Default Hey, New Owner Quick Question

So I just recently purchased my first car with my own money and I was lucky enough to find the new love of my life lol, my Audi TT Quattro 2001. But I'm a little skeptical see I live in Canada and there expensive here so I had to Ask my uncle to find me one in the states and send it up we found one but I haven't seen the interior just exterior I've Notice a lot of TTs Steering wheels look at yellow ish like its grinded to the rubber and not black..... So I'm a little worried anyone know if thats a common problem?.

I've never see that before. Maybe it is faded from the sun? Their is a product called "back to black", and it usually fixes this. It substance actually isn't black either (doesent come off and make your hands black).

Congrats on the car! I would love to have a tt for a first car.

if your in canada and want a TT, your in for a lot of work to make it street legal. First the TT's in Canada have what we call tumors and the US cars dont. Kind of hard to miss that one. There are some threads about importing them to Canada you should read first if you havent. BTW, i have yet to see a nice leather TT steering wheel become yellow

Oh no worries everything has been done to convert it. I've already paid for it and expecting it to arrive this friday super excited, its black leather interior but I found a picture of the wheel. Hopefully it uploaded.

Thats either a suede or neoprene cover on the wheel. Thats not a normal cover.
