Sounds like i have the same dsg problems you had aswell. Only problem i have i have no codes up.
How much did it all end up costing you for the r32 rear bumper etc if you don't mind me asking.

Think r32 bumper was 150 ish (just lower half replica off eBay) 100 for smooth and paint. And exhaust was pricey cos I went all out and got cat back bcs but if you want to do it cheaper you could just do a backbox delete and get a y pipe made up at any custom exhaust place :)
Easy doable for 350 all in

Just gave the car another service tonight. Screw in the fuel filter housing had rotted away so had to drill it out and replace. Bit annoying but nothing major. Whilst waiting for oil to drain I went round everything with wire brushes and greased so I shouldn't have any issues again :)
Just ordered tonight and to be fitted at the weekend aswell as heat wrap the evoms cai
R tech twin heat shield
R tech full pcv delete
Andy at r tech development has been really helpful and honest in what I need to buy to achieve what I want to rather than selling me everything he could which is what a lot do!
Next to order Probs at end of next month is
Loba hpfp
Rs4 valve
Wellycooler/peron/s3 cooler
Bit undecided on where to go with the intercooler but it's looking like a wellycooler and just trim My crash bar down :)
Keeping an eye out for cheap s3 rear brakes aswell as the fronts have bedded in and I'm learning just how good they are and gaining more confidence in them when doing really hard braking it feels like the car is doing a 'stopie/endo' and the rear becomes really loose.
I did have new dampers and h&r 30mm springs aswell as new discs and pads front and rear to do next.
BUT my brother bought a steel grey dsg ed30 last month and is eager to get down to r tech for a stage 1 map so I'm trying to get my hardware mods done so we can go down on the same day, so it's all powaaa now :)
Car is taking shape now and I'm enjoying it when the weather isn't too crappy! I'm moving out at the end of this year so wanting to get it where I want it sometime this summer :)

Not much has happened lately. Gave the car another service fitted r tech pcv delete.
Think that's about it.
Next on the cards is new dampers and h+r springs. Then loba hpfp and wellycooler or peron for stage 2+
My brothers bought a steel grey dsg ed30, and my dad is off to pick his dsg Pirelli up tomora that's only done something like 12k miles I think.
