Does it find the cable drivers when you plug the cable in?? If so, go into options in Vag-Com, and go through each com port and click test (first time round mine ran off Com4 and now runs off Com2), then hit apply and then save. If it doesnt find the cable, go through installing the drivers and choo...

just letting it settle, then will see how it looks on the 18's Its too low on the 17's, only a couple of inches of clearance up front. A couple of inches, thats more than enough!!! lol... mine is like that with 18s, otherwise i would of had those alloys off you already!! lol but its looking very ni...

maybe, but depends on how low your going really, i know my 225/40/18' have around a 100mm drop on top of them, so in that case 235 would'nt go as 225 they rub on mine sometimes. You make me sad....lol....225/40/18 rub on yours sometimes................my 215/35/18 rub on mine!!!!!! lol As dubmeiste...

Welcome Ben.... (its been a while )

The only thing i would change with my passat is........making it a diesel (130 bhp) lol...

Do it!! Do it!! Do it!!

I love them alloys and have had my eye on them for my car, but just cant bring myself to lose the Monos!!

Give me a shout if you want a ride in my car, then you can see to a certain extent what the ride is like and you will be very suprised!!

I have Vag Com and the little key thing!! lol...

Am in West Sussex how about you??

(think StrictlyVAG is kent way....i think)

I think i have the same errror code on mine...so am interested if anyone know what it is!! lol...Doesn't make any difference to the car, but then the error has always been there since i got it. So maybe it does!

Nice one...and just thought i would let you know, i know the guy and he has looked after it well and done whats needs when its needed and is a nice car

sorry no idea on price, but that looks very nice!

Just for future reference, you can get the blanking parts from the stealers for basically the same price... (as some people find it easier, i do as they are only round the corner)

looking good!! Im liking the alloys (i have a thing for that kinda style )

Use a program called EasyCleaner... it deletes all temp files, cookies, unneccesary files, registry and you can look at the start up programs... This software works wonders... If you also run Windows clean up and the fore mentionsed adaware and SpyBot, you should notice a huge difference if all done...

2 hours!! My God...sod that, if a keyboard plays up with me it goes straight in the bin!!

Congratulations!! 8)

It is used by VW, Audi, Skoda and Seat dealers.

I couldnt get on very well with Elsawin...

AutoData is a good one too 8)

mine does the same sometimes...vag com picks up that the Idle Control Valve is "intermittent"... but will give this a try one day when i have time...lol

the cold can have strange effects on paintwork... you should really try to keep it all warm when you do it...

i only managed to primer them yesterday.
so i put them on and took a pic for a laugh
now i am gone wet and dry them and then spray them satin black to match the wheels.


but good idea with the DTM look!!!!

Phew!!

Black should look very cool

Please say that is just the primer colour and you are spraying them blue next weekend!!

edit:just noticed they were blue already

Just found that they are Merc rims, and the white Passat belonged to RevoMike... i would say contact him if you want more details 8)

There is a white passat with similar alloys to mine...but think they are merc rims or something (they have square holes iirc), have seen a pic but cant remeber where...lol...if i see it again will chuck it up! I was looking at the TSW Holstens as a replacement for daily driving, as they are pretty m...

Im liking the back bumper but not keen on the front.....

Yes...would look very cool!!

The best i have had was on the way down to newquay, i was sitting at 38.7 MPG (so the car dispalyed) with an average speed of about 70 mph... arounf town etc, i prob get around 28-30 (depending)

Personally im not too keen on the vents with the meshing over them, but A+++ for effort and as long as you like it then its cool!!

But I do quite like the footwells and boot lit up in the blue (used to have similar in my golf)
