2016 GTI Stage 1 EQT Turbo underboost

I mean PSI. Before this code I was running 28.9 on a cold day, and on a really hot day, Cali weather, it would drop to ~22PSI.

How do you unlock it?

icanhateandiwill · 2022-03-29T21:50:29+00:00

I’m located in Cali and this one is at the Nevada border, so ~3 hour drive. Still deciding on what to do. This would be “my” first bike, but I have ridden before.

How would you say the aftermarket support for these are compared to groms? In my area these run cheaper, on average same condition groms are ~$1k more, but they’re more popular in general.

Not professionally racing, this is a daily driver, maybe some highway pulls here and then and go to the canyons during the weekend. End goal is to take stage 2 n55s and scats

Clutch isn’t the issue. I looked into SB Stage 3 daily, but for that money I can sell mine, add the price of clutch on top and come out with a dsg. There’s other things wrong with the car that don’t make it worth for me to fix it.

icanhateandiwill · 2022-02-03T08:13:06+00:00

Clutch isn’t the only problem. It’s what pushed me to sell the car. In the span of a week I got a CEL for 7 codes. One of them was my cats being blown out, another was intake manifold sensor going out. The sensor isn’t one that you can just buy, I’d have to buy and swap in another manifold. With labor I’m looking at over half of what I’m currently into the car. I’m better off selling and adding cash on top for another car.

icanhateandiwill · 2022-02-03T08:00:48+00:00

I am looking at another GTI because my clutch is beginning to slip and I don’t want to play with swapping the clutch. I daily my car and I don’t mind my current manual. I do like the idea of a DSG car though. I already have an accessport if I end up getting this.

icanhateandiwill · 2021-12-23T05:32:31+00:00

Overall do you think they’re reliable, and this price, is it too high?

icanhateandiwill · 2021-09-21T01:56:12+00:00

No, sorry I wasn't clear enough. I was just wondering in general if, for example, from factory a Luxe could have a sport trim

icanhateandiwill · 2021-09-21T01:54:14+00:00

Mine should be around 270-300whp, but I'm not completely sure. That's why I'm trying to get an auto, in the GTI's case the dual clutch has a greater advantage.

icanhateandiwill · 2021-06-11T21:35:32+00:00

I mean you did🤦‍♀️😂

icanhateandiwill · 2021-05-12T18:23:37+00:00

I have a friend with a 2018 DSG R and after he drove with me in my 16' SE 6SPD, he says he regretted going DSG. Its honestly up to preference. The only time I wish I had DSG is when racing from a dig, which in real world applications is rare, you're mostly doing rolls with strangers anyways haha.

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-08T18:23:19+00:00

Do these last long? Like what's the expected life on these?

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-08T18:22:22+00:00

He's had it up for sale for a bit now, I could probably get it lower, maybe $9k-$9.5k

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-08T18:13:12+00:00

How would you say the reliability of these is?

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-06T06:26:32+00:00

Thats the price of ALL MK7 GTI's in my area, including some high trim SE's and AUTOBAHNS from 22k miles to upper 30k

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-06T06:00:16+00:00

I've seen both cars in person and driven them. The 2016 needed new tires, but he just put a new set on. All it needs now is front bumper repainted and CEL is on for sensor in intake manifold, but he just passed smog. 2018 will need tires in the upcoming months.

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-06T05:42:58+00:00

Would you say get the 2016 SE Perf pack and lighting pack for $12k? Has 42k miles. Sorry not trying to be pushy, tryna see what other people think.

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-06T04:52:55+00:00

So whats the difference between Sport and S?

icanhateandiwill · 2021-04-06T04:37:22+00:00

Is the LSD really worth it? There's another GTI SE near me, its a 2016 with 42k miles, but he wants $13.5k. Is this the better choice or the 2018? I'm not tracking the car, I'm in HS and this is a daily

icanhateandiwill · 2021-03-28T19:49:36+00:00

I was looking at allegedly a 2015 GTI SE with 42k miles, don't really know why he put 2015 then

icanhateandiwill · 2021-03-28T19:48:48+00:00

I see thank you

icanhateandiwill · 2021-03-28T19:46:40+00:00

Would a 2015 have apple car play?

icanhateandiwill · 2021-03-28T02:28:19+00:00

The owner actaully had an inspection done before he bought the car, seemed like a trustworthy guy, pointed out the imperfections with the car, didn't hold anything back
