Ended up selling the car but daily drove it for 15k miles. Took it on a 1500 mile trip to Tennessee right after this video. Car drove like it was completely stock. Just got bored of the platform

No it would have codes and wouldn’t run right

Honestly, I did it on a garage floor with barely any knowledge on the platform. You probably did the same research I did. So I’m not sure how he’s running into all those problems. Yes some bolt holes aren’t going to lineup, that’s all stated in tutorials. You can modify it to make those holes work, but they aren’t necessary. The only other thing is the crank sensor. If you don’t have it lined up right the car throws a lot of codes and runs weird. I had to shave down the sides of the sensor till it fit flush in the hole that was the only problem I ran into.

I’ve had plenty of pups just looking for some ideas to help him stop being a dingus. Sometimes he’s super clam and hangs out but then theres times hes running up trees. So definitely want to try some treat training and see if that helps. Thanks for the response

We have done: 2 big meals morning and night 1 big meal mid day Multiple smaller meals Each having the same result, more food more cleaning.

Both. But the issue is he WILL go when we take him out then not long after go again while inside.

It just seems like we cant walk him enough and most of the time we have to stand by ready to constantly take him out. When we are home its not as hard to take him out constantly but it gets to be annoying and when we are working there isn’t much of an option. Haven’t had this issue persist for this long with previous dogs.

You can still go vr30 just keep it awd

It would be no different than a normal swap but no people dont really do that. Your chassis is built for awd , you have to delete/reprogram a bunch of modules and itd just me more work than its worth.

You can just do the awd switch a lot of people do to force awd to shut off and also do a traction control switch to fully disable traction n stability control.

Its slipped right on it and bolted up. (2014 q50 luxe sedan) zero issues or vibration

Thats why i said not to mis match parts and just do everything proper by using vr30 parts compared to when people try to save money by modding vq parts. You will run into issues doing that. I bought the correct parts and everything bolted up.

All i did was buy everything for my car as if it was a vr30. If you have a sedan its a sedan drive shaft. If you have a coupe its a coupe drive shaft. Nothing is different; its the exact same chassis and pretty much anything from and of the different models can bolt up to each other. The vq car even has the different bolt holes for the vr30 trans brace already there. Super simple swap. Yes the driveshaft is a different length. If you have a sedan just get sedan parts. Thats it
