So following my problem here -----> http://vwclub.co.za/forum/viewtopic.php ... start=1625

Don't know if i'm just exaggerating it. Doubt my old vagcom will work on it to perhaps run a log.

Will need to try my bluetooth dongle.
If that doesn't work then I will need to book it in. Just don't have an extra vehicle. Will see if they'll give me a demo to drive with.

Awesome!

Did you use it with the torque app?

Also my car has rest assist, but i've NEVER seen it work. So not even sure if it has it active?

The rest assist pops up about 20km from gateway

Unlike the time based Audi one , think this uses other sensors and movements to activate

Update : got my Intake fitted ! Sounds Awesome!!! Louder blow off and an impact on my SW I never expect , a very smooth linear torque increase , the SW never felt rough but somehow the intake has made it even more flexible

I'll take a pic this morning.. I still need to cut the pipe a little shorter because the filter pushes up against the cradle..

I think the first to 2nd is slow dv activation , makes it shunt

As in tail piece? I've read the Audi a1 chrome tip works and looks nice. Haven't priced the yet.

I would ideally like to fit twin pipes like the gti has, but that would require welding and I'm not to keen as the car is too new still

Just some opinions:

My drivers seat is squeaking when i go around turns, anyone else? (I'm not a fat guy so that's not the issue :wink: )
My average consumption is 6.5l/100km and get around 740km on a tank.
The Highline seats are going to show wear and tear very quickly!
215 tyres are noisy!

Other than that it's a magical little car and the performance albeit not what I was used to in my previous cars, is very surprising for a 1.2T!

What options etc, do your cars have?

I have:

PDC
Media Composition
Mirror Link (actually works!)
