I have a xenon bulb out and it's gonna cost me $200 to replace both bulbs. In the meantime is there a way using vagcom to use only the halogens? I poked around a bit, but it's been years since I set up everything on my car with vagcom and couldn't remember if I had the right settings or if...
I have about 104,000 miles on my 08 GTI. It's time for another oil change and I have heard of people adding seafoam to the oil and running it for a bit before an oil change. I tried searching but I couldn't find the info that I had read before. Anyone done this and recommend it? How long...
Looks mine mine is bad. I called around a few places, most say they can't even get them, O'Reilly said it would something like $350 with a $150 core charge. Seems excessive.
Anyone had luck finding them?
Is there just 1 SKU? If I can find another mkv will the alternator from it work?
So all 4 of my tires have tread wear that is much greater on the inside. My car has 94,000 miles on it, these tires about 50,000 miles. What does inside tread wear mean? Suspension? Alignment?
Also, the right rear looked very strange. It kind of dips off. It's hard to explain so I'll...
My 08 GTI has Revo software on it, but I've been running it stock for about a year. The battery got unplugged, my local shop went out of business and I didn't have an SPS. Well, I got an SPS today and now when doing a 4th gear pull, I get what feels like a misfire. I haven't hooked up VCDS...
I just did somee logs today and it seems that the turbo is keeping up with what the ECU is requesting, so I don't think I have a leak, but the ECU doesn't seem to be requesting the right amount by what I've been reading.
Here is a 4th gear pull, requested vs actual. What do you think?

I remember looking at this stuff back when i first bought my 2008 GTI, but never got a kit.
THis seems to be the most complete, OEM-feeling kit, unless something new is out:

It says it doesn't do voice dialing on the iPhone, but it's basing it on...
Here are some pictures. The surface was a little concave but you can't see it in the pictures.
The cam lobe looked perfectly smooth.
I was expecting a lot worse for 73,000. I meant to change it sooner but always thought it was harder than it was. Took about 30 mins to replace.
I took my car in Wednesday morning to have a TSB performed (replace intake manifold flap motor or whatever it is).
Wednesday I was told it would be done that day if the part was in. I called back Wednesday evening and they said it would be Thursday afternoon because they got busy. So I called...
It recently flew off of my GTI after exiting one of those car washes with the "wind tunnel" dryer thing on it. Last time I use one of those, even for a quick dusting off.
Looked like it came from around the area where the wipers are, but I couldn't really see if anything was missing from...
