Advice On Modifications...

nope like them though...

quick question - when locking the ol' bezza with the remote locking pressing lock once locks it and does pressing it twice dead lock it?

just went for a quick spin, came back put her to sleep (in the garage of course! ) and locked her and when i pressed it once the 'light' flashed on the door however when i pressed lock again it sounded like it dead locked however the light didnt flash....just a bit confused

Yup, that's the deadlocking. I usually deadlock it anyway.

I've got so used to deadlocking, I pressed the fob twice on my dad's VW Transporter, expecting the 2nd press of the fob to deadlock it. Came back out later and realised that doesn't deadlock it, the 2nd press of the fob actually UNLOCKS the driver's door only!

i'm used to locking my mums focus which deadlocks when pressed twice....so i'm guessing deadlocking is better than just pressing it once??

(is deadlocking were if the car is broken into the car cant be opened from the inside aswell as the outside?)

was told but forgot

 

[Blanco92]

Deadlocking makes it so the doors won't open again unless either the key is inserted in the lock of the keyfob is pressed to unlock again. It makes it so that thieves can't just smash your window and open a door... if it's deadlocked the door will stay locked as they have no key.

My door locks are playing up;

If i lock them from inside on the drivers door the drivers locks and the passenger will lock and unlock itself straight away! If i lock them from the key they both lock properly!?

You're best going to your local Audi dealer for the TT pedals, as mentioned in Chris_a_73's reader's ride. You need the following part numbers:
TT Clutch Pedal – 8N0721174A01C
TT Brake Pedal – 8N0721173A
TT LHD Accelerator Pedal – 8N1721647B

Should come to ~£35 inc VAT.

Footrest plate available separately here on eBay. You've got the choice of GTI, VRS, or FR logos, or plain ones without a logo.

ok thanks does anyone know if different coloured 'S' logos are made? i know gel covers are made for fords & i saw some on a Kia c'EED the other day just wondered about my lil ol bezza

 

[Chris_a_73]

Doubt it very much to be honest mate! The only gel badges I've seen are replacement centre cap stickers...

Most people just spray the background of the S and keep the front chrome, or spray the whole lot black or something...

What colour were you thinking?

 

[marksy93]

not sure just thinking more about the front end - going to sort it out this payday hopefully
