    DIY: MIB1 > MIB2 NEW SIMPLIFIED Method

    Totally. This is not fresh in my mind and I want to be clear that I'm not a real expert in this, but everything that you need should exist on this listing now. 1. This is pretty easy 2. I'm not sure you need to do all that. 3. So on mine, I was never able to get it to successfully backup. So...

    DIY: MIB1 > MIB2 NEW SIMPLIFIED Method

    I don't know what happened but I think it's gone. I updated the main post with some other links. Let me know if this works for you. Here is another site that had a tutorial that shows how to connect the Putty. Let me know if I left anything else out.

    DIY: MIB1 > MIB2 NEW SIMPLIFIED Method

    I don't know about the date and time menus. One of the cables is for a GPS antenna. In the USA at least, all early model golfs have the GPS antenna and it pulls time from GPS. You can turn that off in the settings. I'm not sure if that's one of your blank ports. In the USA we also get XM...

    Where did you source your USB port from? What year Golf did it come off of?

    DIY: MIB1 > MIB2 NEW SIMPLIFIED Method

    1. I believe it can be although I cannot recall hearing about this either way 2. YES, you can! In the threads I link to above there are instructions on how to wire in the Aux cable. It's as easy as wiring the USB cable. Just a few more wires, and I knew I would never use AUX

    Brake Caliper pad contact area - Germans different than Japanese?

    Are you sure? Of all the brake pads and brake pad kits listed on FCP Euro, there are only a couple that show this clip pictured. And it looks like they only have it available for the rear. I don't see any pads that have it listed for the front...

    Brake Caliper pad contact area - Germans different than Japanese?

    This is my first time doing a brake job on my vw (or any German car for that matter). In the past I've done brakes on my Honda and my sister's Nissan. The spot where the pads go always gets gunked up with pad dust and rust. I plan to wire brush this out to get it nice and clean: When I've...

    Rear pad change

    When pressing the caliper piston back in before inserting new pads, is it okay to use a C-clamp? I've read that it is necessary to use a tool that rotates it back in. This is my first time doing brakes on my Golf. I'm used to my Toyota and Honda before where a C-clamp was just fine.

    Cuzoe's 2015 Golf TDI S Journal

    Cuzoe, Time to do the rear brakes on my tdi sportwagen. I'm considering upgrading from 253mm to 272mm. I've followed a few threads and haven't come across the answer...but I assume I need a larger caliper, dust shield? And I think elsewhere you posted that you would need a longer brake line...

    Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my tdi to the standard GTI caliper setup (not the Performance pack). I am looking for calipers, and brackets. But would also take rotors/pads too if there is still life left in them.

    Brake Pads and SAE J866

    I head back from ID Parts. They confirmed Halten is their house brand and the pads are made in Taiwan. I asked them about durability: "Going with a Brembo or Bosch I know will be durable. Are you able to share if this manufactuer manufactuers other brands that I may recognize?" And he replied...

    Brake Pads and SAE J866

    Ficton rating...haha! Totally glossed over that. Yeah, I couldn't find anything online about this brand. I did email idparts to inquire on more information. I'm assuming it's probably some house brand made in China?

    Ceramic vs Low-Met Brembo pads

    It's time to replace the pads on my 2015 Golf sportwagen S tdi. This is my first time doing them since I've owned this vehicle. Usually I like to put Brembo pads on my cars. I'm trying to decide if I should go Ceramic of Low-Met pads. Does anyone have experience with the Brembo pads and any...

    DIY: MIB1 > MIB2 NEW SIMPLIFIED Method

    The site https://mibwiki.one/ will have more info on what can be done with TechniSat/Preh if that is indeed the manufacturer. I am not familiar with how to do this. But, also, look around. Golfs are pretty plentiful, and you should be able to find a Delphi unit like mine without too long of a...
