    Thanks man, yes she is a beautiful upgrade but I will sure miss the CC forum, the A6 section of the forum does not have any traffic. I think I will still be hanging in this part of Vortex.

    Pretty minimal prep...the kit comes with some brake parts cleaner. I just used a wire wheel, some scotch brite/sand paper, and the brake clean. If you look at them super close they are no where near perfect (like if they were to be disassembled and powdercoated), but they look great a few feet away.

    Her car is done, so no turn signals! (for now) Its time for my .:R to get some love (Hi-Flo cats, FK Coilovers, GC Camber Plates, Adjustable Rear Control Arms, Poly Bushings )

    Yesterday I switched the bulbs in my fogs. Went from 6000k HID to 3000k HID. It was very foggy and rainy this morning. Wow the yellow fogs make a difference.

    took her to the dealer for some stuff they missed on the 112 point 'inspection'
    • Cruise control not working
    • crack in trunk trim piece (pic below)
    • missing trunk interior trim
    • possible water pump noises (uh oh)
    • plastic cover in in engine bay (part of the air filter inlet) keeps popping off.




    there are 2 cracks...one is visible between the glass and trunk metal...


    Oh, and we did just tint the windows...thats the plus side

    yay

    Update...(if you care )
    Dealer replaced the trunk trim pieces (both) and flushed the cooling system, apparently they think that perhaps it had too much air in the system (or at least thats what they told me)....we will see. And the CC unit actually got fried so they are ordering a new one.

    No big deal, and best of all I get to drive this all day

    Well the last month I upgraded to a rcd-510 hd radio 9w7 Bluetooth euro headlight switch vagcom windows, windows up when it rains, steering wheel voice command, front turns on with city lights/headlights 20%, and drl off. Lamnix fog lights yellow and 20% tint all around on my 09 CPO CC oh and a K&N air filter and Conklin 4g fuel system cleaner ran it two tanks. Also use Conklin fuels mate plus every tank and get 28 mpg two work (half city and half high miles) one tank of fuel made it from Omaha, NE to downtown Chicago doing about 81 mph the whole way. So that's what I've been up to. Next is when it stops raining is to clay bar the CC the mothers carnauba wax here. Oh and almost forgot led lights for my plates

    03-21-2012 05:29 PM #3668
    Well, received all the parts for the LED DRL's, as well as a media cable, and those little valve stem covers. Now just waiting for Achtuning to be able to flash the chip.

    Also, on a good point, I didn't do anything to the CC but did write the check to the DOL for the sales tax and licensing. 10% sales tax really blows. the licensing location asked me if I wanted vanity plates, my response..... "Do you make the UW Huskie plates with a big red slash through the dog?" he thought that was funny. Like I, he is not a part of Husky Nation.

    I'll actually post a picture when it's all done with the little upgradesbut what's the point when we are on something like day 60 of either sleet, snow, rain, hail, and freezing rain.

    Which brings me to my last point. I really, really like the sunroof on this thing. Yes, it doesn't actually open and it only kind of pops up but up here, you would get to fuly open a true sunroofto so very rarely. But with the two tone interior and all that glass, the car feels a lot better than the dark gray M45X did and if I was taller than my 5' 11 or so inches, it would give quite a bit of more head room. The roof should be an option on the Sport, I think. It's the first sun roof I've truly enjoyed.

    Yesterday I had her washed. Today the beautiful pine pollen decided to show up. NC has the worst pollen. So this is the result 24 hours later.
