2017 GTI, Autobahn. I got a CEL and brought it my local shop. The reader indicated something about the ECU and they couldn’t read the code. I’ve got a stage 1 EQT tune, no aftermarket parts. If I flash it back to stock, will that solve the problem? Any advice appreciated.

I just got an EQT tune and don’t need my JB4 any longer. It has been terrific. I’m happy to give it up for a fair price. Make me an offer!

Just wanted to update this in case anyone else has this issue. The Safelite folks sent out another guy on a warranty call and he noticed the sensor pad wasn’t all the way adhered to the glass. On further inspection, the rear view mirror bracket was loose. He concluded it was “bad glass.” He...

2017 Autobahn manual I had my windshield replaced by Safelite after a piece of metal from a truck cracked it. After it was replaced, the autosensing function is going haywire - when activated (one click above the bottom) it starts off with the one swipe (no rain necessary) then increases speed...

I'm wondering about the mechanical process of downshifting hard - that is, fast downshifts without slipping the clutch or rev matching and getting back on the throttle hard. What parts of the car can be damaged or worn more quickly with these kinds of shifts? Obviously there is a hard lurch that...

At the JB4 box itself, or each connection in the engine bay? IIRC there’s nothing pluggable from the box so I suppose you mean the latter. It seems strange the car would run fine if they weren’t connected properly but I will check!

Yes.

Hey, I'm not sure this is the proper place for this question so I apologize in advance if it isn't. I replaced the battery in my 2017 GTI and now the JB4 isn't talking to the app completely. I've got the Bluetooth connect kit. I'm able to connect and it reads that it's on Map 3, and I get the...

I ordered and received an AGM battery from Advance in less than an hour. Installed it in less than 5 mins (I feel smart) and after a few initial codes, it seems like it will work. Thanks for the help.

It's a 2017, 34k miles. I got it started by leaving the JNC on it for 15 mins or so. This morning it tried to turn over but was dead again. I may need to jump itt again and leave it running for a little longer. Is there anything I might be missing that could be draining the battery?

Edit: It just started. I left the JNC on longer than before and I guess it juiced it up enough. Now I need to figure out why the battery died... (maybe I left the door open in the garage or something.) What are the signs of a dead/dying battery on a MK7? Or, if not battery, starter? I'm mostly...

No IC or E (you mean E85?), I'm running 93 with the stock intake and snow grate removed. Don't get me wrong, Map 3 is tremendous. I can't stay WOT for more than second or 2 in most situations. The lag at the bottom is still pretty noticeable but that's the nature of it I imagine. Would it...

Here's another log on Map 3. It was a nice cool morning so my temps should be better. I would love your suggestions for map 6. https://datazap.me/u/peterbeddowgmailcom/log-1589034722?log=0&data=1-4

What would install cost? I’m not sure I’m comfortable removing the front end. Also, description says it won’t work if the car has ACC. Mine does.

It’s really only this hot between May and September, and I can go easy until I have the disposable funds. What do I need to be aware of until then? Shall I stick with map 2, or are there some places I can improve with user settings?

Thanks brother! It was pretty hot - 89 I think. Shall I stick with map 3 for a minute then? Recommrnd me an intercooler and I’ll save up for one. This is the game, after all -

Okay, this isn't quite a clean a log as last night but I think I did what was needed. Can you guys take a look? 93 octane https://datazap.me/u/peterbeddowgmailcom/log-1588530774?log=0&data=1-4-5-36&mark=119

Fun! Okay! You guys are good friends. :)

Okay, I'm a newb. Are these winky smiles or is this a real recommendation? I'd love to get an idea of some Map 6 settings based on the logs I got yesterday. Here's the link on Datazap: https://datazap.me/u/peterbeddowgmailcom/nashville-3rd-gear?log=0&data=1-4 I’ve got a Sachs SRE clutch...

thanks, I didn’t realize I needed to log on map 2. Here’s a map 2 log: https://datazap.me/u/peterbeddowgmailcom/log-1588464609?log=0&data=1-4
