what were the codes

 

p1131 and p1113. they are both o2 sensors im pretty sure, but if you know for sure it would be a great help. my god thoes guys at Autozone were retarded. I asked them if they had any vag cables and they were like no (looked right at em) i then asked if they knew what the codes were and they said "you gotta take em to a deala" yeah i need a vag

 

I bought a ebay vag cable, and i love it. I can check codes, which is nice. I an also change some things - although not everything. I might buy the software to log after I chip- whenever I get around to that

Quick question for you guys - anyone ever replaced their valve cover gasket? Im pretty sure mines leaking, and I dont want to take it to the stealership, but would like some help/guidance/confidence if I do it myself. Just throwin that out there. Thanks guys.

 

i need to get vag too...... trying to talk the wife into letting me do that soon......... but i also need parts for the diy day i am having soon


i haven't done one per say but it is a bunch of nuts...... i lifted my valve colver when i was having my issue a while back

 

Hmm, maybe I will give it a try soon. Kraut, im guessing you didnt have any problem taking the cover off and putting it back on, and have had no problems since?

Now I just need a torque wrench. Im sick of the oil smell!

Time to look up the DIY

 

if you wanna give it a wirl...... i got a garage and a ton of tools..... i need a new torque wrench........

and no, no problems from the valve cover.... i didn't fully get it off though.... and if you want to paint it, now is the time to do so

 

Yeah i know having a vag will be so helpful, as for parts, Turbo i will be buying down pipes soon, and was wondering if you know how to install that kind of stuff? oh has anyone here chipped their car?

 

i have apr tunning i like it alot....... search the fs section, you might get lucky like me and find someone that is selling their ecu already tuned, if not reid-vann can do it for you

i am doing my dp soon..... i have never done a turbo, but if you are looking to upgrade, wait till you get the turbo to do the sw..... or you can drop the 4999.99 and get apr stage 3, there is a guy over by me that has it and it sounds good

 

Sorry, but what is SW?? just wondering, but i dont have near enough money to do the Ko4 now, but I think i might buy downpipes soon. I talked to a guy and he told me most the exhaust is clamped anyway and i should just be able to remove and intall with out anything more than a wrench. Would the new DP's make the car sound a lot better? (looking at VAST DP's cheep, but people on a6 forums swear by them)
