This thread seems to suggest cone seat, and they kinda look that way in the picture, but I can't be sure. https://www.vwroc.com/forums/topic/35135-racingline-cup-wheels-which-bolts/I really tried looking for the answer before asking, but someone might know before I reach out and wait on VWR to let me know.
On the VWR cup edition wheels, are they ball seat like OEM or are they conical?

That was the only thread I could find when searching for cup edition wheels. Seems I should have just searched team dynamics since they're the same wheel, everything is pointing to conical. I guess I can just wait and order the stud/lug conversion once I 100% confirm.

the original APR ignition coils look like this
it has the part number and APR on the top.... looks like they used the APR box but not original IC's...
Anyone know what a typical speaker signal output voltage would be on our non-Dynaudio cars? My uberstealth sub has stopped working and I'm fairly sure the amp is simply dead, but I measured 0.4 V AC on the input and I'm wondering if that's low.
FWIW - confirmed there's an input signal, confirmed correct impedance on the subwoofer itself. Measured output at ~ 4 V AC which is well below the 17 V I should expect via sqrt(Amp Wattage * Speaker Impedance).

Did you use a sine wave to measure? Music will not give you an accurate reading.
50 Hz track. Reading went to 0 in between plays. I don't have a sine wave generator and the input connector on the sub is not an RCA hookup, so I'm afraid that will be the best I can do.

I think he was stating the R8 OEM Red tops were missing the branding not the APR ones. That was the way I read it anyway.
i'm thinkin of upgrading to an android head unit from my super old rns 315. just in case i don't like the new unit and want to return, do i still need the security code (which i can't find in any of the manuals) to reinstall the old unit on the same car? thanks in advance.
I recently purchased a 2012 Golf in Blue Graphite Pearl. I was surprised to see that under the hood there is no clear coat and a lot of the factory blue has flaked off. Were some of these cars not clear coated under the hood? I have owned three other Golfs/GTIs from 2008 to 2017 and all have had a clear coat applied to the underside of the hood, fenders and engine bay. Thanks

It is my understanding that the VWs manufactured since about 2005 have a feature where if you are installing the same head unit into the car that it came with then it will not ask for a code. Any replacement VW radio would require a code.

No visible oil anywhere, take all under tray of also and it’s all bone dry, what do you suggest i do next?
Thank you
Short of having the engine rebuilt, I doubt there is anything you can do other than to just add oil. Some cars have higher oil consumption than others. If the car runs fine and still has lots of power just keep an eye on the oil level and add as necessary. There is not necessarily anything to repair, but I do agree that you shouldn't be letting the oil light come on. By the time that light comes on you are quite low on oil.
