Default S3/RS3/TT rear diff interchangeable?

My 16' S3 has a bad rear diff clutch, and a local wrecker has a complete diff from a 16' S3, or a complete rear diff from a 17'TT.
Not wanting to pay $4k+ for a new clutch assembly or put another 2016 diff back in, would the 17' TT have the same rear? The wrecker said its part code PYP...
wondering if controller would be plug n play, or if vcds will be needed to do this swap.

Probably... just look up the part number in one of the many online audi parts catalogs... Search on something like "wholesale Audi parts". If the PN is the same, it won't matter what it came out of. There are minor revisions, usually a letter change at the end, and the later letters are newer parts. Less clear if those are straight plug and play, but usually are.
