    O2 sensor or alternator

    None of those codes suggest you have a bad alternator so I'm not sure where you got that idea but dont go that route. Those are all o2 sensor related codes. Sensor 1 is at the turbo, sensor 2 before the cat , sensor 3 is post cat. So codes are telling you o2 sensors before AND after cat are...

    2012 mk6 gti timing chain issue help please

    And also check if your car is pzev, bc they have a really good warranty that VW doesn’t like to make people aware of unless prompted to apparently. But if your car is pzev, basically everything that is related to the emissions in any way is covered by a 15/yr - 150k miles warranty

    2012 mk6 gti timing chain issue help please

    You can monitor the block for it with vcds. I know some say between -5 and 5 is fine but I prefer seeing them between 3-4. 5 or more to me means your starting to play with fire

    O2 sensor placement before Catalytic converter

    Yeah fuck changing out the downpipe just to go pass, Seeing some of the crazy things people do , just to run catless or a setup that they know doesn’t pass just doesn’t seem worth it to me. my old mk6 gti which was fbo, with an Ultimate Racing TB, tuned by Eurodyne stg2 was great. I never...

    O2 sensor placement before Catalytic converter

    dont mess with or add anything to the 1st or 2nd o2 sensor. The first one monitors the air/fuel mixture and makes adjustments to keep the engine running properly and the 2nd measures pre-cat. As mentioned a stage II tune will disable the 3rd o2 monitoring. This will eliminate the CEL from...

    DG Short shift question.

    Yeah the side to side is what you need to focus on.. Front to back doesnt have an issue if its not adjusted perfectly but the side to side one does not leave room for error like the front/back. Easiest way to make sure its right is to get everything locked in to place as instructed, then once...

    2011 GTI with Check engine light needs help (P2015, U102F, U1030, P030x)

    Yeah def do what the others suggested for the p2015/manifold issue. Bad news is that the U102F and U1030 codes are unrelated and are basically telling you that the G611 anti-tamper sensor thats attached to your radiator is starting to fail. This happened to me as well and is annoying cause it...

    Error: hill hold assist

    I know that you can modify the length of time Hill hold assist stays engaged with VCDS, I wouldnt be surprised if you could recalibrate the sensors with VCDS too.

    mk6 electrical issues demon possesed car

    Also at minimum, check the main ground connections that are under the battery box as thats where all the systems yours having weird issues with are grounded to. And a loose/bad ground could cause everyone of those weird things your seeing happen
