What did you do to your MkVI-A6 today?

[calimustang]

You believe a Malone tune fried your sensor or another tuner did?

Other tuner.

 

[97B4TDi]

Other tuner.

Frusterating. Good TDI Tuners are hard enough to come by; the few good ones out there can do without other tuners muddying the water.

 

[calimustang]

yep Malone is the best, no questions. they never disappoint me. they went above and beyond with my 2015 Passat on the ecu shipping to them and back overnight. truly amazing and very expensive. ecu was stuck on the other tuner as their flashzilla shattered somehow. after I got the ECU back, the car ran flawlessly and sounded very healthy and strong and scoots hard! far better fuel economy.

I'll probably get a spare ECU and have the security removed. That way it can be used in any car. Only issue is I'm keyless. So it working without a chip. Could I start it with only the button and no key nearby?

SWEET! I tried the GT350 Mustang and got him good with my ST3 JSW. until 120 I had to let go as tires was rated at 120. now I have better tires, went 125 effortlessly but scary FAST. She had a ton more power to go above 125.

Late to the party here but I just want to verify.

Are you saying you beat a Gt350 with a CR170 Wagen??

These are fast when modded. I've beat a few vehicles up to 120. Stg4 is fast.

 

[DivineChaos]

ohhhh paddles! does it work? if so, is it easy to do? I do have VCDS myself.

Yeah it's easy. Just have to activate it. Could even put a heated treg one on with paddles and cruise.

 

[Drclaw]

Winter wheels on. Brake fluid change. Wash and TW ice and shine

yep it's already installed. I posted a picture of it earlier this month.

yup, I have it on video.

 

[97B4TDi]

Washed it and on my way home the battery light came on… :/

ehh how old is the battery? what part number is it on the battery that's if its the VW brand.

 

[97B4TDi]

I hooked up VCDS and found out my supply voltage was 11.63V so I think my alternator is the culprit.

 

[calimustang]

yep. just linked you on FB.

 

[DivineChaos]

yup, I have it on video.

To be fair. You coming up on him at 155 then flooring it before the gt is even ready. Not really beating him. He tromps on it well after your way ahead him.

actually what happened was he gave me the look to go for it so I did........ it's on him. I had to let go at 120 mph due to 120 mph rated tires. mines DSG, his is 6MT. its a not a GT, its a GT350.

I was looking at the camera speed. Kph. I didn't realize he gave a nod. Doesn't sound like he shifted down. Yeah, I've oversped my tires lots. They wear on the insides. Haven't topped out since the new turbo. (GT was just meaning the mustang). I've pulled on a newer charger or challenger. (It was dark, newer V8 Dodge) 40mph roll due to traction. I had em till 80.

 

[JELLOWSUBMARINE]

forgot to add, I had my car loaded with 5% Xpel XR Plus ceramic tints all around but 50% on the windshield. wow! from old LLumar 5% tints to Xpel... it is truly immense of differences.

Isn't Lumar ceramic? What kind of difference?

 

[DivineChaos]

Well I found out where my coolant leak is.. thermostat. I was going to change it this spring. Ugh.edit. not the thermostat. Edit: It's on the trans side of the block, not the front. The heck is that part called?umm.

The LLumar I had wasn't ceramic. different guy and never will use him again. this tint guy, is far better and same guy who did the delete on my JSW plus CR170 turbo install and CP3. the tint difference? massive. hardly felt any heat from the sun (98% block the sun and heat)

I'm pretty excited about it. I had an mk7 gti before this and really miss having flappy paddles.

I rarely use mine. But it's nice when you want to. And it looks fancy. Just gotta get some gdi logos

 

[calimustang]

I love my Tiguan steering wheel with paddles.

Did you ever feel clumsy with the paddles when I was steering with my knee then my knee accidentally touches the paddle… ended up downshifting lol.(old habits die hard that had no paddles)

I had the exact same thing with our old 2017 Ford Explorer XLT eco boost 2.3….

I don't think I've ever done that.
