I swapped the steering wheel since long time and it was plug and play in the Rocco. The racing line DSG paddles was very easy too.
Here is the link for the installation

This fault appears after installing the iABED TSi Cam Follower Roller Conversion. I tried to install it without replacing the APR HPFP Spring but the car was misfiring then I installed the spring comes with the kit and the car started giving engine brake in the redline (the car stop by itself like you press the brake paddle hardly) and receive this fault!!

just clowning around
Sway bars advise.
————————-
I am comparing between the H&R and SuperPro sway bars.
Both will be same size; 24mm for front and 26mm for rear.
I will install them in my AWD Scirocco.
All opinions are more than welcome
Highly recommend H&R. I ran Hotchkiss and Eibach sways prior to H&R - they all do about the same thing but the main difference is their bushings. H&R bushings you never need to grease - they stay quiet and functional, going on 3 or 4 years now. The Hotchkiss fit and finish was garbage - finish peeling after a few months in the salt belt here in the US and the bushings need constant greasing. H&R are dead quiet and reliable.
EDIT: just realized that was a year ago.
Agreed, H&R bushings great, I have Eibach sways and they quickly started squeaking like mad, I ordered H&R bushings for them and everything quiet since.Highly recommend H&R.

Hi,
I was busy the last few months planning for the next upgrade step, and I did it!
DQ500, and Nortech G30-900 0.61A/R are completely installed yesterday. I am in the phase of checking the oil, air, etc leaks now; so, I will drive the car for a few days then will back again to the workshop to check them.
I am waiting for TVS Engineering to send the ECU & DSG files this week.
I am running now the Turbosmart Kompact Shortie Plumb Back that I was using with the EFR7163, any idea/recommendation for DV to use it with this turbo setup?

Just very quick and good update
The ECU has been forced to code the AWD parameter and now the car works much much better. The car behavior changed.
Thanks for my brother Ussama who is always helping me in such stupid things [emoji23]
Stay tuned, more is coming [emoji6]
How did you eventually convert the cluster to AWD?
