    Need my Q7 amp unlocked in DEN/SPGS area

    Well, all I have is the ross-tech unit, which at least should be able to plug in and read. check with Uwe at ross-tech.com or check with some of the forum members around here or over at Audizone.

    Looking at a Q5. What should I know?

    Oilhammer I’m looking at maybe a 2014 A7. I live in WY so I plan to remove some troublesome bits…. Why 2015? It appears to be just before all of the sensors and assisted this and that. i think Kerma is up in the mountains of Colorado. What should I look for when shopping or just avoid them...

    A4 B7 2.5 TDI issue @1500 rpm chocking White smoke from exhaust and strong smell of diesel

    At least in the States our Passat never got the 2.5. Lots of cool stuff we never got over here… I do hate when a car complains loudly but won’t tell you what’s going on. :-)

    A4 B7 2.5 TDI issue @1500 rpm chocking White smoke from exhaust and strong smell of diesel

    So you know, this is a VW TDI forum, not an Audi A4 forum, so you posted in the wrong place. All of us here deal with the 1.9-2.0 VW diesel engines. However, congrats on figuring out your car’s problem!

    Diesel Land: TDI Guru in Colorado

    It’s nice and relatively quiet up here. But the rain…. The ground is so saturated with water that basements are flooding. My house is okay, thankfully. Coolest rainiest year ever methinks.

    BEW, Which Turbo (VNT17, Hybrid, or GT) and Clutch (Daily or Endurance, Dual Mass?)

    That may be true, but she runs perfectly and returns 47 on the highway at 80mph, limits boost right, pulls better from idle than any tune I’ve had, and even at WOT blows very little smoke. You probably can do a lot better and you probably are a better tuner, but trashing a vendor who’s provided...

    BEW, Which Turbo (VNT17, Hybrid, or GT) and Clutch (Daily or Endurance, Dual Mass?)

    In my ALH I went with the gtd1752vrk and a custom version of malone stage 5 limited to 28psi. I have stock-like turbo response around town and more than enough passing power in 6th gear on the highway.

    Diesel Land: TDI Guru in Colorado

    Well cool! Getting around Denver and up to FC these days is no fun. I lived in Boulder back in the mid 80s to 90s, and am now back after an 18 year hiatus, in Cheyenne now. It changed SO much,SO cfowded now. Yeeesh. BTW I have a vagcom and the software if you ever need it….

    Diesel Land: TDI Guru in Colorado

    Hmmm. Brandon didn’t charge me anywhere close to $2k for a timing belt on my ALH. Like, half that maybe? Anyway hope it works out!

    What did you do to your MKIV today?

    Regulations, the inability to build new refineries, restrictions in drilling. Governments can and do cause huge effects on the price. But I digress. Talk to an oil industry employee (not “consultant”) or lawyer, like my brother-in-law. But…changing the topic… i’ve always wondered if our...

    ALH 01m to Dq250 DSG Swap Completed!

    I just have to echo what others have said here: this is SO cool. I love this kind of trail blazing. You’ve done all of the hard work and documented it for others here. Doesn’t get any better than this.

    What did you do to your MKIV today?

    Yeah been there, done that too. Like a rite of passage, it’s not what you’re going to forget but when and how bad. I’ve also left off the oil fill cap too. That’s a fun one….

    What did you do to your MKIV today?

    Ah, thanks. Not paired with special actives but oranges though I’m betting not that big of a difference. I do think I will make this upgrade at some point in the future.

    Cool thanks for letting me know! I’ve done some searches - could you post the link? Can’t seem to find your post.

    What did you do to your MKIV today?

    The stock springs seem just a bit sloppy to me, not as controlled as they should be. And she crashes over the rough roads here in Cheyenne. actually I just looked them up and Neuspeed is not only still in business but they still are selling their softsport springs for the mk4. 1/2” lowered...

    What did you do to your MKIV today?

    Hey folks for those who have special actives, what springs did you pair them with? I’m using new stock springs and I don’t think it’s a good combination but I don’t want to lower the car…
