Aha, that is Luke's car, he told me about doing the induction service on his own car last time I was in there. He did think that it was working and if nothing else slowed down the carbon nightmare. I'm surprised that they didn't offer you something for loaning your car, you know something to make it worthwhile for your time. The least they could have offered was a free induction service...

that's what I use periodically, just be sure to hose it off your car if you spill any! It is hard on paint/clear if you spill and fail to remove ASAP.

A new fun problem with the GTI...does anyone else have paint peeling right near the outside edge of their fog lights? I found this recently on my car. For now my band-aid fix was to peel away a bit of this paint and then carefully touch up the area hopefully sealing the edges so it won't degrade further :( Looking at a bumper respray if I keep this car long-term.

Anyone have a tuning recommendation for a 2013 GTI that isn't APR in the KC area? I've heard some good things about Unitronic, but the closest dealer per their website is in Omaha. Would prefer to find something closer.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have to give them a call. When I checked the GIAC website it didn't list any dealers anywhere near KC.

I was at Santa Fe a few weeks ago for winter tire install. They do good work, and are used to working with high performance cars daily. I didn't know they were a GIAC dealer either though.

Just curious, Anyone know anyone that bought my old car i traded in at Salina, KS last Feb. Last I heard before I moved is that they sold it at auction and it ended up in missouri. It was a white 2011 GTI w/sunroof/plaid on DG springs. It's APR tuned. Just wondering if the new owner figured that out yet.

Anyone have any recommendations for good local indie VW shops in the KC Metro area? Picked up my first VW and would like a well recommended shop I can use if needed.

Thanks!

Autopia for basic stuff. BHR for mods or PHP in Joplin. Bud Brown VW is the best for dealer service.

ImportMasters is a good independent shop as well.
