Gold/black, one owner (smoker). My work vehicle - not perfect, but nice. Euro hids with cockpit adjust. Aspherical mirrors, mudflaps, winter mats since new, euro cluster with FIS, Blitz adaptor for XM, wired for V1, roof rack cross bars, Rocketchip stage 1 (probably the 5th or 6th BEW done by...

AoA is committed to put a TDI as an option in every car coming over eventually. They will begin with the A4 and Q7. After that, look for the A3 and A6, then the TT, A5 and R8. Then just maybe the A8...

I watched the video a long time ago - now that I have a PD and its time to do the filter, what is different? Tips/tricks?

I had one of the earliest RC1 upgrades in late 04 for my PD (BEW) Jetta wagon with tiptronic. It has been a joy. I don't harass the car but it has plenty of spunk and consistent 41 mpg on the highway, 37-39 in town. Jeff was a joy to work with. Sent him my ECU and had it back w/in 3 days.

I have an MFA sport cluster in my 04 TDI wagon with an intermittent open in the instrument lights. Any recommendations to finding someone to TS/R? It also still reads in kmph (100kmph straight up) and was wondering who did recoding and what recommendations there were concerning guage faces. My...

My 04 TDI wagon is going on a dolly for trips. I'm looking at modifying the rear fog position to add a dual element bulb for seperate light wiring. I don't want to add diodes to the existing lamps as the voltage drop across the diode will reduce lamp output. Has anyone done this before? Any...

I went with RC stage one for my PD/tip after Upsolute told me every month for 8 months 'just a few more weeks'. I'm exceedingly happy with it.

Either day is good for me. Hopefully I'll have the power seats in by then. Finally got RC stage 1 done...

No more smoke than before, if anything, less. Sent original ecu. Jeff will restore original software if you need it, or put your stage back on for free if the dealer over-writes the code on a factory upgrade. My dealer actually gives out Upsolute cards for our local rep, so I don't have to sweat...

Received and installed today. Much stronger across the entire range. No issues with the Tiptronic. Well worth the money!

Removing the ECU - Remove your wipers and the wiper cover. ECU is in the center, with 2 connectors. Disconnect the connectors by sliding the connector lock tabs outward (to the left and to the right for each). There is a lock tab on the passenger side - move that outward and slide the ecu...

Shipped my ecu out this morning, as I'm flying to Dallas this week. I'll happily report butt dyno figures when I install it next Sunday evening (04 Jetta Wagon, tiptronic). Jeff's been a pleasure to deal with, explaining everything in detail.

My 04 Wagon (tiptronic) gets stage 1 next week... Can't wait.

Did you do the 'reset to factory defaults' on the new cluster? I had fits with my old isocom cable with sessions dropping on 312 software. Still had problems when I borrowed a key-usb and used the 409 software until I did the reset. Then it adapted just fine...

I got mine from Dan a few months back and they are awesome!

It appears my euro MFA cluster has an intermittent open in the backlighting - has anyone fussed with these after a period of time the entire circuit goes out. Some gentle persuasion and it comes back - for a while...

Although both my USA and Euro sport cluster faces go to 260 km/hr, they are not the same across the range. My euro cluster has 100 km/hr straight up at 12:00. The same 12:00 position on my NA cluster corresponds to 130 km/hr. I don't believe this is changeable via Vagcom. I'm thinking my only...

My NA face has material that will overlay the high pixel center area of the euro cluster. It will have to be cut away by using the euro face as a template.

I'm getting ready to swap gauge faces from my NA to euro cluster. I noticed it looks like I'll have to exacto the center section. Any tips? Also - any source for quality aftermarket/original faces if I screw this up?

Since I haven't swapped the faces yet, I haven't touched a needle. Likely is a weak stepper motor. Luckily I'm still handy with soldering iron...
