Has anyone ever had the Intake manifold flap system on a BPY, create a vacuum leak along the actuator arm/shaft?

so i have been throwing parts at my car for a few weeks now trying to correct my fuel trims. my idle trim is between -1.5 & -2.1 my partial trim is between +16 & +21, which is forcing the ecu to cut boost back. i have been on APR's stage 2+ for over 110000kms. vehicle mileage is almost...

So... some history on my car. Starting in 2009, I modded my car through Stage 1 and Stage 2+, I ran a South Bend/ DXD racing Stage 2 Endurance clutch, 'til I drove to work one day and a damping spring the disc popped out; That was about 2.5 - 3 years out of that clutch (Spring 2014). Pulled...

Yesterday, when I was backing into a parking stall at work, something caused my clutch to grab and not let go and nearly caused me to rear end the car behind me. AND then I can't press the clutch in. Based some of the post I have read, my current theory is a dampening spring fell out of the...

Any one use this kit yet? OB4sKKOqqAQ

So, I on my drive from work, my HVAC stopped responding (controls were not illuminated) and my rad fans were full speed the entire drive. Has this happened to anyone else? I didn't get time to VAG-COM it, I was dropping the car off for comeback on a leaky water pump. I had no CEL's either.

Can my runner flaps be a source of a vacuum leak on my intake manifold? It is a slight leak because my partial fuel trims (Block 32-2) are 19-20%. I've blocked off the PCV port, checked and sealed the IAT sensor port.... are the any other emissions ports that I should try blocking off? Some...

Firstly, I have been trying to figure out why my car has been cutting power via N75. Secondly, I found that engine is running rich via Block 32-2 at ~18%, sometimes peaking 22%. Change the O2 sensor, still roughly the same values, and the old sensor was black. Changed plugs, no improvement. I...

My car is running really weird. 123500kms and it runs like this -> click me APR pump was installed at 75000kms.

Looking for help: No boost. I have Logs [RESOLVED?] So my car is not boosting again, and it seems to be doing it more often now that Edmonton is dipping into the single digits for temperature. I kept my laptop in my car this time, so i have a couple logs to post and an auto-scan. I just walk...

The reason I am asking is 'cause I'm getting sick and tired of my car having to reset its timing and boost maps with each tank of gas. I believe the reason is the fuels around me have varying amounts of ethanol blended in up to a max of 10%, and the tune is not handling the changes very well...

Legit or some china hack build? Looking for a head unit on ebay.

:iono:

OK this year has been exceptionally cold this year, and there have been times when the car will not boost (~3-4psi) and other times it will hit Stage2+ power. I have not logged anything yet, because there is no consistency to this problem. No check engine light However, it does seem to be more...

I have heated seats in my MK5. I have found that there a few different versions of the mk6 auto climate control, whether it is from a gti, tiguan, etc. Will any of them with heated seat control work, or am I looking for a specific revision/design? What is the part number for the trim that goes...
