    "Can you VAG-COM that for me?"

    So, I'm bored out of my skull stuck in a shit town in the middle of nowhere. What's the funniest thing you've seen someone ask to be "VAG-COM'd"? I swear I've seen a post on here with some clown asking if his catalytic converter could be VAG-COM'd out for a freer flowing exhaust. Hey, I know...

    DSG flashes and "increased clamping pressure"?

    Hi guys, I've seen a few DSG flashes now that tout "increased clamping pressure" as their way of handling increased power. Does anyone know specifically how this is achieved and whether it has any significant drawbacks to be aware of? Thanks

    Aftermarket gauges - recommendations?

    Hi guys, I need an intake temperature gauge. I like the look of the Defi Blueracer ones but they only have a water temp gauge that goes from 30-150ºC. I don't think the water temp sender would work all that well for air temp and I'd like a slightly lower temp range. Can anyone recommend...

    BNE: Norris Group VW experience - advice?

    Hey guys, So my car has this intermittent lack of low down performance - below 3000 rpm ish. It's only occasionally, and comes good once I get past 3k. A few times the glow plug light has flashed and the MFD said 'Engine Fault - Workshop!' My mate brought his vag-com cable over and it brought...

    Oh dear.

    So I got a pretty random phone call today.... someone bought my old Golf - the one full of water. It was a GT TDI with DSG. Water was above the gear shift - inside the car. I wonder what it will take to get it running properly again? How well sealed is the mechatronic unit? I think it would...

    EOI: Classix with CSC2s (BNE)

    I'm likely to have these wheels and tyres available in the next few weeks. Wheels are in very good shape - three are perfect apart from spot very stubborn dirt. The third has some rash that's fairly minor, I'll touch this up before I sell them. Tyres are a few mm above the tread wear...
