It is a great upgrade going to the B16's. I would get a very good alignment and corner balance done after. Learn how to drive the car for a bit and then add the DSC box. Its a hoot!

I went the 4.0 route about 5 years ago and have not looked back. I added a few things as you can see from my sig. Very happy with the grunt the car has with the low end torque.

2015 TT Steel Rotors

Hi guys, I have a friend that is purchasing a 2015 TT with steel rotors on centerlock wheels. Are the rotors the same as those for a 991 GTS with centerlock wheels?
Thanks in advance.

Take a look at the power plug under the battery tray. It's red in color. Unplug it and take a wire brush to the pole. Use some dielectric grease on the pole before you put the plug back in.

Climate Controls (A/C, Heat, Fans, Defroster....) Stop Working After Battery Charge

I had to charge up the battery a few weeks ago due to not driving the car enough. I actually had to pop the frunk lid by doing the jumper cable trick.

The climate control unit will not work now....
