I was under the impression that the tt hubs were compatible . . . .

Jabbalad bought the TT hubs from me, I have PM'd him tonight to see how he has got on with them. Hopefully he will shed some light on the subject.

I have some TT arms to go on mine at some point but they are not compatible with the S3/Cupra hubs. I undrestand that the balljoint can go on the other side of the arm but it's not meant to and that means the knurled face will be redundant. I cant help feeling the balljoint may move if hitting a pothole etc.

Let us know if TT hubs fit on our car... :popcornsoda:

Knurled suface will face ball joint lock plate instead of arm. So yes it's not fitted as it have been designed for, but I don't think it will move, and nobody reported something like that.

....So not designed for purpose. Are you really prepared to risk a suspension failure because some 'internet expert' suggests it works and no-one has reported any problems.........   Yet!!  :stupid:

No Redrobin,

But I just trust my mechanics mind (my first job) as the knurled surface is not realy deep and that you bolt together row casted iron with soft alloy and that the nuts are grooved as well.
