Have you ever adjusted a DG before? Bc that statement kinda makes no sense. From the way I understand it anyway. I do agree tho i dont expect it to get any "smoother"...I just dont want to feel like im jamming my shifter into a wall when going from 2nd to 3rd in high revs....thats the only time it happens.
Kern, the accumulator is the circle thing attached to the clutch master on the firewall. I don't have a picture, but if you google "VW clutch accumulator" you should find it.
GTR_Killer, follow the adjustment directions to a T for the DG. I haven't adjusted mine since I put it in, and that's been through one transmission change. Never ever miss 3rd.

I've tried using that lil insert tool that supposed to hold the shifter a certain way. I feel like its aligned the worst when i try and use that thing. I def feel like adjustments will solve the 2-3rd issue but not the notchyness. My friend has a DG and his shifts are so much more smooth than mine, I dont get it. His is also adjusted on point! I would have zero complaints if mine was like his.
Think these are worth a crap?

Adjusting won't really cure or fix the notchiness. That is part of the DG shifter which I for one like. Makes the shifter feel more mechanical like a mustang.
On average how many times do you have to adjust it before you get it on the money?? I dont think I have ever gotten mine perfect. Like they say, side to side doesnt take any special fine tuning. You can pretty much set that any which way, unless thats my problem, lol ...but i dont think so.
My other VWs the first time I installed the shifter it was perfect. My mk6 it took 2 adjustments to get it perfect but the only gear that was tuff to find was first. I never had any problems hitting 3rd even shifting on the floor.
How much? why worth it?
they were $30 shipped...they take out a little bit of slop for a more positive engagement feel. The FFE are nice because the 2 halves screw together so it is easy to reinstall the bracket since there isn't much room back there. I still have the plastic bracket honestly I don't think you will feel a whole hell of a lot of difference with a metal bracket it is pretty beefy.
haha that 458 driver is a tool. He wouldnt come out unless you bet him $500 and he for sure knew he would win.
New log is up: https://www.dropbox.com/s/adlb7u8ys7dmzka/LOG-01-011-032-313-54C-1014-1063-115C.CSV?dl=0
Notes: This log is with improvements made by JR, new colder plugs gapped at .025, and fixed some boost leaks.
Notes about the logs:
-Car is requesting boost of 2550mbar finally
-Still super rich
-Didn't go over 6000RPM
-Injector pulse starts to max out around 7.4 @ 6000RPM
-17PSI still
This kind of reiterates what I had assumed earlier, something else could be cause the ecu to go rich at about 5500rpm.
The first pull in this log doesn't show it but the 2nd one does, however the first one literally stops on the sample that corresponds to the 2nd run doing it.
My experience with ED on the tsi is very limited and nothing blatantly stands out. Can you do this exact same log like 3 or 4 times to 6,500. That way we can see if its predetermined in the file or it is an actually inconsistency of the car. Yes it goes super rich and running the injectors thin up top but that correlates to the requested being like 11:1 so its not like you are actually running out of fuel, its almost an erroneous number.
What really has me stumped is how the requested is changed all of a sudden.
James, i haven't tried to look at any of your logs yet, but some of what is being talked about sounds like issues i had with the LPFP controller under the back seat.
i would get really rich lambda .74-.75 low hpfp actual 120-130 bar and way high injector pulse width 8-10ms. when i put a gauge on the lpfp side you could see the pressure drop below 4 bar as the other stuff started happening. might be one more path that goes no where, but try and check it out.

never heard of that. have you pulled yours?
