I have an Edition30 GTI and enjoy modding, but I just didn'#039t want the noises and hassle associated with swapping out for an aftermarket one (including fuel trims and the fact the EA113 is an ugly ass engine which needs the nice OEM cover over it) - it only really works well on naturally aspirated

There'#039s a chart somewhere here with all the steering wheel control modules and what functions they support. My advice is to get one of those ebay/aliexpress modules ending with CH and the latest gen cruise control and wiper stalk. Cruise control ends with G, no idea about the wiper.
Fit all at once but make sure you save the old eprom data from the cluster along with th

Always feels good when another enthusiast gives you a thumbs-up.
I often(-ish) drive past Blandford. That A354 to and from Salisbury is a good fast road when traffic conditions allow.

Very interesting thread and thanks for posting the finished result!
I have always disliked the Mk5 GTI instruments because they are so difficult to read!! Obviously the rev counter is easy to read and I can hear the revs anyway. My solution to the speedo is to have a Road Angel with digital display in line-of-sight centrally at the base of the windscreen. The OEM speedo

'quattro' GTi Possible?
Last Poster: Marticus in Mk5 General Area on June 23, 2025, 08:23:55 am
Hi all,
As I'#039ve been on the lookout for a replacement engine, an A3 8p has come into my local breakers with a BWA engine, but it'#039s also quattro.
Doing a 4wd conversion is something that'#039s been sitting in the back of my mind for a while, so I'#039m wondering if it worth grabbing some of the other components at the same time.
Obviously they'#039re the sa

I Hope this helps you guys out if you want to mount Z18 Brembo calipers on to your VDubs😎❤️ Wheel choice is entirely yours as long you keep your ET offset in mind😉 The only thing you can upgrade is your brake master cylinder from 22 or 23mm to a 25mm Audi one. It is not necessary but your brake Pedal travel is less 👍🏻 Have fun on “schraubing” on to your rides

To me I’d think that’ll clean up just fine but wanted some guidance.
You clearly ain'#039t been under many jap ca

Hello, so I have had an unusual engine failure at 193,000 miles....  So now I'm engine shopping, for a BWA, anything under 100,000 be nice. Was curious if anyone here has anything or any leads, thank you!
