I got told a story just yesterday from a friend wife tried taking the car in for suddenly losing power. Caused by the dsg. They refused warranty saying the car had modified. All that the car had added from new was a baby seat. They took it to everyone they could without going to vcat.. Apparently got fixed but now they're chasing the bill. $8k for a replacement

+1 to there being more to this story.

There's always two sides. But I've seen the car and its definitely not modded, and they've had it since new so..

Reading the news article it seems like vw are doing any/everything to cover their asses. Which kind of make me believe my mate even more

But this is the news, which is almost always tainted

Parents Tiguan had oil leak, b4 even checking what was wrong they dropped a new DSG in it.

then found out it was a leaking head gasket.

SO seems that yeah they having much trouble with them so assume everything is caused by it.

guy in my team at work has a 180sx type x that's painted pearalescent purple with work meister TE35's, big turbo, huge intercooler and a forged SRDET20

it got dyno'd and made 285kw

why anybody in this country would spend money on a golf when you can get a commodore for 1/4 of the price that will outperform it everywhere and rip skids is beyond me...

there is only one explanation,, top bloke hipsters....

    • Followed ☺️ Assuming those are NEO rods, then at least 400kW all day.
    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
    • I'm not a fan of high humidity, it's one reason I don't mind being further inland out Ipswich, except the last 3 odd years, the drought broke, and it won't stop raining, which is making the humidity nearly unbearable when the rains are in during summer! For me, my body hates the cold, once the cold sets into my body, I'm totally screwed. I end up with severe muscle spasm in my back/shoulder muscles, and it feels like someone is trying to tear the muscles out. I have no issues with it getting stupid hot, so long as the humidity goes away. So the last 3 years as above, have been woeful! Ha ha. However, June 1st, and I'm only just converting from shorts and a tee, to long pants and a t shirt. And that's mainly as it's a bit wet and miserable and I wanted to work on a car.
    • I much prefer colder weather to hot weather, and especially prefer cold to hot and humid, Goulburn does gets pretty warm in the hotter months, but, I've found the humidity there is not as painful as even Sydney, the humidity up north is to oppressing for this old rooster  In saying this, it does get rather "nippy" in Goulburn for early morning, late in the evening walks, but nothing that a layer or two, some thermal gloves, and a beanie doesn't fix to make it an enjoyable experience, which is much more bearable to me than the oppression of heat and humidity,  especially at night when your trying to sleep If I recall correctly, a "wise man" once said that the "Southern Tablelands" was gods country, and I will not argue that point with him for the fear of a "permaban" LOL In car part related news: My intake is currently in Botany getting processed for the last leg of its shipping journey to my door
