It Snowed. Therefore I Must Slide.

It finally snowed here in Michigan... and a pretty decent amount. There's about 13 inches on either side of my driveway. The precipitation happened over the weekend which meant there were plenty of wide open, unplowed parking lots. It was perfect.

    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.

    Thanks for posting. Great video and very educational. I do have two questions. I have the manual stick shift Porsche Cayman 718. I have plenty of horse power and torque coming out of the stock engine. My only interest in the at home APR tuner is to turn off the F&^%$ annoying "engine stop/start" button. Based on your experience with the APR tuner, if I purchase the tuner for my Porsche, can I go through all the options and program the tuner so that the only mod it does is to turn off the "engine stop/start button"? My second question is about the TCU tuning. Since I have a stick shift, I don't need to worry about the TCU tuning, correct? Frank

    • @DadWagon
      @DadWagon 2 месяца назад

      Answer to your second question: Correct - don't need to do TCU. First Question - I don't know the answer to this. I don't believe start stop options are available through UltraLink tuning. I have another video about removing this challenge on a Tiguan. That was done through a small piece of electronic hardware. Check it out.

    Wish I found this video a couple of weeks back when I replaced the solenoids on my daughter's '06 Jetta. Anyway, pieced it together from various videos here. Most guys seem to just replace the whole valve body unfortunately, which isn't a bad way to go, just more costly (especially if it's just your solenoids which are bad). And yes, the numbers and the color of the replacements seem to differ but my 2¢ is that the end one with the squared tip was a b!tch to remove and even harder to install (had to "press" that one in there with a large pair of channel locks) and there was also one of the middle ones which didn't have a "50" on the end but instead a symbol. As far as your solenoids not entirely fixing your issue, are you sure you diagnosed it correctly? Bad solenoids in the 09G usually present themselves as working perfectly fine when cold but once things warm up, that's when the hard shifts and late shifts start. Ours would go into limp mode too when this happened (would miss the shift from 3rd-4th). How did your transmission fluod smell when you initially drain it? If it smelled like burnt rubber then your clutches are probably shot.

    Tips for those with a 2017 (MK7) GTI sport- don't remove the rear view mirror if you don't have to. It's nearly impossible to put it back on the mount without cracking your windshield. (Ask me how I know.) I did discover that the metal arm that attaches to the glass is easily removable by turning it counter-clockwise. So do that if you want the extra room of not having the mirror there. Also, I bought wires that were 16" long, and that wasn't enough length to be able to mount my Escort under the mirror. Next- the plug on my GTI was slightly different in that it has 6 wires going into the blue connector. The red is still hot, next to that is gray, and then the brown wire next to that is the ground. And finally, my wires were always on, so you have to have a detector that has the option to turn itself off. My Escort Max 360 mk2 can be programmed to turn itself off, which I needed to do.
