I can think of worse ways to spend Father's Day... A man in his garage with his GTI, a Bud Lite (or several), the baseball game on the radio, a wrench in hand, maybe contemplating cooking up some steaks later in the day. That's what America is all about.

Well, my Father's Day didn't turn out as planned. Ended up taking #2 son to Home Depot so he could buy a 2x4 for building his corn hole game. On the way back, I was hinting about cutting the grass. They didn't get it. I ended up on the mower while the two of them watched the Orioles game. Then I had to host a youth baseball championship game at my local baseball complex at 3:00 and got home at 9:00. For me, it wasn't Father's Day. It was just Sunday. Could have been worse, though.

There's some good DIY videos of DSG service, oil change, cabin filter replacement, fuel filter, coil pack, etc on YT. In particular the ones done by "LastHumansGarage" and "panofish".

I'm almost at 40K and I wanna do some of this. What sunroom lube did you use? My seat is making noise/rattling sound when I push it back after a person exist and I think it MIGHT be because I need to lube it. That, or maybe my dad did something to it while he was driving it last week. :-/

I have posted a video on YouTube with a list of part needed at the beginning. This is for your DSG fluid change. A lot of other videos I've seen didn't have the list so I decided to add this to my video. Here's the Link http://youtu.be/CewO4sOE-fA
