My front ride height is even from left to right but my rear is not.
The left side is at least 1/2 inch lower than the right.

I've tried swapping springs, checking the shocks, and checking the swaybar. The height is still uneven. It's not too large of a difference but it bugs me. I know a few others have had this issue.

Anybody have any other ideas or solutions? ]]> Wheels / Tires / Suspension / Brakes stringshifter6 http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=107088 http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=107087&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 21:25:45 GMT Well I figured I would just start a new thread since this weekend I will hopefully put up a DIY for this.

Well I figured I would just start a new thread since this weekend I will hopefully put up a DIY for this.

Today I received the Eurojet Boost Gauge.

It is not installed yet as that will happen Saturday.

My first thought after opening everything was where the hell are the damn instructions!? Way to go Eurojet for not providing any instructions. I know how to install a boost gauge but many people buying this do not.

All parts seem of high quality. The gauge does not attach to the vent assembly, it just sits in there. The fit is tight enough that it shouldn't pop out or turn...I hope.

The wiring for the gauge includes power, ground, and two illumination wires. Now here is where instructions would help. There is an orange and white wire. Luckily I caught a post over on the Vortex regarding these two wires.

Orange = blue backlighting
White = white backlighting

For as long as these gauges were delayed you would think EJ could through together a simple instruction sheet. Also I'm not sure why they included a "no buzz" aquarium type fitting. Seems pointless to me, or maybe there is a point..well we wouldn't know since they don't tell us!

Well anyways enough of me blabbering you guys want to see some pics.

Ignore the needle not sitting at 0 as the gauge auto adjusts itself when turned on.

I don't have a R32 yet, but planning on getting one in a week. I have a choice of a 2008 R32 or a 2008 Mini Cooper S. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of maintance cost I'm going to be looking at down the road, or what kind of mechanical issues I'm going to be faced with. Any feed back will be appriciated. The car I'm looking at is White with 14K mikes on it.

My name is James and I've been considering purchasing a used gti. I've always liked the way they looked so I decided to look at one the other night and was quite impressed.

Anyways the vehicle in question is a 07 white 2 door manual. It's at the vw dealer in Glendale. It has 36k miles on it and they are asking $18,000. Is this an okay price? It looks like it's in great shape but I know very little about these cars, so is there anything in particular I should look for? Anything else i should know?

I'd much appreciate some feedback. Thanks!
