    Missfire - MAF Related?

    Had a few missfires the last couple of days only under load while booting it, VAGCOM shows no codes.

    Stereo - speed related volume correction

    Can you adjust this as I find it overcompensates quite a bit at speed, Ibiza one is the same and it's pretty annoying. Cheers
  9. Ruling out my MAF; something is sticking (DV / N75 related?)

    Hi I posted a thread a few days ago about my car having intermittent episodes of feerling held back. I have dedicated this weekend to trying to get closer to identifying the problem. Initially the thoughts were that the MAF may have been the problem but my findings today may point to...
