Not for me but trying to help a friend , his T5.1 2012 has DLRs installed and wired but they don't work . Anyone have some ideas where there maybe a relay as I have tried all the fuses even ran my launch diagnostics but could not find any way of activating them , it did show the left and right one but...

Anyone know if I can change the timeout for the radio in our T5.1 , my 2004 T5 seems to stay on for as long as I like until the key is removed but our 2012 model turns off after about 6 minutes or so , really annoying if I,m wanting to listen to music while parked . I have a Launch X-431 ProS V Professional...

Hi all,

just saw some interesting information here about the launch control that could be of interest. My car runs the Garrett Powermax Stage 1 turbo on E85 and has been custom tuned by Gallano in Sydney. I also did the throttle sensitivity mod and the haldex increased traction mod via...

All Welcome! We also need some cars to put on display if you are interested.

Hi all,

Have any of you tried launch control? Of course you have me too
anyway, I am pretty sure that standard launch control will only rev to 2000 to 2500 rpm would you agree?

I installed a haldex controller today & as I don't drive the car that often I wan...

The VW Golf Mk8 launch in Australia has been delayed due to COVID-19 and temporary factory shutdowns, with the introduction now to be early 2021. As a result it will likely arrive with an almost full model range, hatches and waggons.
This includes the MK8 GTI, however the Golf R is not due until...

Ok so we have a MY 18.5 7sp 2.0 tsi Passat alltrack, right before they stoped making the diesels.

It has launch control as per most dsgs.

Issue I have, is that when you use launch control, the car takes of fine, like a bat out of hell, then grabs second and the gearbox...

Curious to find out if mine is the same as others.

When testing launch control, the first stage will hit about 2k revs and hold the revs Thier and I have noticed on the performance gauge that boost is sitting around 10psi.

When I push the accelerator a bit further it will...

An interesting article appeared VW completes launch of new Crafter commercial van range - SAE International which begs the question what happened to the Australian launch? Or will VW Australia start selling the new Crafter after they sell the very last old Crafter?

Looking at a Kodiaq for the wife to haul the kids around in. Im not sure if im better off pulling the trigger now on a launch edition or wait and see if there is a RS version ( same engine as octavia RS?) down the track. Option C could also be a 17 plate early next year at a discounted rate. Anyone...

Seat returns to NZ

They'll initially sell the all new Ateca SUV and the Leon Cupra 5dr hatch at launch, with other models to follow.

Let's hope they do the same for Australia too! Fingers crossed!!

To celebrate the launch of our DashSketch connected vehicle software for iOS, HLS is hosting a VAG community BBQ at our office in Fyshwick on Saturday 7th May, and we'd love you all to come along.

We'll have some product giveaways (free app download codes and OBD2 Bluetooth adapters), a...

2016 Volkswagen Passat spied in Sydney ahead of Australian launch

Is launch control available on the mk7 golf range? And if so how do I do it? Will it affect my warranty? I am getting a TDI Highline so can the diesels do it at all?

Just wanted to start a thread for any DSG owners out there who wish to vent their likes/dislikes/frustration

I have ordered a GTI with DSG and was wondering what the DSG community thought of it.
Would you buy another one ?

I've heard comments that it is jerky at...
