    MK7 "Random / "Stupid" Questions Thread"

    Maybe soundaktor noise. Easiest way to turn off is to unplug. Or can set to 0% with VCDS/OBD11.

    MK7 "Random / "Stupid" Questions Thread"

    When warm it gets "almost" tight then continues to spin. I just stopped. Figure when it cools it'll be tight enough 🤔

    MK7 "Random / "Stupid" Questions Thread"

    Just how tight do the coil pack bolts need to be? Was getting misfires at max boost around 4K. Plugs have about 5 months on them (maybe 2K miles on them) Found mine pretty loose. Replaced the coil pack with APR's; plugs looked ok (not super burnt and properly gapped). I notice that when the...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    APR coil packs. Was getting misfires and EPC/check engine light at max boost around 4K. Plug replaced recently 5 months ago. Have not gone WOT as I found the coil pack bolts loose. I'm afraid if I go WOT shit can blow up. May helicoil all 4. Also added rear subframe locking collars. Will do...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Installed a Powerflex Front Lower Engine Mount Hybrid Bushing. I previously had the Torque Solutions Pendulum insert. TBH it feels the same. I still get some wheel hop on WOT. When I had Stage 2 engine/tranny mounts there was almost no wheel hop. Installation was kind of a b!%h since I was...

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

    Got Powerflex Front Lower Engine Mount Hybrid Bushing A and Bushing B. Put in a Torque Solution insert years ago when I got the car; there's the metal plate that covers the hole so I can't see which bushing I needed. Will return whichever I don't need. They look identical but they are stamped...

    3D Printer & C.A.D. Thread

    Every couple months my Creality will have a bad print. No idea why. Just finished a 6hr print and started a 3hr print. Came home and it was a massive blob around the hot end. Looks like it just stopped moving and continually extruded at the same spot. Heated up the nozzle and started snipping...

    3D Printer & C.A.D. Thread

    Hmmm Prusa Core One or Bambu Labs X1? I've only used Creality printers and may get a new one in a couple months. Some ABS printing. X1 is what Im considering; dont know if the extra $$$ for the Prusa is worth it.

    Super confused about headlight options

    The SE came with bixenon adaptive headlights (they turn at an angle when the steering wheel is turned 15 degrees or something like that) and no company makes them like that. TBH I'd probably buy a set off ECS Tuning since they have their lifetime warranty. OEM will run you around $2K...

    Gonna replaced my front sway bar bushings. Do I need the car level/loaded or can I just jack up the front? I’m lazy.

    New guy here intercooler question

    I bought the CSK/Majesty back in 2017. If I remember correctly you might need to modify the bottom U bracket so the radiator can fit. This is because some of the radiators had a different size mounting. I attached a picture of the area that I shaved with a angle grinder. If you test fit it and...

    New guy here intercooler question

    APR will have a sale so I'd get that. I have a few of their products and have no major issues. Might find a used one online. You already have their Stage 1 so might as well stick with APR. As a side note a intercooler will not "add" power but will prevent power loss (from heatsoak). You could...

    MK7 "Random / "Stupid" Questions Thread"

    I don't have any issues but at 8 years/60K I'm paranoid something is going to fail/break. Plus its a $50 part that I can probably install myself so why not.

    Exploded Bleeder Block

    Mine popped off about 3 months ago at work. I'm pretty sure the oring had shrank and that's what caused it to come off but I bought the ECS one because racecar. I have read about aftermarket bleeder blocks not fitting but mine has had no issues. You can buy the orings from Urotuning.

    What if you held the clutch pedal down and cracked the bleeder valve

    I think that would be faster. No need to get in/out of the car. I did it solo; press clutch couple times, open bleeder till no bubbles, close valve. Repeat couple times till fliud was clear. Maybe 6oz of fliud.

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Replaced the accessory belt. Mine developed a racing stripe from when the lower radiator hose/sensor came loose and was rubbing against it. Took about 15 minutes.
