Hey everyone, I'm a new member on the forums, but have had the tdi for a year now and have been reading a bunch of your posts since getting the car. Thanks for all the help you have given me. I do lots of driving (32,000) in the past year, so this car has been a great saver for me. But, I have had enough of the poor acceleration.
So, today I went to HS Tuning in Cleveland, OH and got the APR Stage 1 tune done. I gotta say, wow! What a difference! The car runs like a beauty. They should have done this from factory. It drives just like a stock car, but when you push the pedal, it really responds. I hated it when I was on the highway, and I was hesitant to try and pass someone in tighter situations, but now it's no issue. I've gotta recommend this to anyone who uses the car as a daily driver. The only issue I've had so far is a random kind of clunk sound when going from 3rd to 4th at full throttle. I tried it again when I had the opportunity and it didn't occur a 2nd time. I'll keep an eye out for it, but I'm guessing it was just a fluke and there is some more adaptation that has to happen.
Anyways, glad to finally be a member!
