The light comes on at about 3mm so either the tech made an error in measurements (maybe he included the width of the metal backing which is a few mm) or something is wrong. This assumes you have...

Battery is in the trunk, right side as you are looking into the trunk. Changing the battery for the Mk 3 TTRS is the same as the Mk 3 TT and TTS and any year Mk 3 video will do. There is nothing...

You must also consider the TT tranny. I don't think a TT tranny can handle TTS power reliably. The APR Stage 1 low torque tune was designed to the torque design limit of the TT tranny. Anything...

New TT sales in the US the past few years was just awful. The average dealer only sold 1 TT every 2-4 months. That is the primary reason why late model used TT are so scarce. The primary source of...
