Hi

If you get your post count up you will be able to PM the member. Although don't spam post.

If you are coming up this way, I have Vag com and could do some tweaks to the car

I won't spam post, It annoys me when others do. How many post do you need to do to be able to pm someone then?

I'm new to vw's, so what's this vag com?

Cheers Tom

it is a diagnostic tool that can also code modules in the car

Coding tweaks normally are

Cornering fog lights
Rain Closing
Auto Locking
Alarm beep

Sounds Interesting. Are these cruise stalks supplied and fitted cruise control? Are they like a genuine thing that's sits next o your other stalks?

Hi

Yes, I supply and fit genuine Cruise stalks.
I take the Non Cruise stalk out and fit the new cruise stalk in and code the car to tell it has cruise

That sounds pretty good to me. Do you have a workshop at Great Yarmouth do you or do you do it from home?
