Audi A2 (99-05) Tuning & Performance Parts

Shop Audi A2 tuning and chassis upgrades for the 8Z at Awesome GTI. Tired dampers and corroded rear discs are common first jobs, and a remap for the TDI makes more sense once the car stops and handles properly.

Most of our Audi A2 parts made for the 8Z itself are suspension and brakes, with KW, Bilstein, Koni and H&R on the springs and dampers and EBC and Tarox on the stopping side. For Audi A2 accessories, Team Heko wind deflectors let you crack a window in the rain. The rest of the grid is universal detailing and workshop kit.

Choosing Audi A2 Tuning Parts by Engine

Our Awesome TDI remap for the 1.4 TDI PD 75 takes the stock 75bhp to 90-95bhp and lifts torque from 144 to around 180 lb-ft, and there's a map for the later PD 90 too.

If you'd rather sort it yourself on the driveway, the RaceChip RS plugs in with about ten minutes' work and adds 15hp on the 75 or 17hp on the 90. On a PD 75 that's the bottom end of what our remap gives you, but the box comes off again if you sell the car.

On the petrol cars, the gains come from the chassis, with HT leads for the 1.4 16v. Bilstein B6 Sport front dampers work with the standard springs if you just want the ride back. If you want it 25mm lower too, the Koni and H&R Sport Suspension Kit pairs four adjustable Koni dampers with H&R springs, in separate petrol and 1.4 TDI versions.

Two Fitment Checks Before You Order

The 1.2 TDI 3L needs checking first. It's left out of several suspension kits, the H&R diesel springs among them, so read the title before it goes in the basket.

Front brakes depend on disc size, since A2 front discs come in 239mm and 256mm, so measure yours or call us and we'll check. Tarox front discs are made in both sizes, while our EBC front discs and pads are listed for 256mm cars and don't include the 3L.

Why A2 Owners Choose Awesome GTI

We've been at this since 1989, and our Manchester workshop can fit what you buy here. Every remap we do is verified on our Dynojet rolling road before and after, and our TDI remaps come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Unused, unfitted parts can come back within 14 days of delivery.

Call 0161 776 0777 and you'll talk to a real person who knows a PD 75 from a 3L. Get in touch and we'll check the fitment with you, or browse the Audi A2 parts catalogue below.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which engine is the best for an Audi A2?

The 1.4 TDI, for most owners. The 75 has the better reliability record and the 90 is the stronger of the two. Both take our remaps and the RaceChip RS. The 1.2 TDI 3L is the most frugal but misses out on several suspension kits. The 1.6 FSI has the more troublesome reputation.

Which tuner is best for an Audi?

There isn't one tuner who's best for every Audi, so look for dyno-proven results on your exact engine. A map is written for the engine rather than the badge, which is why our PD 75 remap also suits the 1.4 TDI Polo and Fabia. We show you before-and-after runs from our own rolling road.

Why is the Audi A2 special?

Its all-aluminium body. Audi calls it the first compact car in recent history built that way, on its Audi Space Frame. The 1.2 TDI 3L weighed just 855kg and used only 2.99 litres per 100km. It was expensive to build and never sold in the numbers Audi hoped, and it's since become a cult car.

What are common Audi A2 problems?

Mostly age-related wear. Tired dampers, rear discs corroding from light use, wishbone failures on post-2002 cars and a notchy gearchange from worn selector bearings are the usual ones. The 1.4 petrol can suffer coil pack faults, and the TDI's cambelt needs doing on schedule, which our timing belt service covers with genuine or OEM parts.
