Apart from differences in leather colour such as Satin Black and Moccasin, the physical shape of the steering wheel has also changed. As a result, Airbags of both generations, for example, are not interchangeable. The first version up to August 2000 has a more oblique transition from steering wheel to airbag. The second version from August 2000 onwards has a straighter transition between steering wheel and airbag. In addition, the first version has a redAudi logo at the bottom of the steering wheel.

The first version up to August 2000 has a more slanted transition from steering wheel to airbag. The second version from August 2000 onwards has a straighter transition between steering wheel and airbag.

There are also steering wheels for the TTs with TipTronic and DSG automatics, where it is possible to shift gears on the steering wheel. These have the same transition between steering wheel and airbag as the 2nd version.

Based on generation, colour leather, stitching, and shift functionality, there ended up being more than 30 variants of TT steering wheels. In the last 2 years of production alone, there are no less than 32 variants in the parts catalogue (ETKA).
