APR has had my ECU for 2 weeks with no updates

yeah theres a certain point where you just dont know what the fuck to do.

I got to drive it for 10 minutes and went WOT one time before all hell broke loose once again. But it felt good that one time. The surging I was getting before the ECU got replaced is gone i think haha

Trade in.

Trade in.

I have to think that's a decent idea but it's probably not worth much broken

Update.
My local dealer that has my car now said the only issue left is being caused by the intake flap position sensor. They said even though the other dealership replaced it they didn't do a great job and messed it up and my dealership won't warranty their work so they're telling me I have to take it back to Rochester and they're handing it back to me broken. On an extended warranty item. They said the policy is that they can't warranty other dealers work

I would have them show that to you in writing from a VWOA header. Then contact VWOA. The way I recall, you have the right to switch dealers if you're not comfortable returning to the original one that did the work that's now causing a problem.

Does the original work on the sensor fall under warranty? If that work was done under warranty, any other dealership should have to recognize warranty work.

I called the Rochester dealership and they called my local dealership and apparently talked them into it. Car should be ready Monday and they gave me one of the Jetta TSI loaners which is actually a pretty friggin fun car to drive so I'm content for now

the saga continues...

VW of Orchard Park is now again refusing to work on my car, saying the other dealership screwed up the Intake Manifold and so they cant warranty it and also that they want their loaner back so telling me to just come pick it up. Again. 5 weeks.
