    Traded in my GTI because it needed a turbo replacement

    Around August the wastegate actuator on my turbo went and I replaced it with ECS's aftermarket option, however it still didn't fix the problem. The dealer and an independent shop told me I needed a turbo replacement. After all that I finally decided to trade in the car because I didn't want to...

    Damaged front grill, is it fixable?

    In the summer I had a stone go into my grill right inside the VW emblem and broke most of the plastic behind the emblem.

    Driving home last week a road work crew past me going the other direction. When I passed them I heard something that I thought sounded like sand or rocks hitting the side of my car. I pulled over to find it was bright yellow paint. The kind they use to do the lines for the roads. Long story...

    What are these mods?

    Someone from my area gave me some gifts he said wouldn't fit/work with his car, Audi A4 I think. He wasn't even really sure what the mods were because someone else gave them to him. So, does anyone know what this stuff is? Thanks.

    Lost my DSG farts after Eurodyne tune

    Just got back from getting my car tuned. Eurodyne stage 1.5 ECU and DSG. On the drive home I had the chance to do a few launches on some back roads and I heard none to very minimal DSG farts/pops than before. Just wanted to add that I liked the farts/pops and would like them back, thanks.

    Opinions on Touren wheels?

    Hey, I am about to buy and have these wheels installed next weekend and wanted to know if anyone had any experience or info on the Touren TR60/w red wheels, before I go through with it. Are these a better performance option then the Austins? I don't know much about wheel upgrades. Thanks.

    Front GTI lettering fell off.

    I went away for the weekend and when I got back the "I" off the front of the car was sitting in my driveway. Somehow the letter came off. Will the dealer fix this for me or do I need to make a warranty claim? I've purchased the car from the dealer 3 months ago.

    Opinions on DP sound/performance

    I'm considering a catted DP. I currently have a muffler delete. I wouldn't want the car to be any louder then it is, so what good performance muffler options are there? Also, is it worth it for me? Only real performance mod I have is a JB1 on default settings. Would I only see a small gain to...
