    1.8T official 0-60?

    My nephew as co driver with his stop watch measured it at 7.0 secs on our 3rd and 4th attempt. The first 2 attempts were more like test runs clocking at 7.8 and 7.5 sec. At the time it was running on standard setup.

After you have cleared the drainholes and dried the carpets take off the glove box to see the bits and bobs of the heating system and see what damage was done. I would...

    Heater/Ventilation problems **NEWBIE**

    which vagcom

    Sounds like pure coincidence to me. I would say you had a problem before you "tried" to vagcom you car. Simply plugging in a vagcom cable and doing a scan only reads faults on your ecu. The only way it would mess up your ecu would be if your laptop sent a large volt spike through the laptops usb...
