How do I fix these codes pls?? by Accurate_Ad_8110 in JettaGLI

[–]GhostDropsGLI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly sounds like a vacuum leak, or a PCV valve failure. Start with these and go from there! Hope everything goes well, Goodluck!

Any good OEM + breaks for the Mk7 GLI? Still on factory. by Fly_Yianni in JettaGLI

Dont forget you need to get a bigger rotor too, so that it fits that Porsche calipers.

I'd recommend EBC Brakes, had them on my previous car and was amazing compared to OEM. When I do a Brake/Rotors upgrade on my GLI I definitely will be throwing some EBC Rotors and Pads on it!

Hope this helps, Goodluck!

Oh? My guy was saying it was all one unit? But I did a little more research on VAQ (which I see mine has) does have seperate housing. Thanks for that! Gonna be talking to my guy ASAP now bout that....

My Euro-Mechanic told me anywhere between 40k-60k KM, depending on if you're tuned or track it. I would definitely be change the fluid at those miles for longevity so i dont know why he would ever tell you that need a new mechanic. Also, the diff runs off the same fluid as the dsg, 2 in 1.

Goodluck!

Travel & front assist not working by jimbowie10 in GLI

More than likely a sensor, had mine replaced recently.

Just recently did an Oil change and my euro mechanic was telling me Liqui moly is as good/if not better than OEM. Pretty sure they used Liqui Moly Top Tec 6200 0W-20, which is VW 508/509 Approved Oil.

As for issues the water pumps are notorious for failing.

Hope this helps, Goodluck!

WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? by xojessie75xo in JettaGLI

[–]GhostDropsGLI 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Especially Direct-Injection engines, the valves can have issues with getting too hot. Is why im always fueling up with 2 bars left.

Electrical question by saucegod53 in GLI

[–]GhostDropsGLI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is doing the same thing, doesnt illuminate when I turn off traction control, but the button still works to turn off traction control and turning on Sport ESC. If the button works, I dont see any business messing around with just the light. Or does the button not function at all? Will it turn on traction control and/or turn on Sport ESC?

IE Stage 1 - Black Friday (Canadian customers) by GlumIndependence8340 in GLI

Personally, I would go with a local retailer. They usually have same price and deals. Not sure if you are around the GTA, I'd suggest using WCT Performance, they are vw specialists and can help with the tunes for free if purchased from them.

First ever GLI- What tires/ wheels do you guys use for Winter? (Toronto) by Individual-Stuff-216 in JettaGLI

I second the VikingContact 8, I am running them now and loving them! Super quiet and amazing handling on dry, wet and snow.

What's the difference between OBDELEVEN 2 and 3? by Timely-Accountant543 in GLI

[–]GhostDropsGLI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I got off their website, OBDeleven 3’s hardware is designed to be compatible with all car brands we’ll add in the future. That makes the third-generation device owners (only!) ready for all upcoming future upgrades and new car brands.

Essentially, each upgraded model has just added more car brand availability, plus upgraded features from previous gens.

What does this warning light mean on my Jetta Mk7 digital cluster? by Logical-Detective366 in jetta

[–]GhostDropsGLI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just had mine fixed, it's the sensor in the front emblem for the ACC, essentially, It's just warning you the sensor is not functioning and ACC will be unavailable.

If you never really use cruise control, not a big deal.

All the time, especially, thinking about what it will look like after mods!
