The new module on Ali express I bought 9/2024 is programmable....disconnect harness from button then plug module in between harness and button that's it. Gives you option to program 3 modes. 1 Always off at start, push to enable/ 2 remembers last pressed selection even if you restart the car/ 3 back to factory. I press 3 times fast for program mode. then press 2 times for option 1 or 3 times for option 2 or 4 times for option 3. Worked on my 2020 Tiguan and you just need to get to the button plug on the right of the shifter. Now i don't cuss at red lights cause it wont shut off. I paid like 9 bucks waited a couple weeks 1000 percent worth it. Make sure you choose the right make as they have one for all vw's passat, atlas, golf etc, even the old Tiguan 2016. FYI if you just disconnect the module from the battery yes it disables start stop but you lose smart charging. These cars have a variable charging system between 13.3 and 14.5 It operates low charge rate most of the time to extend the life of the battery (compensate for all the extra starts). But will turn up to 14.5 if it senses the battery drained. Truly over engineered 🤷♂Well if you leave module on the battery, the battery "should" last even longer.

@DadWagon with camber correction, will a wheel alignment be needed? I also read somewhere that the MQB platform doesnt not have camber adjustability. Having an alignment done would mean using cam bolts and ither hardware. Which, to me, is not ideal. Please advise. Thank you for this detailed video. Looking forward to more contents from your channel.

If i buy the dealer option, do I still have to pay the extra $500 for a stage 1 tune for example? Just seeing because if so I think it’d be more worth my buck to diy.

O.K. At least you have tuned your VW Golf. But what does "IS38" and "Stage 3 - IS 38" mean? What did you get and could you experience on your test drive?
@DadWagon12 күн бұрын
I have swapped out the is12 turbo (stock turbo) for the golf r turbo (is38) on my car, so it needs a different tune.

I've tried hard mounting my camera to the window for interior shots, but had a lot of micro vibrations in the video. Did you do anything specifically to avoid them?
@DadWagon23 күн бұрын
Did you have stabilization on your camera on or off? Flip it and try again. Typically when mounted like this, turning off stabilization should remove micro jitters. Stabilization can’t keep up with all the small movement.

Did you get any moaning/creaking from the strut bearing after install? I did B6 DCC, Eurosport inserts, and APR Roll control springs. Everything was torqued to spec with the suspension loaded. Same with the strut nut. No impact gun. I used a shock strut tool. Very frustrating.

Damn. Already have an APR ECU + TCU tune ($1800+ CAD) and was going to buy this device just to tune octane up and down at will. It's $129 USD + $69 USD shipping (to Canada) + Sales Tax. Totalling $229 USD = $315 CAD! No thanks! Their shipping cost to the Greater Toronto Area is atrocious lol.

I also have the IE v2 intake but with the lid. I live in Florida where it rains really hard. Yesterday I drove home though a huge storm (mini hurricane). It was so bad that I cousln't see a thing. I got home and checked the IE V2 intake and there was a very little water in the intake. It looks like it drained through the holes like it should. The filter did have some water droplets on it but nothing crazy. the engine and the battery were dry.
