The matt issue - 2 ideas - velcro strip - one section to the reverse of the matt, and one section on the car carpet -- OR - adding some material to the hole in the matt which the stud situates in - - a suitable silicon maybe? Trial and error likely necessary
@@nagarage13 What are you going for next? I like the look of the Peugeot 'TT' (the RCZ), IIRC some of the petrol engines are chain, which is a +, but I wonder about wider build quality/design....
@kwakkers68 I'm not releasing the car I'm going with yet. But I need to sel this one first so yeah that might take a little while. The car will not be german or french...
l think squeaking brakes can be caused by stuck callipers. After a drive is one or more of the wheels excessively hot if it is it can fuck up your bearings and apparently even the wheel.
My biggest negative with a lot of the European engines in recent decades - the switch to cam belts. The durability, and common lack of servicing needed with chains makes this move ridiculous. Of course, some of the cam chain designs on the Mini have proved to be very problematic, notably in relation to their VVT, but that's down to this crappy design, rather than a flaw with cam chains generally. IIRC some of the TTs are chain - which are the only ones I would buy.
@@dh1380 I've never had a very modern car, so I don't know about the newer stuff, but I've never had a guide or chain break on any engine - and most of them had more than 100,000 miles+ on the 'clock'

Yeah could try that tbh. But I'm selling it anyways so fixing only the necessary at the moment.

I actually prefer keeping an eye on how old the belt is than trusting entirely in a chain and wondering when the guide will break 😅

What year is your Audi TT?
This is all just general wear and tear on any car really
