Seal kits are cheap and fairly easy to do on the bench. If you buy the genuine one you get assembly lube as well which makes the job go a lot easier. Its not particularly expensive from TPS.

A little while ago, I took a trip to Andy’s place (pre coronavirus days) to buy roof bars. He let me have a drive in his TT - that’s why I bought one! His is a really nice, tight car, and I was instantly struck. After an 8 month search, I found a fully specced TTS in Glasgow, which needed some work, but I love it! Thanks Andy ��

5 years of ownership and not much has gone wrong to be honest (change the oil and filters every 6k miles)
