    OK, but doesn't explain the missing contacts for pos 44 in fuse box! Anyways over it. Ordered myself a Colour CCD Reversing camera to go with the AVIC-F900BT. Replaces one of the license plate lights.

      Maybe, being a TDI, and not being fitted as standard with fog lights, the fuse box just isn't wired for fog lights...
      I found this when I wanted to fit door lights to my GTI... Even though overseas models have it, mine just wasn't wired for it.

          • Fiddled with the pins on the OBD connector on flash cable to make connection more secure and then flashed to the power map.

            • Nothing. It's at the dealers getting the gerbox fixed... Again.

              Haven't seen it for two weeks!

                Just kept the stock air feed and am in the process of finishing up a heat shield that will integrate the intake and the secondary air pump... For now, I just have the stock air feed pointed at the filter.

                Haven't noticed any ill affects with regards to engine running etc (seems throttle response is improved a little) but I said the same thing about the atmospheric bov and that ended up causing no end of problems after a couple of few weeks I'll leave it on for now and report back.

                Am hopefully going to get it on a dyno next week to see how many kW's it's putting out after the tune and get a feed back on A/F ratios

                    How much and where from? I was thinking of selling my H&R/Bistein Combo for KW V1's, need to go a little lower now :p

                    • Mine are getting installed next week... Guys at DPM Performance.co.uk are great to deal with if you are ordering a set, but you will have a 5-6 week wait from date of order

                      Btw, KW make a GTI-specific set of coilovers which have modified FSB locations to stop clashing with the driveshaft, just make sure you order the correct set

                      P.s. my glossy pillars arrived today and will be going on tonight!!

                          • I'm selling my other car soon, and part of the deal to myself was to spend a little bit of cash on my GTI, to stop the thoughts of selling it to upgrade. I am trying to decide what best to do. I only want to use around $1000, maybe $1500 maximum. I am thinking tune and springs/shocks? Was going to get some wheels but I would only end up cheaping out on tyres to get them into my budget

                            • Coilovers + chip.

                              Giac and KW would likely blow your budget, If I go ahead with KW, you can have my AP's, they will only have about 10,000 k's on them, likely only worth $400...

                                I may take you up on that offer if/when it happens!
                                What is the ride quality like with the AP's? EDIT: just found your review
