I've been using someone else's scan tool,wouldnt mine having my own. Is there a decent one I can get local for around $200-$250? Purchased a vw/audi scanner on trademe after waiting a week they said they don't have any:(

Cup holder wouldnt hold cups without the bottle opener lol,I seen them online doing my mk5 searches for about 30 bucks if your a vw head and want to open your beer with one

Couple of vw logos I've noticed since owning it Low beam headlights bottle opener in the cup holder

Got the steering wheel controls to work with the head unit And the sub fits perfectly between the seat rails

Factory head unit only had am/fm cd. All my music is pretty much on my phone so added a 9"android auto head unit with a pioneer under seat sub and reverse camera. Need to download a better screen disply then took it for a evening hoon around some b roads

Sort of have to do a track day now But first, Been getting fluids oils filters coolant thermostat for full service and when I do the intercooler upgrade I'll do a inlet carbon clean. Then can book in for a tune

Brought a set of gti rims with near new ar1 semi slicks for cheap. Looks like guy rolled his gti at a track day:/ https://www.trademe.co.nz/3439836449 Should help with fwd traction after tune. Thinking will paint the spare set of rims a darker silver/grey see how they look against the graphite blue colour of the car

19th hole?

I know fuck all about golf's in general. Just know the mk5 is not bad hot hatch at price point atm. Have a mate that's a vw/audi foamer thou.

Not a fan of the mk3 golf

Ecotec just kicked out yo

Tempted by these light weight wheels but it will need more low to look rite and new tyres so will go over my budget. And will lose a bit of ride quality I get from 45 profile tyres hmmmm. https://www.trademe.co.nz/3431128130

Took in for wof today Clean sheet pass. Dash is telling me it due for service in 7 days Will order engine and dsg oil and filters and get onto it.

It's included in price of tune so can live with it till then

After driving it enthusiastically its back. Scanned it cat fault,delete fault Couple hoons shes back. Euro life Only way to get rid of this code forever is for tuner to send it too blackhole!

Fan of tidy bum

Yeah I've been told can tune dsg to put more pressure on the clutch packs aswell to handle extra torque from engine tune

Alot of mk5 interiors seem to suffer from saggy roof lining and door cards. This one has none of those issues Conditioned the leather seats and gave interior bit of a clean,actually not a bad place to be. Heaps of adjustment in steering wheel and seat to get good driving position aswell Added some alloy paddle shifts because $40 Ferrari mod

Ko4 equipped perelli gtis seam to make good power but they were 6k+ out of my budget

Has a nice burble on upshifts and doses through filter when you lift off the gas which I'm happy with just want a stock looking car that surprises a few people Tuner I spoke to said stock rear section of exhaust is fine for what I want. Maybe later I'll do k04 conversion

First day off work so decided to do de cat Had to 2 cats first one straight of the turbo with restrictive bend. All sorted now Engine light came on after install,cleared it and hasn't came back Still using both factory rear mufflers so it's not loud just bit deeper note seem to boost bit harder now too.

Then go pick up s3 intercooler from my mates. He reckon good bolt in upgrade,stock gti intercooler is thinner and plastic. S3 intercooler is thicker and alloy

I ordered some hot up parts so when I got it back to aucks could get straight into it Next thing is to install cat delete down pipe

First mish was a wash clay bar and polish. It turn out nice and shiny
