  1. I've tried taking the headunit out and the back of it doesn't have the traditional RCA out. It has like this rectangular block of wires that connects to the rca's. I wanted to try and ground the head unit but after taking it out and looking at it, I figured I should just bring it over to a specialist instead. I'm pretty sure it's alternator whine since it gets louder as my revs get higher lol. Sounds like crazyfrog's sitting next to me rofl.
  2. I've tried changing the earthing position but still no difference. I'm not sure what actually happened because it wasn't there before and it only happened recently which I found it to be strange. I might take it in since I'm quite the amateur when it comes to audio setups, but thanks for the tips guys!
  3. Hey guys Wondering if anyone knows of a good audio specialist that could help me out with some unbearable alternator whine I've got in my front tweeters (Pioneers)? Cheers
  4. Hey Ash has my name come through on the list yet? Dan told me he's already contacted you. Cheers!
  5. It's just the general parts for sale thread don't have a dedicated vic for sale thread unfortunately
  6. To test for a wheel bearing issue, grab both ends on the vertical axis of the wheel and push with one hand while pulling with other, keep alternating and if you feel that there's some play there then it's most probably the wheel bearing. I had this issue before and had a mechanic explain it to me.
  7. ah just spoke to Dan over email, I didn't include my nickname in my application =/. He should be contacting you soon
  8. no lol what I'm implying is that there isn't much room for the gti to mod, and even something as minor as a stage 1 tune as they would call it, will cause reliability issues in the long run. In addition this mod in stages is precisely my point, it is stupid and is just scamming all the vw drivers out there. Like the crap they claim at goapr. Plus the fact that after these "stage mods" they claim that their car is the friggin best lolol.

  10. But hey in general people don't care, it's prestige versus.... wait what's that japanese crap, Honda?
  11. Sadly the s2000 was shunned and people would rather be seen in a z4 Yeah those dsg boxes are a no-no if you're going to drive it hard, they wear out pretty quickly, then you'll have to deal with the cost of european parts... Edit: I hate it when people say, "It's just a Honda" when they refer to the s2000 when comparing it to the z4.
  12. Don't tune your GTI and don't be like one of them snobbish GTI owners but it's a cute little hatch no doubt. Buuut meh.. it's a girls car imo, but that's just me! Anything above 169kw and 300nm then Edit: ^
