Could someone help me out with PCV part numbers?

I have a 2015 GTI with an old PCV. Should I upgrade to the '06K103495BL' revision or the '06K103495BM' revision? Does it even matter?

I remember someone saying the BL revision is the newer and better one, although personally I'm not sure how true that is

Anybody know how this goes together? IKEA has spoiled me. I thought the ring clamp was for the turbo, but I think I'm supposed to re-use my old one and use this one to join the mid-section. Also is there any kind of rubber washer or something comes off of the hold turbo clamp between the DP and the turbo that I need to reuse?

Question, why did my DSG farts go away once I got tuned??? I miss those.
You can find them a bit higher in the rev range. Push the gas in a tiny bit. Just enough to force shifts at 4K rpm. That should work

I think it went away because the derate time in between gears is less because the tranny is upshifting a bit quicker. I’m just guessing though

Decided to change my oil after the car had been sitting all night instead of warming it up first like I usually do. When I took the filter out the oil was still thick and cold and some spilled over onto the belt. Is this okay? I’m trying to wipe it off the best I can.

Belt might slip a little until it's worn off. Otherwise no problem.
