They were put in the same time the TT was, so it's been about 6 months.

I didnt do the brillo yet. Kram said it worked, i just been lazy and havent gotten around to it yet. After a week of driving the rasp has actually mellowed out quite a bit in normal driving. Its barely there between 2-2500 but when i stomp on it, its there.

I used very fine steel wool from Home Depot. I stuffed it PACKED! Barely enough to blow through the hole and had to use clamps to put in sensor.



I have one more fix that was sent by a member on here and I will keep you updated if it works it.

I have the GTM prototypes on my car and all's good. I'm sure others would still curious to see if your solution is more cost efficient though.
