    MK7 "Random / "Stupid" Questions Thread"

    Thanks, I found a thread here last night that had the same info... I guess I will try swapping the old module in to see if that makes the cornering light work and go from there. Hopefully the seal is the same size on both modules. @Cuzoe @DV52 can I program this with OBDEleven? Or is ODIS VCDS...

    MK7 "Random / "Stupid" Questions Thread"

    Question for the electronic / coding gurus here. I had both my headlights replaced by a body shop, they lost the seal of one of the LCMs I noticed because the light fogged up in a day. They order a new LCM because supposedly VW don't sell just the seal for the one I have, today I noticed that...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    This depend on the exact location of the GTI tips, vs the dual opening on the diffuser. You could use some regular dual tips as below. Or offset duals like below. I doubt it would be a perfect fit... I do know there are several Aliexpress sellers that will make custom tips to whatever specs...

    Street Touring Hatchback (STH) discussion/setup

    Ok, I thought it was a different one, as the one highlighted title is 15.5.C

    Street Touring Hatchback (STH) discussion/setup

    Ain't the comment in H contradictory to the statement you highlighted? C. don't allow changes in geometry, but H. allows for camber kits, which include ball joints.

    Wow, those were $267 last year when I was considering the conversion.

    Rear Tires Rubbing - Corrective Options

    Maybe a slight push outward with one of those fender rollers may give you the little relief you need now. If you set the wheel to push instead of roll it should push the entire area out instead of just the edge. I did that on the rear of my GTO.

    What did you get in the mail or bring home for your MKVII today?

    This is on my "I want" list. I never use the fog lights, useless here as we rarely get fog that requires you to go 5 mph and look at the road right in front of the car. Proper fogs will be installed if I can figure out how, I have a set of brand new fully sealed Ford Fusion fogs that I bought...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    OEM glass is crap, every time I had a hit on the glass it turned into a crack. I already have quite a few hits on the replacement glass and so far only one very small chip. Dealership overcharges for glass replacement. Also, every time you replace the windshield on the insurance is one hit...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Check around for small companies, Safelite wanted $800 out of pocket with no insurance, I found a place with great reviews that only charged $350. If you had ACC I wouldn't recommend a small shop, but the rain sensor is an easy replacement and don't require calibration as far as I know.

    Intercooler recommendation

    IC is probably toasted, I hit what looked I though was a coyote or bobcat, my radiator, intercooler, core support were toasted. They also replaced the AC condenser as it was bent and they didn't want to take any chances. I was able to replace the radiator with the ECS aluminum one as they were...

    Taking headlights apart

    The first time you do it is a PITA, especially if you have not done some butyl headlights before so you know kinda what to expect. Permseal is a rubberized epoxy, and very hard to separate, not impossible. When people have problems is when over heating the case, as it will distort. The ones on...

    Is it perception or does that cat is 3.5" to 3"?

    Taking headlights apart

    No you won't. While cutting is easier, it is also harder to seal back together without a glob of epoxy or silicone. They are not easy to open, but has been done plenty of times. Also, replacing the permaseal with butyl will allow you to open them in the event you need to get inside of them...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    check what clearance you have right now, I have 245/40/18 PS4S on 18x8.5et42, and they barely rub on the front on hard dips. Still haven't installed the EuroSport puck as I am debating getting the 034 Camster plate instead. On your 18x9, thinking they are the et45, the tire should fit 3mm...
