Well that’s your problem, springs can’t make a hatchback look like a sedan. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I had two iABED fail, revised OEM has been solid.

I never said lazy, shifting the subframe to equalize settings is not a poor way of doing things. It's just the nature of the business using the slop in the subframe to get things within spec (green) and sending you on your way. So having a deadset kit prevents that tech from utilizing that same...

What's the intent behind a deadset kit? To maintain the alignment of the subframe, set consistent and proper geometry, mitigate the potential shifting and clunking of things eventually moving? This problem is not unique to VAG cars, pretty much any car with a subframe nowadays is really the same...

The shop that recommends not having a deadset kit is using that to their advantage, at your expense. My caster is not equal side to side, and it’s a non issue. The not tracking straight is due to their alignment, that they should correct.

I think I’m getting bored of my car. It’s rarely driven outside of autox, and try as I might, I just don’t have much of anywhere to drive. 😕

Event #5 for the season, kind of a tough course. I just couldn’t pick up any real time through all eight runs. This was my second course I designed, and it kicked my ass to drive. Ended up 1st in STU, 3rd in RAW, and a crushing 13th in PAX. Today was a strange day, I just wasn’t feeling it...

Flaps still open at a certain rpm regardless of mode.

I just re-read that you said 6 piston, probably not on that list that meet that.

My cracks are worse than that. Not worth the worry for autox in my opinion. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ha, yeah, guess that's what I get for skipping so much school back in the day.
