Thanks for information! It looks like the ESP is the key to get DSG to work, I have that vwvortex topic and looks like all have ESP. I dont have it on my ABS and for some reason it dont want to work over 60kmh with ABS fuse on. I try some recode things today but I have a feeling that I need to...

are you sure you have mk20? because I have not found mk20 with esp on 2002 models, only mk60. I have now found mk20 esp models either, I am just asking to make sure you have mk20 box :) Since it looks like I have to upgrade my mk20 to mk60 esp model for DSG to work proper. I have tried...

Shush you vile temptress! :tearsofjoy:

Car ran for few secs with DSG and horrible grinding noise. I think its the middle metal sheet between gearbox and engine and I really really hope it is not hard to fix and I have a clue where it came from, possibly the rear small cover is bend inwards and makes contact to flywheel. Positive was...

leaking valve stems if this occurs after car has been shutdown for a moment, then start and buff of smoke comes for while. Worst case leaking head gasket. Totally white smoke without smell is usually coolant. With smell oil burning but you can really smell it cus it smells bad. But I think its...

outer tie rod was doing this to me. was busted. looked ok when tried to shake but higher speed horrible wobble. I had all the same things you say. I would suggest to renew all tie rods, lower joint etc. at same time and use Meyle HD parts. dont cost much and you will be happy years to come. Also...

easy carbon cleaning: spray water to intake with lots of rev, car will bang etc but I quarantee all the **** in engine will get loose and destroy cat if you have one :D

I started to rip the DSG apart and fix the leak issue.good but the 2nd lock ring I cannot get off so I had to order special pliers and I get them tomorrow. After I I can rip the DSG in 2 halves, check the leak and fix it and hopefully it can be fixed. Also my roofliner was hanging so I took the...

Thank you Hydro s3 :) Only good thing about winter is that you can powerslide everywhere :D With ignitron haldex control the car is quite nice when 50/50 power delivery. On drives I have it on OEM mode but still it tries to push rear to side :) I bought this yesterday 034 big port intake...

Please dont say about my AFR meter place, its horrible and is now moving to dual pod where boost meter is. Happy new year all!

Longer drive, sorry for music etc :D and camera on head not optimal

First drive and boost pipe BLOW cus it was loose and well the WG problem was still there.

Perhaps not prettiest S3 out there but next summer I polish and paint etc. Car is now in "winter" mood also. Dont like the rear and the sideview rear is bit too low vs front.

Car is now running and under tuning! Lots have happened and I didnt post here lot but I have a facebook link where is tons of pics, info etc. Bill from badger5 helped me A LOT and I cant ever thank him enough for not losing nerves with my endless questions! Alltho my understanding of english...

I tested ALS lot with old engine and didnt see terrible EGT temps, tho I didnt use but 1bar settings but I must warn too like Tuffty, the longevity of turbo, engine etc. is reduced or in worst case overused and wrongly done destroys. Still Ignitron has been greatest purchase and ECU ever I have...

I scored DQ250 from 2011 Golf R VERY VERY VERY cheap :D lets say approx 1/20th of price of working box :D Fully working, leaks oil between seals(driven to rock, easy fix) when running. 90 000km driven. Came with bewel box too. Its basically brand new :) I use Ignitron to control it and I have...

I decided to run E85 with engine since I am soon in city where E85 is available. We shall see what kind of figures we can push out :) Most likely, I will drop some hp in favor for reliability and as daily driver, I dont need full power nonstop but more torque on low to mid is best :) Going to...
