If your comfortable with this procedure without the VAG - then by all means try it yourself. and save yourself 50-75 bucks

If you have the Ross-Tech software, monitor ATF fluid temperature on group number 4, under measuring blocks, transmission module. The temperature of the ATF fluid during this procedure should be 30-45 C. If the engine is operated for about 15 minutes from ambient temperature, it will reach somewhere around 45 C at the end of the 15 minutes. This is why the car must be cooled overnight. If you do not have the software, just ensure it was cooled overnight. It is not absolutely critical to measure ATF fluid temperature. However, you CANNOT do this if the transmission is not at ambient at the beginning of the fill.

Current mods - K&N Drop in

I just finished taking the cams and lifters out today and will be taking the head off tomorrow to check my valves and pistons after an illusive tbelt tensioner failure. From the looks of things all 8 exhaust valves are stuck.
