    Anyone changed their steering wheel?

    Looking at some high mile example main wear at times is the steering which let's it down

    Anyone changed theirs?

    Keeping to oem items, anyone interchanged with newer Audi steering wheel

    It is very common to fit the newer shape 8P wheels or TT wheels to the 8L, the main issue is the audio controls etc, and the 11 pin bolt which holds the wheel to the spline.

    By "let down" how do you mean? My wheel is on almost 200K and still looks great, are these the pre facelift leather wheels or the facelift ones?
