Hi Guys, Drove to RI for work this morning in my wife's Q5. CEL came on. Car's running fine, it came on once before and I cleared it with a USB Vag cable, but I think I need the hex can to actually read the code. Anyone around the Providence/Warwick area that can help this afternoon? I will...

Did a scan for another issue and pulled 01314. On occasion I get an ABS and brake light on the dash, it's rare and usually if I take a hard turn or get a jolt to the right wheel. I assume it's just a loose connection. I checked and didn't see anything loose. Anyone had this code before...

When turning the wheel slightly right or left I get a clicking in the underside of the car. It's extremely bad in the cold weather, but diminishes when the car warms. The warmer weather today was enough to keep it toned down. Got under the car and it sounds to be coming from a box behind the...

Text from a friend of mine looking to sell his wife's GTI. Pics available upon request, but car is in great shape. She's loved that car, the way most of here love our cars. I am the original owner of the vehicle which was leased on 2/21/2008. At the end of the 36 month lease, I bought the...

I was looking into getting my wheels refinished. 18" stock huff's. Lots of curb rash. Got a quote for about $400 for all 4. I'm out the car for about 2 days, but I'm thinking about putting snows on anyway. I noticed ECS has a set of 4 Alzor wheels, which is their version of the huff for...

Never had snows before, but thinking it might time to get some. Moved further north and closer to the snow line. TPMS for the winter setup would add an extra $225. Anyone run a winter setup without them and if so, I'm assuming there is a way to turn off sensors via VAGCOM? Thanks.

I really hoped they would keep manufacturing the car in Germany. http://www.cnbc.com/id/100601124/page/6

Some asshat opened their door into mine. Brought it into the shop, when they were putting the interior door panel back on, they used the wrong screw barely noticeable. Shop said he'd fix it, but didn't want to repaint, over a repaint. Worried about the quality. He's a legit guy. Family...

There seem to be a good number of people on the forum working and going to school. I just enrolled to finish my degree and wanted some input. I originally registered for 12 credits. 12 credits cost the same as 16 so I threw in another 4 to get my money's worth. I'm in for a full 16 now...

09 TSI with 52,xxx on it. Driving back from Raleigh NC to NYC today. Made it to within a few miles from home and I start getting what feel like misfires. 3 of the 4 coil packs were changed within the last 2 months and are the latest revision. Scanned the car when I got home and got this. I...
