The engine ecu is mounted beside the battery/air filter in the mk6 jetta tdi, as long as you're not mounting the ecu directly on the engine itself its not a problem.

I keep my tdis long term, so I will post my issues with soldering if there's any. Nothing to hide, if I start having issues I will remove the wiring again and use butt connectors. 🤣🤣 BTW the engine harness is brand new, the only changes that you need to make is to the chassis harness that sits...

This should put the debate to rest. This publication by xentry/Daimler/Mercedes.. Check it out!! By the way cummins sells the repair sensor pigtails with the solder connectors already in the repair kit.. https://photos.app.goo.gl/pFtF6NCzZBvk8C2a9

If a soldered wire can last under a hood of a class 8 semi truck which hauls across the ice roads of Canada, I am sure a soldered wire will do just fine under a cars hood, a poor solder is worse then a good crimp, but a good solder is better then a good crimp. Just an opinion.

You might be correct, but I been using crimp connectors and solder over 25 years now, I am yet to see one of my soldered connections go bad, can't say the same for a crimp. I had option to use either crimp or solder, but I chose soldering since it's the one I trust more. Yes, the wire is more...

I bought this CC with a blown dsg,, Been a life long TDIer, I thought about putting a used dsg in the cc and keep the 2.0t gasser, then I opened up the fuel cap and it said "91 premium" that's the time I dropped the 2.0t idea, the gasser had to go lol. https://photos.app.goo.gl/hmheG4DULW6zqHNJ9

The NMS Passat and the CC are two very different animals. The NMS is not a real Passat. The ckra is likely doable with just as much work as the cjaa, I am not a fan of CKRA engine, Just went thru my first tank with 70/30 hwy/city driving and the CC is sitting at 45.2 mpgs US. And this is without...

Not worth it, the body harness is 1 piece you will need to basically strip the whole car to a shell to do that. All you need to do is wire in a reverse switch and clutch position sensor. Not hard at all and you can do a nice clean job with a soldering iron and tesa tape. Good luck

The swap is 100 percent successful, I was able to clear the Christmas tree on the dash. 🤣 https://photos.app.goo.gl/AaMycwh5iLtF59vUA Thursday,24,August,2023,16:00:45:00009 VIN: WVWBN7AN9DE505122 License Plate: Mileage: 217140km-134924mi Repair Order: Chassis Type: AN-VW46 (7N0) Scan: 01 03...

Closest thing to a "real Passat" sold here in North America was the CC. I am in the last stages of a cjaa/6 speed manual swap into a CC. The build quality is way nicer in the CC then the nms Passat.

The tcm for the dsg is located inside the dsg itself, you will be left with a round plug which you can simple tape and tuck away underneath the wiring. You can also use wires from that plug to power up your reverse switch. Pretty straight forward once you're at it. The YouTube vedio has it...

wiring was the main time killer, took me a week to sort out the wiring. I own a semi truck and trailer repair buisness, found a slow week to fiddle with the wiring. All done properly, soldering the wires with shrink tubes etc. Wrapping the wires like factory would do with tesa tape. The rest of...

I think he mentioned having complete donor car. That means he also has the Manual engine ecu. Coding for manual from auto is easy. No problems there, just need to delete the auto trans from the can gateway list, code the cluster from auto to manual. Abs coding can be tricky but not a big deal...

Both your cars are Tdis? If they are both tdis then it's doable without much trouble. There is alot of labour involved you have to drop the subframe, exhaust, heat shields etc to get to the shifter assy. There is a YouTube vedio where someone converted audi A3 Dsg to stick. It's a great...

Thanks!! Will post a better vedio once she's 100 percent done and all detailed. Just got the A/C recharged today and it's working great. Love the comfort of this long wheel based car compared to my wifes Jetta and my beater golf. The CC is a boat compared to them.

Took a diesel engine and 6 speed manual Transmission out of a wrecked 2014 vw jetta and planted it into a German made 2014 vw CC gasser with an auto. The swap is 90 percent done and car hauls with 6 speed stick... All that while returning 50 mpgs... 🤣🤣🤣 Credit goes to vwztips for his...

The tig got sold before I got to it,, but picked up a crashed 2014 jetta tdi 6 speed stick with 50k miles.. The hunt for the tig continues..

Hi all, i have 2006 mk5 jetta tdi with a dsg trans which I owned since new and did all the maintenance by myself, the car now is falling apart but the powertrain is still great. I am able to get my hands on a 2011 vw Tiguan fwd which has blown engine and 6 speed manual trans,,. My only...

So replaced all 9 solenoids by removing the front end. Still same issue got forward gears and no reverse. Anything else i can try before pulling the trans?
