    VW Areton ownership opinions

    I am in the market for another car for the family. My wife wants a more luxury oriented car. She is tired of driving around our 2011 Buick Enclave as she says it too big. I commute in a Chevy Bolt most of the week and now drive the GTI 1 or 2 days a week. Anyone own or have owned a Areton? I...

    More Soot after EQT 91 stg 2 tune

    I know our cars do make some black soot. But since I loaded the EQT Stg2/91 tune I think I have been getting more soot on start up. I never see smoke and don't lose any oil. My theory is that it is running a bit rich. I have always seen a bit of soot on the exhaust tips since the car was new...

    Rotor with 1mm ring around the perimeter

    Did a wheel swap yesterday to my winter tires. And I looked to see how the original break pads looked to see if I would be needing them soon. And to my surprise there is still a good amount remaining after 50k miles. But I did notice that the rotors seem to have worn down by about 1-2mm and...

    So I started to get slippage at 15k. Noticed it more after a JB1 add. I went with a Clutch master FX250 with a Sachs DMF as I didn't want the SMF after doing research an reading many threads. I also replaced the Slave cylinder. After speaking to a few Transmission shops(including the Dealer)...
