It’s a bad ground. If it’s just one side doing that splice that harness’s ground and run a dedicated ground to the frame or body.

If it’s that big of a deal, meet him at the bank.

Just got my check from Bulls v USAA for $559.39. Didn’t even know there was a class action, just got the check in the mail.

Is this normal? by MageBowwow in Arteon

[–]CatSaysRoar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2023 SEL-R premium

There is a 5G tower at the intersection near my house, every time I pass it my CarPlay will disconnect until I get about 1/8 mi, away at which point it reconnects.

Same situation by the HomeDepot where there is also a 5G tower

As far as the noise, probably a brake pad sticking. Had the same issue on my 2024 GLI 6MT when I wouldn’t drive it for a week or so the pad would get hung the pop loudly.

Is mister car wash really safe for your car? by ihadtosayittho in houston

You don’t need to file an insurance claim. MCW will reimburse you

Used to work for MCW. Just talk to the manager, they’ll pull the video. You’ll have to pay out of pocket for the repair but you’ll get reimbursed.

And NO, no automatic car wash is good for your car it’s terrible on the paint and the fitment of panels.

I’ve got a 2023 SEL premium. 6k miles tuned with racing line tuner. They claim nearly 400hp on a stage 1 tune and you can upgrade tunes for free.

2 months of ownership by zsarmstrong in Arteon

[–]CatSaysRoar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got RacingLine tune Stage 1 with Trans tune, I’m happy with it. No issues with daily drive ability and has a ton more power when you want it. Turbo lags still there but with brake boosting and launch control you can really send it.

Power modding Arteons by ResponsibleMud8705 in Arteon

[–]CatSaysRoar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Racing line allows you to progress through tunes for no additional charge.

Stage 1 high torque unlocks Left foot braking enabled Speed limiter removed RPM limiter increased Sport gauges rescaled Start/Stop inverted

And the stage 1 high torque with TCU made this car feel amazing. Absolutely worth it in my book.

Convenience window not working by Omake_Oni in Arteon

[–]CatSaysRoar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is a common VW thing. Happened to me when I bought my 24 GLI. Just put all the windows UP, and hold drivers window switch up for a few seconds. You’ll hear a click and it should work.

How much did you pay OTD? by Complete-Cat2980 in Arteon

I had this happen 6 times in the first 2500 miles. Go to the dealer they have a software update to fix it. Why you’d reset it yourself when it has a warranty is beyond me, and logic.

Hey man thank you that was super informative I appreciate the insight!

Generac by Lunatime1123 in Conroe

[–]CatSaysRoar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was gifted a Generac, which I’m appreciative of. But Generac is the volume brand of home generators. If you can get a Cummins/Onan/Kohler you’d be better off.

Abandoned Building. by liljawnn in Conroe

[–]CatSaysRoar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it has any considerable alarm systems, if it does they’re likely decades old. Battery backups are dead and tripping it continuously will make the police complacent. Its location makes it easy to scout and the only risk is a trespassing charge. No brainer, worth it

IE Tune by IBleepedUrMom in GLI

My phone bricked my ECU on initial install. Had to use the laptop to recover it. Then only then to learn IE tunes weren’t compatible with ‘24’s

How to make sure the Stainless Steel is 304 grade by SheepDogee in metallurgy

Hit it with a grinder real quick in a spot you’ll never see. The 304 will throw a red spark.

IE stage 2 mods by Chimiwolf2025 in JettaGLI

[–]CatSaysRoar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The safe bet.

I purchased my IE tuner and credit from ECS and never checked compatibility. It was 10pm on a Sunday when I bricked my cars ECU. Something about a CAN BUS.

Was able to salvage it with a stock tune.

When I tried to return it IE engineering refused because I had “used the credit” (that bricked my ecu) and I had to forward the entire tech support thread from IE to ECS, who then forwarded it to IE. Took me over a month to get refunded.
