Re: Replace windscreen scuttle panel

I am actually trying to install 5f gateway, driver side is more than sufficient. The reason I want to remove passenger side as i might as well replace both side so it will be both new and keep the existing one as spare

I think you will need foam support, bumper bracket, and plastic wheel liner for front bumper

Re: Faded pink coolant after coolant flush

I let the thermostat opened to make sure old coolant got drained. Coolant is still faded pink. No sign of rust. By the way, I did leak test once and everything is fine.

Faded pink coolant after coolant flush

Just made a coolant flush today using G13 40/60 dilution ratio. It was clear a pink when I ran engine at idle for 20 minutes or so after I finished the process; however when I took out for a proper drive, the colour in expansion changed from clear pink to faded pink (colour of aged coolant). I'm won...

Re: Fog/dust/scratched headlight

personally, i think the clear coat is peeling. The only solution, if it's inside, is to remove the lens out and buff with polisher and reseal the headlight.

Currently I have whining noise. I believe this is from oil cooler ( HEL kit). What I am curious is whining noise disappear despite rpm being at constant 2000 rpm. Anyone knows why?

Kufatec DRL adaptor. Help needed!

Recently I purchased a kit from Kufatec. According to instruction, I am told to swap pin A7 <> A10 and A8 <> C50 at CECM. A7 <> A10 went well but I have trouble fitting A8 into C50 slot as the splice that used to go to A8 is a larger than C50 slot. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Re: Ventilation flap whining?

Engine didn't need to be started. At on position, if the climate control is switched on, there will be whining sound for 2-3 seconds. Like I said, using 2010 style climatronic panel, the problem went away

Re: 2.0 gt TSI modified, vs R stock?

I would take facelift Scirocco 2.0 TSI because with stage 1, you can go up to 300hp. With turbo change, IS38 bolt-on, it will be close to 400hp. Carbon built up issue is resolved in 3rd Gen EA888 The R engine isnt that capable or? It's the EA133 or whatever its called? ea113 is capable of doing 400...
