I'm honestly not sure! I was always under the impression it only worked with a MFSW, but then that theory was disproved with it working on mine!

I guess it's only on some, I do remember when I had a match last year it wasn't available on that?
Sorry that I can't be of much help haha! :)

Yeah what i love about them is that they give tha car a "functional" drop - we don't have the best roads in SA so a slammed car would be pointless albeit beautful. :lol:

Everytime my buddie tries to convinve to go H&R rroute and i must say it doesn look nice with H& R springs but the harshness of it all is just too much to bare :oops:

Definitely, I like how it looks anyway! And as you say there's next to none loss of functionality day to day!

Finally got a half decent shot of inside!

Sunny weather, so a quick wash was in order! Springs have settled fully now, looking brilliant. Actually used a camera this time instead of the iphone camera! 8)

Really? what did you try to enable, "staging" or "indicator celebration mode"? Mines 2013 and it's worked, along with one of the others in the family that we got in september :?

Tried "staging" Got negative response from the control unit when trying to save. Done with both a VW diag machine and a VAGCOM.
