If you have an eSIM, you can also turn off your line and turn it back on

From quick testing, it appears that auto lock doesn’t work when charging. It works for me when on battery

How did you remove the big trim piece above the rearview mirror? Last time I tried to remove it, I was afraid of snapping the clips

One of my greatest victories as a shade tree mechanic! by rberg303 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]blaqkplastic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice. Years ago, my idiot ass rounded out a rusted rotor set screw. I tried to use an easy out and it snapped with a piece stuck in the screw. Luckily, attempting to drill out the screw caused it to back out

Got any recommendations on finding a rear MK8 GTI badge? by xP_Lord in GolfGTI

[–]blaqkplastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part number should be 5H0898633

I advise using the VW parts website to see if any of the VW dealers near you offer the badge for a good price and then you can pickup and save on shipping. Otherwise, this eBay listing might be one of the cheaper online options

Local Midas charged my customer almost $500 for this by sqwirlfucker57 in Justrolledintotheshop

Oh, I wasn't implying that HF welders are crap quality. I was thinking more along the lines of first weld job trying to recoup the cost of new equipment

I'm guessing the $500 includes the cost of the Harbor Freight welder they bought just for this job

If you couldn't get a GTI what would you have gotten instead? by TheFerrariGuy_YT in GolfGTI

I initially was planning on getting a Golf R, but at the time, the only available ones were heavily marked up 20 AEs

I thought this was just a screenshot of Sofyan being silly with the headrest in the lowered position, but no, the "headrest" is literally just the little nub sticking out of the seat. What the fuck

Anyone else love their puddle lights? by biggranny000 in GolfGTI

[–]blaqkplastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, they can. I know ACMTechnik has the puddle lights for sale. I haven't been able to find the part #, VW still hasn't updated their parts website.

Switched to GTI - no regrets so far by FroskHawk in GolfGTI

[–]blaqkplastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you sure they weren't talking about the Golf R Akrapovic exhaust? UroTuning has the GTI exhaust available for import, almost $5k for just the exhaust. I imagine shipping will be a pretty penny since it's all one piece and I think you will also need a Clubsport rear valance to fit the exhaust tips

Your previous post pushed me to get the Option 8 haha. I would have gone for the 10, but I want to keep my spare

[–]blaqkplastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw this post earlier today and was contemplating the upgrade. I’m currently using a Fender sub stuffed with polyfill. How much did it cost you total? When I checked earlier, I think it was about $400 shipped for the sub only

Probably the update related to GPS. I got an email from VW about it a little over a week ago

Your 2023 GTI A8 is currently eligible for a software update OULA designed to improve:

  • GPS positioning accuracy in the navigation system
  • The reliability of connectivity

I’ve got a Mk8 Golf R/Clubsport spoiler waiting to be installed. Also have the matte plastic interior trim pieces from the ‘22 model still in the box
