    Fuel Gauge/Pump Issue

    By adaption can I assume this means to calibrate the new fuel pump sending unit? Based on my reading of the VAG-COM that appears to be what's happing. I wonder if a OBD Eleven scan tool can achieve this as well? Thanks!

    Sunroof Drain Tube

    Well that was an option as well! But now I have to pull the headliner to see if the tubing has detached or needs replacing as the leak where the A frame and room meets is leaking like crazy!

    Sunroof Drain Tube

    Just wanted to provide an update. So ended up splicing on an extension to the drain tube. I first cut off about 3-4" of the drain tube and I put a 1/2" OD clear tube on the top part of the drain tube and the cut off piece. Doing this I was able to get the drain tube into the drain grommet...

    Intercooler Pipe Question

    So I bought a 2007 GTI and it had already had some mods. But upon further investigation the mods are not what I would call "standard" or "ideal". Specifically, the front mount intercooler pipe appears to be a home welding project that protrudes into the fog lamp cover area. So much so that...
