do you have a part number for those caps please sir?

Have a look: Yes, I contacted AWE. They put me in touch with the dealer. The dealer is telling me this is "normal". Horseshit. Looks like piss-poor design - and the problem is getting worse. Anyone else have this issue? Clearance is ~2.5". Car is lowered 3/4" all the way around on...

Anyone have a RossTech cable and a 2015 GTI??? Here's why. I've been tracking my (non-ECU tuned but FBO) 2015 GTI SE DSG pretty regularly, and recently was at Thunderhill and the car threw a P2006 code at me and went into failsafe mode on track - wouldn't make more than 5 lbs of boost, etc...

or bueno, whatever. been a while gang, work's nuts and I haven't had must time to post. Long story short, FBO 15 GTI and this morning the car stopped farting. What's more, it does it ECS on, ECS reduced, or ECS OFF. ambient temps low 60's F. also the DSG is shifting a LOT "softer" for lack of...

I'm a bit confused - looking for clarification. H&R lists the same part # (28851-11) for both Golf and GTI applications. They also list the drop as 1.5" - 2.3" up front and 1.1" - 2.0" in the rear. Currently I'm on VWR springs and stock dampers and about 1.2" down - perfect drop, IMO, and...

Welcome to another brutally honest review on products for our beloved Mk7 GTI's. As a precursor, I am running Neuspeed RSe10's and could not be happier with the wheels, but that's a story for another day. Goal here was to add an analog boost gauge to my car to and leverage the P3Cars vent...

Wash and P3Cars analog boost gauge/Track Pack chip working out the kinks, appears that the Neuspeed boost tap isn't helping dynamic air intake temp display, but overall pretty happy aside from the high RPM WOT buzz from the P3 analog plug-in.

Up for grabs is my 1 month old MINT set of OZ Leggera HLT wheels in 18x8 ET48 with PSS tires. No dings, scratches, curb rash, nothing - like new wheels and barely used tires. Here's a link to the wheels at Tire Rack - this is the only place I'm aware one can buy them in the US. These bad boys...

Mk7 GTI Catch Can Options - edit: Bought one! Brutally honest review unfolding... I'm seriously considering a catch can for my GTI. Seems intelligent as I drive the ever living hell out of my GTI - I see the following available options: IE...

I bought my third VW in March, this is my first GTI, and it was love at first drive. I determined that whatever mods my inner hoonigan urged me to do would be tasteful and in keeping with performance enhancements, so I got started. Current: - SunTek all the way around, 25% on sides...

I had my doubts, even read RJ's comments, but figured what the heck, I'll try it and if it makes my GTI feel like a Civic, I'll yank them back out. Through an alcohol-fueled ordering debacle, I ended up with two of them. The vendor's being really cool about taking them both back for store...

Took some pics today: Loving it. VWR Sport Springs are giving me the perfect drop, great ride, NO rubbing at all anywhere under any conditions, the car's a totally different animal now, and starting to see the performance enhancements of the Eurocode bits (tower braces, tunnel brace)...

took some potato pics:

wasted $35 bucks on ErWin hoping for a series of repair manuals... bollocks.

noted minor changes on the Black 6MT DCC R version on display. sorry for potato pics. first this little gem: then this riveted ECU "guard" cover: and finally this, which actually made me laugh out loud, long and hard: wow.

wheels. tires. alignment. all out attack on my favorite road. Michelin PSS tires made this a totally different car. tGo

Deutsche auto parts: 8V0-802-846 8V0-825-272 8V0-802-845 8V0-825-271 These combined with the ECS kit HERE: http://www.ecstuning.com/ES251835/ Gave me all the parts I needed. one hour install, PITA to seat the bungs until I used a large socket to seat the bungs initially, twisting to make...

installed the Audi jack pads into my GTI front and back - the rubber bungs were a bitch to get seated out back,even with lubrication and a 27mm socket on my jack. once they're in, though, they're in. also bought the necessary trim bits up front to do the same thing there. a bit easier to get...

Those outer lights on my halogen (yeah, I know) equipped GTI are in there so tight that i'm afraid I'll have to pull the entire lamp assembly to replace the bulbs. if i have to do THAT, then i'm going to maximize the effort and do a Forge Twintercooler and Ed's lights. looking to delay that...

I've been agonizing about new wheels for my '15 Reflex Silver GTI SE, but have managed to narrow it down to these three choices: BBS CH-R, 18x8.5 ET47, 23lbs OZ Leggera, 18x8 ET 48, 18.6 lbs Neuspeed RSe10, 18x8.5, ET 45, 19.9lbs Any choice will be shod with Michelin PSS in 235/40ZR18...
