Thank god we got that sorted out Tim :)

Anyway the floret (I assume it's floret) looks superb. Hope the rain stops so you can get some nice pics up. I'm down on the south coast and it's been peeing down here for 2 days, not great timing my wife's trying to get some clothes dry to pack for holiday!!

One week of ownership!

Loving the diesel!

Few Negatives: Audio system bit weak, quiets down whenever I turn up volume to max..Possible to change speakers?

Miss the kick of my 2.0TFSI..DTUK box any good? No engine problems after?

Other than that all Good!! Loving the MPG obviously lol

Slap a dtuk box on it, did same with mine (same engine as yours) and it feels like a totally different car, defo has a good kick to it and ive had zero issues since its been on (approx 2mths to date)

Just playing with the different setups to find my prefered one.

What colour is that wrap?

Sounds good! Which one did you get? Yes setups will be fun to play with.. Not a wrap mate, just ice silver

I've got a DTUK CRD2 box on my A4 2.0TDIe, totally transformed it. Been on for the best part of three years without a single issue.

Definitely get it done!

Haha Gonna try the leaving home headlight trick now and see!

Be interested to see how that turns out as I have never coded CH/LH without a light sensor but I remember there was a post a while back about "manual" operation so it is kinda possible... I think...

Went the extra mile for you and included the heat shrink connectors and put the loom together so all you need to do is use the extra repair wire included and get piggy backin' from the light for the cig lighter.

Don't forget to heat up the connectors like I have done as it keeps the wire more secure in the connector.

Out in the post tonight.
