Not related to this at all. I'm european and honestly always preferred Celsius over Fahrenheit. Tell me the temperature in Fahrenheit and i'll betell it in Celsius and ill be
Is that good or bad? haha idk why but my voice sounds different on the videos for some reason rofl
Worked on three cars so far I believe. The only free parking lot around me at this time had cops cruising around back and forth so I didn't want to bother them or give them something to bother me more about.
They already came up to me asking if im ok when they saw me driving in circle as i was resetting the abs test i accidentally activated lol

Again, those of you in the North East areas such as Long Island, NYC, CT, NJ. Once you get the required info and you don't have a vag-com cable, we can set something up.

VW should break dude off because of this a few more GoRf's will find homes that are not the VW lot!! For sure in the springtime I will be getting a Golf.:R.
For all the playa haters who tried to piss in our Cheerios and we know who you are (Chris K etc....) suck a fat one! Then don't be a b!+c4 @$$ and get the ESC defeat on the DL!! You guys talked bad about the community efforts to right this wrong so stay out of the thread and live with your GD ESC!!!

Wow, happy my 08 doesn't have this ESC silliness, but even more happy that my brothers missing 2 cyl will finally be able to snow-hoon properly.![]()

I have installed most of the popular bolt-on mods for a 2008 R32, minus suspension work. I know a lot about electronics and car audio, and have experience with VCDS ("vagcom"). I'm a radar/lidar countermeasure enthusiast. I like track days, autocross, and US Highway 129. I love aural pleasure.

It looks like our campaign worked, we gave VW a chance to fix this themselves but more importantly we got the message out there to the right people. Lot's of's to this guy!
Now, I just need Vag Com. Also it might be helpful if someone gives us a little head's up on what exactly we need to send through email.![]()

If anyone in the North Shore Mass area needs access to a VagCom cable PM me. Sent all the required info for my car last night. Froze my ass off to run out and record everything but I couldn't wait.![]()

Anyone near sc that can help me with mine?
Huge props for getting this done! When I get my info ill email it!
Thank you all for the hard work!

So it was done with VCDS exclusively? I know .DoTuning has decent equipment to be able to flash/tune cars but I'm wondering if he used that or VCDS to get this done.
I was told it'd be impossible to do as a consumer with VCDS, thankfully .DoTuning is a generous guy and willing to help an entire community

So what are we getting in return for sending the VIN and ABS info? 4 pages of talk, but nothing on what we are actually changing. Long coding on the ABS unit? Something like that? I'd send my info, but I'm winning hearts and minds in Afghanistan right now. Nice to know when I get back I can disable this.

Awesome! I think I'm going to buy the cable just so I can do this.
Once we send our information in, what is needed to implement the fix?![]()
#140
A couple of questions:
Will this throw up a red flag when I take the car to the dealer for service?
Why does he need the VIN?
Does he send back instructions on how we can disable ESC? So in other words, would we have to make the change or does he somehow do it remotely (probably a stupid question lol) ?
