Audi TTS engine covers

Here's mine

I'm very happy with my customised Evoms engine cover and so am not thinking of changing it. However, I'm sure I would have gone for this TTS option had it been available back in the day and I'm curious to know whether its fixings are similar to the OEM VW cover (which are so easily broken on cover removals)?

Look closely at this pic (click for bigger), there are two locating pegs left and right in the middle of the cam cover and one screwed into the middle if the inlet manifold.

....So unless I've got it completely wrong, the TTS engine cover uses very similar fixings which look like chess pieces and which can be problematic.

Thank you, btw

^^^^^ your absolutely right robin. My front one has broken off already

I've tried getting these bits from TPS in Stockport/Manchester and they're not finding the front lug.

I have used the part numbers which have been supplied on page one:

06F 103 925H engine cover

06E 103 164E front lug

WHT 000 731A two rear lugs

Anyone got any idea why they can't find this part number at TPS? :s

Cheers,

Those should be the right part numbers mate

The guy in the Audi dealer I tried first found all the lugs ok but got confused with the cover 

I've ordered a kit from VRSAlex that should be here tomorrow or Thursday  so I'll double check part numbers for you

Thanks a lot, that'd be great.

Any chance did you manage to double check those part numbers against the ones given on here Dave?

Hi Karl

Only got the engine cover this morning and looking on the back of it the part number is 06F-103-925-J

Unfortunately the 3 lugs don't have part numbers on them or the bag they came in but the dealer I went to found them ok with the part numbers i quoted earlier, it was the cover they had trouble with lol

Give VRSAlex a call and he'll be able to confirm the other numbers as I ordered it from him

Cheers for that Dave, much appreciated!

Quick pic of it fitted on my car  

Thanks again Alex

Thanks a lot for that Alex, I've no idea why TPS seem to be struggling to find the front lug but will try again on Monday and hopefully get a different person to check for me

Thanks for your help too Dave and I can't wait to get one, it makes the engine bay look a lot better in my eyes

Mine is finally ready for fitting too... 

Matt metallic grey along with gloss black, deleted the Audi badge and filled in the recess, re-painted the TFSI badge section and finished off with 3M gloss carbon vinyl. Don't know if the 3M vinyl will last under the bonnet but it is gloss black underneath, so no biggie to remove if needed
