Hi, I need to check that I am looking for the correct replacement wheel for my TT but can't find it (without taking the wheel off which I can't do at home due to a sloping driveway). I've seen one that looks the same but came off a TFSI ... Can anyone advise? It's a 2012 Audi TT 2.0 TDi...

Definitely makes a difference! I have now got the same polisher and am learning panel by panel! What I am also learning is just how hard Audi paint is ... I've read about it and I can say it must be true. I have some swirls that are proving very stubbourn, so I'm going to keep reading up and...

That's looking very nice indeedy - did you do it yourself or was this a professional job? I used to have an A3 in silver and I didn't give it the care it deserved. Black really looks the best when fully buffed though (my TT is in black), and I am totally committed to looking after it - got the...

This looks seriously good! Thank you ... Thank goodness also that the polisher is out of stock but I appreciate the code ... definitely very tempted now :) Rain forecast for tomorrow, so it'll have to be an interior clean after work in the morning! I have some leather care waiting to go!!!

Thanks! £200-£300 seems to be the minimum from what I've been able to find out locally (there are lots of high spec cars round here), with much higher prices for the full service. I can't knock it, as there are serious hours involved and I appreciate it can't be rushed, but that will have to be...

Thanks - it's July 09, so looks like it might need to come out. I thought it was only >2010 :(

Thanks again for the advice ... fortunately for my bank balance, the polisher is currently out of stock, but I have been put on the list to be notified for when it comes in. I might treat myself in the future. In the meantime, I have ordered some Poorboys Blackhole and also picked up some...

Thanks - I'm near Manchester, so plenty of potential choice for excellent detailers, but like you say, they are expensive. Any recommendations on a DA polisher?

Silly me - I've only just seen this sub-forum and realise I should probably have posted my question here. I've put a link to the post below, but in short I'm planning a stage 1 remap for my Audi TT 2.0 TDi 2009 Quattro. Dithering between Revo and Shark, looking for advice and recommendations...

Thanks for the advice, guys! The remap will happen next week, either Revo or Shark, and I'm guessing either will do a good job from what's been said :) Quick additional question ... the car will be serviced before the remap and I have also put new air and fuel filters in, so that it will be in...

Excellent advice again - thanks Giosabcsl, and especially regarding the difference between the rotary and the dual action. This definitely gives me more confidence, and as you say, I could learn to do it myself rather than pay someone hundreds to do it (and which I really can't afford/justify)...

Thanks, russwuss, that's great info and advice! Your car looks amazing! Cars for my husband are just workhorses to get from A to B. Fortunately or unfortunately, I grew up with a rather obsessive dad in terms of cars, so both my brother and I are quite enthusiastic about cars (although brother...

Thank you ... absoutely nothing wrong with being a bit of a perfectionist and having an eye for detail. Remember, it's only OCD if you can't control it and it serves no real purpose. I suppose in car terms that would only really mean polishing an already clean and polished car ;) Hmm, might be a...

Hi, Just found this great site. Lots of useful advice around. I used to have an A3 but traded it in at 120,000 miles for this a year ago: Now 4 years old and love everything about it (athough going for a stage 1 remap shortly) ... I think my husband suspects, actually, but he doesn't think...

That looks pretty awesome ... bet it costs a bit, and that was without the machine polish! Just shows what can be done though :)

Thanks, that's useful to know. I guess I was just looking for an indication of what I might need to pay - the car has been clayed and polished, so it would be more a case of polishing out swirls and light superficial marks. Some panels are fine, but the bonnet is the worst bit.

Hi, My Audi TT is black and although I have worked hard on polishing it (including claying - what a great product!!!), but there are still some surface scratches and swirls that I haven't managed to remove, and I am worried about removing the top laquer if I cut too much. I have been told that...

Thanks - I have heard good things about Votex but never actually used them. I spoke to Mike who does the remaps and he seems very knowledgeable and there was no hard sell, plus a money back guarantee if not satisfied which is definitely worth factoring in :) TBH, I'd rather deal with an Audi...

Thanks, will look into that! Are Shark better though or just a similar flavour to the others, I wonder?
