Due to the torque limiter, a DSG tune is required. Can a local tuner do a DSG tune?
.

I don't understand why anyone would want to avoid doing the dsg tune anyways, that's the most satisfying part of the whole deal!!!

I agree, it was money well spent and if Malone is the only tuner that does the DSG, why go with anyone else?

My local tuner offers a 30-day money-back refund. He'll do both the DSG and Stage 2.0 with test drives to make sure it all works.

Another question: do local tuners somehow get a digital copy of a Malone tune and re-purpose it for themselves or is it a total home-brew?

If you have to ask that question, you should stop and think about what you're doing.

Um, yeah. Please be patient with me.

Am I the only one to be a bit skittish when it comes to hacking a $20,000 car?

I really appreciate this forum!

And, I'm reading all I can, but the "Search" function on this forum was apparently designed in 1992.

I really appreciate your comments! No sarcasm. I'm just starting to think about a Tune and my nearest Malone tuner isn't being much help.

There's a rash of emissions burglaries in my area, catalytic converters, etc.

If I were to be hit by them, can I drive the TDI until the time comes to get a tune?
