This is the hydraulic system from an Audi TT that would power the soft top. Here is the hydraulic pump unit. Oil Tank is on the left. Power is 12v DC at ~20A
The pair of hydraulic cylinders that attached to the roof mechanism.
One of the cylinders has a limit switch built in. The brass bolt coming out of the side of the head is one contact. The other contact is the cylinder body.
Marking on the hoses. This is Parker Polyflex hydraulic hose. 1/8″ ID.
Drive motor for the hydraulic pump. Standard DC permanent magnet motor.
Motor power terminals & suppression capacitors. As the reversing relays actually short the motor out when de-energized, there is a lot of arcing at the brushes without some suppression.
Reversing relay stack. Each relay is a SPDT configuration. The pair are arranged as a DPDT bank to reverse the motor, depending on which relay is energized.
Detail of the oil tank showing the level markings.
Solenoid valve on top of the unit. This valve provides full pump pressure to the cylinders when energized.

Comments in English please 🙂
Google translate didn’t do a very good job on this, but from what I can tell you are saying that nobody is qualified to replace the pump at the garage your car is at?
These pumps are not difficult to replace in the slightest. Anybody with some technical knowledge should be able to perform this task.
Where is the pump in a 2008 3.2 TT quattro? And how do I access it? Thanks for your help
Hi Russ,
Honestly, I have no idea, as I did not obtain the pump from a car directly. Apologies for that. 🙂
