If the problem dissapears when flashed to stock, does this mean the problem is in the software or is the problem being caused by the effect of the software? An underlying engine problem may not show up under standard performance parameters, but may well do under highly tuned conditions.

....Exactly! And the more you push the performance envelope, the more the liklihood of stress and problems. It's not brain surgery.

whilst i fully agree with that, as i posted previously, he wasnt standard. he was fully fledged stage 2+ Bluefin. the only change was a software swap to REVO stage 2+. So it may not have showed up under bluefin, but revo obviously ppushed it straight past its limit (if there is a hardware fault that is)

I still fail to see what the point is of wringing every last bhp and torque out of the poor thing.
Is it all about waving the old chap around rather than how it performs for you? Seems that way. :confused:

im with you on that. i was after wringing it all out of my last car, but i don't plan to do it to this one. i want more power obviously, but i dont want it at the expense of reliability.
there seems to be stage 2+ tuned k04 TFSI issues coming out in the woodwork on a regular basis now especially now that lots of guys have an it for extended periods of time.
vRS Carl:
These issues on both K03 & K04 Stage 2+ have nothing to do with REVO software though. Everyone is just getting boost leaks :evilgrin:

oh of course :grin:
