    Great Thread! Don't feel too bad about your Dad...he's an exception since he's a monster on two wheels as well.

    ESC Automatically Turning Back On

    your issue is that your car is too low. i bent the level sensor arms and you need to raise the car bit by bit until you don't get the error. i can almost 100% guarantee that's the issue

    Want more front camber? Powerflex Bushings is the Answer!

    One thing I forgot to mention is that i got an alignment recently, and they were at the -2.5 to -2.6 range, so not that drastic as when I first installed. Didn't change anything else.

    So far so good. About 3k miles, and a couple track weekends, and no issues.

    Recording Steering Wheel Angle and Brake Pressure?

    Hey! any insight in helping me get started. I purchased a RaceCapture/Track, but would rather log through OBD as it's less wiring, and well I go to the track so little, just want some additional channels that AP already has. Any help appreciated.

    Want more front camber? Powerflex Bushings is the Answer!

    I had the complete SuperPro LCA. The bushing started separating after 8k miles, and they replaced it under warranty thankfully. I decided to try this route and was able to squeeze a bit more camber.vs the SuperPro LCA. longevity is still to be seen.

    I have various mounts, so I always had a bit of NVH going on, don't think it added it to it.

    Macan Brembo owners who track their Golf, pls weigh in.

    My ST-60s helped with overheating and glazing the pads for sure. I had that same disc issues with the zimmerman rotors and macan brakes with the shuddering. It was annoying to say the least

    according to Pagid, the size of the brake discs are the biggest thing in cooling. It's a huge heat sink.

    MK7.5R Burning Oil/Coolant Smell

    just checked my 2019 R and it has the BL version and not the BM. On track I never had any issues with blow-by, but maybe worth upgrading to the BM. I would do an aftermarket one, but it gets cold here, and I'm not going to worry about a catch can.

    MK7.5R Burning Oil/Coolant Smell

    i have checked for leaks around the thermostat housing and nothing. Nothing visual around the turbo, at least I can see. I can smell coolant though. Never changed PCV valve on this car.
