I am selling my built block 2015 Oryx White Volkswagen Golf R with DSG (automatic dual clutch transmission) and DCC (electronically adjustable ride stiffness). It has factory leather, navigation, Fender audio, heated seats, backup camera and parking sensors. This car makes for a comfortable all...

They say you have to pay to play when it comes to modified cars and it looks like I've officially joined that club. A few weeks ago I took the car to the local drag track and after pulling into the parking lot after a pass I noticed my CEL flashing which typically indicates a misfire. I cleared...

I noticed recently that my headlights are pointed too low. I've had some work done recently (LPFP install at one shop and tires/alignment at another) so I inspected the headlight level sensor under the car in case it was disturbed but it looked to be in good shape. The headlights are otherwise...

I'm noticing a good amount of wheel spin in 1st/2nd gears when using launch control and wondering if logs can assist in diagnosing haldex issues. I get a good amount of spin with launch control but if I'm just cruising at 3k rpm in 1st gear with traction full off in manual mode I'm not able to...

I'm selling an OEM IS38 turbo from my own 2015 Golf R with 28k miles on it. It's in great shape and only being sold because I replaced mine with an aftermarket turbo. Selling turbo with OEM turbo muffler for $750 plus shipping:

Has anyone moved from Eurodyne tune to Cobb? I’m working with a local shop on an upgraded turbo and Cobb tune (I prefer Cobb over ED for custom tuning) and the shop is having trouble getting the Cobb to work (base flash looks to apply but load targets stuck at stock levels). The owner of the...

I'm looking at a few turbo upgrade options for the 7R and had the opportunity to get a baseline dyno done. Hoping for a 100whp gain with a turbo and HPFP upgrade.

I've been reading a lot about haldex failures on the Golf R's and want to know what the cost of a replacement would be if mine failed? I can take care of the labor so I just need to know the cost of the part. I'm nearing 28k miles and am tuned so I wouldn't be surprised if it goes.

Figured some of you may not check the other sub forums on a regular basis. Write up on the install: http://www.golfmk7.com/forums/showthread.php?t=38889 More pictures: http://www.golfmk7.com/forums/showthread.php?t=38886

The installation is pretty straightforward and pretty much bolt on. You can see modification to the dust shield in the picture. The electronic brake wear indicator plug was looped to stay off so brakes will require visual wear inspection as these brakes aren't compatible with the 7R setup. My...

Took a few photos after the TT-RS brake install:

I just got the resonator delete installed this morning and its a good pairing with my catted downpipe. Still fairly quiet in the cabin in D mode where the rpm's are typically below 3000 and the exhaust valves are closed but aggressive in S mode with the valves open especially above 3000 rpm...
