don't have the valve lift K04 but my APR K04 works great. Power and reliablility. I have it on my base 2010 TT Quattro and it is so much more fun now.
Got it. So am I correct in thinking that these Bosch alternators have both diodes to get to DC and voltage regulators to make it a clean voltage?
After tearing apart the motor and doing a swap, I also changed the fluid and filter on the car. The factory metal filter was still intact, which leads me to believe that this maintenance was never done by the previous 2 owners.
I have installed Porsche calipers 996.352.425/6 calipers on the front of my MK1 TT with stock sized 12.3" discs with Hawk HPS pads and SS lines.
New brakes. All OEM replacements, however the Bosch pads are a bit squeaky
In my TT, I had been using orange colored Rain-X washer fluid in my car for nearly 2 years... It finally reached critical mass in my car at the beginning of September. Yellow fill washer fluid light has been on for weeks despite the tank being full.
