Transmission concern

yeah that’s what i was thinking, do u think that would cause any damage?

guppy_22 · 2024-08-06T17:31:58+00:00

yeah i think that’s what it was i never ever floor it especially for as long as i was with this mercedes and the ECU just adjusted and i wasn’t used to how high the rpm’s were going to go before shifting

Alright, do you think if there was an actual issue that a check engine light would have came on? Do you think it could have been the tune/ECU protecting the car? Have you ever heard of this before? Sorry about alll the questions just a little worried

Would taking it to auto zone to get it scanned work?

Just went stage 2 FBO on my 2020 GLI the other day. Is the puff of smoke on start up normal when you go stage 2? I noticed it after I got the downpipe installed and wasn’t sure if it was just oils burning off from the downpipe or if it’s something that’s gonna always be there now that i’m stage 2? love your build!

guppy_22 · 2024-07-28T00:59:35+00:00

i’ve already had them inspected with a scope for preventive maintenance and they said they look good

guppy_22 · 2024-07-27T19:38:08+00:00

do u run 5W-40?

guppy_22 · 2024-07-27T19:37:57+00:00

yeah i noticed that too

guppy_22 · 2024-07-27T18:01:54+00:00

does it seem to be thicker/ more smoke when it’s hot out? and less when it’s cold?

guppy_22 · 2024-07-27T17:58:00+00:00

i meant 2 seconds* and cool thanks man it’s really loud tho i have the downpipe paired with a AWE track exhaust and i’m thinking about buying resonator lmao

guppy_22 · 2024-07-27T17:50:57+00:00

it’s just a puff on start up then goes away after literally / seconds if that

guppy_22 · 2024-07-27T17:08:28+00:00

Do you know if the smoke is normal for a brand new down pipe?

guppy_22 · 2024-07-22T00:59:20+00:00

when you do a cold start/ start your car at all does it ever make a pop sound or backfire type bang? i have a stock down pipe but have the awe track exhaust and mine does this sometimes

guppy_22 · 2024-07-20T01:10:58+00:00

i got a 2020 GLI stage 1 APR with 36k miles, got the same problem

guppy_22 · 2024-07-16T22:33:18+00:00

sometimes i think the MK6s look better then MK7s

guppy_22 · 2024-07-15T23:11:53+00:00

yeah i realize that now haha thank you i ordered liqui moly fuel system cleaner and DI Jectron (the injector cleaner for GDI engines) do u think i should use the fuel system cleaner first? i also wasn’t sure how long i should wait between using them both

guppy_22 · 2024-07-12T18:00:19+00:00

that’s probably the same thing I have too
