Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Went with GIAC feels quite solid. The CTS intake is awesome, sooo much extra noise. Spool up sounds great and you can really hear the diverter valve dumping the extra boost. -
Intake - does it make noise? Is it loud? You have the RS yes?[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]Matt

Yep RS. I'll try get a video so you can gauge the noise, but its not too bad. You can definitely hear the extra induction noise and the diverter valve doing its business.Originally posted by MJKooLio View PostComment

Yep. Tried to organise a dyno but my mechanic didn't have time. I know of a GTI running the same tune with a DP and it did 203kw.Originally posted by GeeMatt View Post. Tune + intake - Should be some nice kilowasps there.Comment

I had a look, and yes, those are def the ones I put in the map lights. (I have a pano roof, so my rears are festoon ones, not those ones). Odd yours has some residual current....Originally posted by jfi2ee View Post2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT

thanks for checking mate, I got word from ledperf here's a picture of what they recommended doing with the resistors - all seems fixed nowOriginally posted by GTR27 View Post

Ok another note what's with all the noises when the car unlocks/locksComment

Even with a resistor it would run the battery down.2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT

I believe it's just the fuel pump priming the line before you start the car and if you have xenons it might be the ballasts too.Originally posted by jfi2ee View PostComment

Yeah when I get in, fuel pump prime is noticeable.2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT

If there is a residual current flowing through the map lights then it surely it won't make any difference whether the bulb is LED or incandescent.Originally posted by jfi2ee View Post
The voltage is probably too low to light the filament on the incandescent, but can just support an non-resistor LED.
The interior lights or not simple on/off but attached to a fade up/down system, so maybe yours (or anyone's?) does not entirely switch off when it fades down?
It might also be a 'feature'. Failed exterior bulbs can be detected even when switched off so there must be some residual current allowed through to detect any failure.
Basically I am saying that any drain will probably be minimal and you may as well put the LEDs in having bought them, or at least check with the dealer if there is a problem.
