    infotainment screen black on my Mk7.5 GTI Autobahn

    Yesterday my screen just went black while out driving. I still had radio (SiriusXM) sound and I could control volume. I ran thru pushing most of the buttons and nothing changed the black screen, including turning the unit off and back on. (At the time I did not know about holding for a 10-second...

    BFI motor/trans mounts + Powerflex Hybrid+ ECS Tuning Pendulum Arm = NVH heaven

    After talking with GTI Jake a couple months ago, I installed a BFI Stage 1 motor mount and a BFI Stage 1 trans mount insert. I used them with a PowerFlex hybrid lower puck and the OEM pendulum arm. This set-up produced a much more solid, connected feel with greatly reduced throttle-induced...

    ESC OFF version 1 vs version 2

    My 2018 Mk7.5 GTI DSG can be set to reprogram the ESC/ARS button to turn off ESC by holding the button for a few seconds. There are 2 choices foe ESC OFF, version 1 and version 2. Anybody know what the differences are? Thinking about setting the sequence to ON / ESC Sport / ESC OFF version (?).

    BFI upper trans mount insert for 2018 GTI DSG?

    I have been searching the forums for some useful information about the BFI upper trans mount insert for my Mk7 GTI DSG. BFI lists a upper trans mount insert, MK7T-1. One of the assembly instructions shows drilling out rivets to use these inserts. Fine, no problem. They say: This insert only...

    5mm wheel spacers

    How can 5mm wheel spacers be sold as hub-centric when the Mk7 hub is only 57.1mm out near the end of the hub? The first 6-7mm is smaller diameter but the hole in the spacer has to fit over the 57.1mm section at the end of the hub.

    My 2018 GTI Autobahn has OE LED headlights. I have read all the headlight adjusting threads I can find but i have found none that deal with the OE LED headlights. I see only one possible adjuster screw (hex socket, white plastic). It is vertical but is geared 90* to turn a shaft running...
