Vcds Nick, text me if you have a free morning this week and I can drop by with a VCDS. FYI, I downloaded mine onto my 15" inspiron, awkward. The display is 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" and the smaller the unit the better, especially when you drag it under the hood or have it behind the steering wheel with...

Seems I heard you don't run into issues until 26 or 28, not sure. Donna's car runs in that range ok. TDI club forum has some very sharp people on it. Check there and with your tuner. Ross tech has good support if you bought your cable from them.

Looking forward to your DB conversion. Nice project you have going, coming along well.

sent a pm, if you have time

What starter did you use?
