What did you do to your .:R today?

[mfbmike]

Took it back to the dealership...Nothing new here.

I got a code on my MFD that said 'CHECK CDC'. Took it in and found out that I get another new radio. This will be my third. They are gonna see if they can swap it for the RNS-510 and see if that fixes the ongoing problems that I am having with the sat radio too.

While there I found out that they have a TDI Cup Edition in Salsa Red. So, I began negotiations to trade it for the .:R. I hate to do it but I just can't have this many continuing issues with one car. It's always something. So after only 8 months of ownership I may not own an .:R by the time the week end rolls around.

I'll keep you guys posted.

TDI CUP EDITION IS BOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

[mfbmike]

Traded her in last Wednesday.


Just noticed they listed it for sale. Car is in awesome condition for anyone interested or if anyone knows anyone looking...

- Threw some WiTW stickers on.

- Dropped the hood off at Wagenwerks for refinish/warranty work. Rolled around town for a bit topless. Installing my crap hood shortly.

- Stopped by Gunther VW to check out two brand new Gorfs and see how a friend's car was doing. Coolest VW dealership ever.

TDI CUP EDITION IS BOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

Yeah, not as boss as the .:R though!

If I do end up going through with it I know I'm gonna be super sad. I have been entertaining the idea of trading for a Cup Edition for a couple weeks. There are none within a reasonable distance from my house with decent mileage on them. I was talking to my service advisor today and he mentioned the demo car he was currently driving, a TDI Cup. I immediately asked to see it! I'm gonna see what, if anything, can be done about it when I go back to have the radio replaced later this week. I have mixed feeling about it but it kinda feels like it was meant to be. I donno, we'll see.

Threw on the new plate:



And washed North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania off of it.

[helement2003]

Dropped it off at the dealer. Passenger side seat has about 15 degrees of total travel on the recline knob.

Don't know what happened, but it just stopped working recently.

EDIT - Just got a call from the dealer. New seat frame on order.

Replaced my HIDs with Philips 6000ks (had one die this morning; turned pink on Friday night). As soon as I did one of my ignitors fried...

Now I gotta find a good price on a damn ignitor...

Eek. How much are those?

[crookedR32]

these came to my office yesterday, need to get tires mounted then I can throw on my FK Silverlines and diesel geek skid plate

[Saabstory02]

What I've found so far says about $150ish minimum...

[HOWIE-WP]

Bought set of second hand tyres on Khartoum rims for Wookie-WP, in transit at the moment.

[crookedR32]

scheduled 40,000 service doing little stuff like plugs myself and something like air filter i dont need b/c of my HPA intake...save $$ where ya can

[RRRRR32]

Scheduled a DIY 40K service with a friend. Ordered a Gen 2 Haldex Controller to be installed at that time.

[TeamZleep]

Bought haldex fluid/filter. Picking up rear diff fluid tomorrow.

[NittanyR32]

Alignment and tire rotation

[Saabstory02]

Put another 75 miles on it in 1:45... (took the long way to work for some driving fun )

[Mr_Peach]

Rotated my summer tires.

Just touching the wear bars on the former fronts (now rears). Also noted more wear on the LH tires, as they take the most abuse on my CW track days.

I have a fresh set of Direzza Star Specs on my other set of rims, just trying to squeeze the last bit of life out of these...

[JayUG]

Cleaned the interior...

[Gman57]

Over the last two days I have installed a set of smoked tail light lenses and removed the factory radio and replaced it with an RNS-510. After install had sirius radio and traffic alerts activated. Tail lights look great and new Nav/Rad works great and tunes sound much better. Then today after washing my R, I clay bricked the entire car then brought the Deep Blue Pearl to an incredible shine with Mother's pure carnuba wax. Now I'm enjoying a cold beer. Cheers

sitting in the car waiting for the police man to come back with my license, cars to loud, which it is but who cares.

[CF3018]

Sold my stock trim, and went to brushed aluminum for now. I'm probably going to do something different with the trim soon.

Installed .:R32 door sills.

On that note, I just finished wiring up both my flapper switches. I've got the OEM flapper in the right tip on my Borla exhaust and in the place of the Borla resonator....a striaght pipe with a cutout and another flapper.

The Borla without res sounds amazing. Its pretty loud, but the flapper in the tip knocks the decibels down for when you don't want to be noticed.

The cutout is LOUD.

I'll post more details, pics, and videos soon

some pics would be nice. Good pics! I'm on the fence about these and NO ONE post decent pics of how they look.

Awesome, thanks!

fitted my PerformaceLEDs Stage 3 City Lights and my RCD510 that also came from Shawns Speed Shop.

Well happy with the results

[HOWIE-WP]

Bought set of second hand tyres on Khartoum rims for Wookie-WP, in transit at the moment.

Rims and tyres arrived this morning. Continental Sport Contact 2's practically new (came off a Mk6 about 500km's on them) and the rims look in good condition

Acquired 1610's old RCD500....in transit

[Saabstory02]

I've had pics of these up for years now...

[CF3018]

To add to Saabstory02's pics above here are some more shots. The light above my parking spot went out overnight, so its a bit dark. I'll try to get some daytime shots outside sometime soon.

Ignore my dirty carpets

Nice trifecta of .:R symbols

[Kzoo]

Dang it! I was really hoping that you had the OEM ones. Those look nice though and thanks for the pictures!

Does anyone have good pics of the OEM door sills installed?

Anxious to see and hear this. When I had my Borla, I was considering cutting the resonator out.
