Tech threw quite a few parts at TT during last 12 days...
MAF, instrument cluster (rolls over new security code daily on this version), fuel sensor, wiring issues, latest DV... will it last? (Bailey gave up the ghost after 50K miles), new door strikers, updated software for ESP (not so quick to engage with this version), 30K service, and assorted other stuff. Everything is fixed.
Good to have proper MTM snap back in engine as it was intended. Took goofy all-weather Toyos up the mountain to test ESP in snow... not bad... lifts scheduled to open 11/22.
Frankly, it's good t/b out of the A4... the car does not fit me, but it was fun to play with for 800 miles.
That is all.

Just the routine bag of problems that go with owning TT...
Dead fuel gauge, secondary air injection DTC, rattling roadster doors, flat performance on bottom end, so on and so forth...

Really great..having a blast with the car...in particular>>>
it is "just a Focus" and the so many under estimate what this car can do. As soon as the Euro RS rear disc brakes go on (calipers being powder coated) all is complete except the supercharger which is next. I really think I have the suspension thus handling totally dialed in...car is so quick in the corners and absolutely no surprises when pressing... just tonight played around with a MR2 turbo which can take me in a straight line but in a corner could go inside his radius...very surprised look on the driver...you know...taking the corners will take a race.
