  1. Soon as weather pics up I’ll give it a go. It might look alright with washers to pack it off , I’ll get there somehow , and yeah I’ll get some pics when it’s done 🙂👍
  2. Hiya mate , I’ve kinda come up with a few ideas , I’ve cut the back off the tip which will get me closer hopefully I’m only about 20mm away from the hole so I might use some washers and see how it looks , other than that I might try and move the adblue tank a bit and try and refix it , hopefully I can get my car in the unit tomorrow and give it a go 👍
  3. Hi has anybody done a quad tip diffuser conversion on a tdi, the right side tip won’t bolt on as the ad blue tank is in the way so wondering if anybody has got around this ? Cheers chris
  4. Was thinking that , needs to come down somehow , seen a few do it on the salons but not sure in this country with the speed bumps like ya say , I’ve got a feeling they are 21,s now could be 20”s I’ll have a look tomorrow
  5. Ah , that’s not good , really need it dropping but not worth the hassle I guess thanks again matey
  6. Hi all, has anybody used lowering springs to lower a 2018 onwards avant , if so which ones did you use and gas it affected the ride quality ? Thanks in advance Chris
  7. Ah got ya keep me posted what you find out , would be interesting to see what you have done cheers mate
  8. When it goes back in I’ll ask the question to see what upgrades they recommend
  9. Mate , you have to keep me posted on this because that’s something I’m looking into but unsure how to go about it , they deleted start stop as I heard that that can cause delay , unsure , you will know more about that but was free and never liked it anyway,but the setting off delay has gone it’s just the , as you come to roundabouts , slowing down and accelerating where it’s still delayed, shocking Audi release them like that really when a simple map pretty much cures it , so the gearbox map makes a massive difference then ? Gutted they didn’t have one but are working on it apparently, so looking forward to that 🙂
  10. Just a quick update had the dyno tune and made a massive difference , they couldn’t do the gearbox map as it wasn’t available but they are working on it and to check back at the end of each month , the setting off lag has practically gone which was driving me mad and managed to get some pretty good results on the dyno , they definitely know there stuff and would definitely recommend 🙂
  11. Ah ok mate , yeah I’m gonna ask the questions , I’m a bit nervous but I’ve been watching the you tube videos for a few years and like you say they seem to know there stuff thanks for all your help though mate I’ll keep you updated
  12. Obviously I don’t want it pushed to an inch of its life , and if that’s what they are going to do that would be a expensive mistake in having it done , do they have a warranty ?
  13. So you have had a bad experience with them mate ? What exactly happened ? From the you tube vids they seem to monitor temps and things , I’m a bit nervous now and I’ve paid the deposit
  14. You sound more clued up than me mate , everything you said sounds right , just hope they know what they are doing as I don’t want to here it go bang that’s for sure 🤦‍♂️
  15. Quick update , finally got to the bottom of it I think , contacted dark side , they said the vibration is caused by to much torque and is probably flywheel judder ,I asked if there would be any damage caused , they said probably not as I’d only felt it about 5 times before I took it back to stock they recommend full custom dyno with more progressive torque delivery and to get the most out of the map they recommended a gearbox map with increased torque limiter and other settings like 1st and 2nd delay fix , quick shifting , quicker launch from stand still and other things , they recommended stage 3 gearbox map with custom tune as they have the capability to match the torque to the flywheel , very clued up on what they was talking about , they said they have never done this exact model , and said they wanted it for 2 days so they can really get into it with road tests , I’m definitely impressed with the gearbox side of things , they even come out with you in it for the test , it’s booked in on the 11th October , so hopefully this is it , sounds like they know there stuff , hopefully this will help others on here with similar problems 🙂
