    Re: My 2007 GTI

    I highly doubt that Revo is killing the transmission. Tunes are thoroughly tested to ensure that damage does not occur. Find me one thread that shows that any tune (that can isn't ridiculous, giant turbo) that caused a DSG to blow up. The DSG's are known for their problems and sometimes have to go in for multiple fixes on their own.

    I'm guessing the dealer is saying it is tune related?

    I'm not sure what's going on then. I think total of 6000 miles on the tune... It's just really frustrating. I've heard good things about the clutches, I've also heard that the mechatronics can only handle around 300...

    That's weird. I have the DSG and I'm stage 2... I haven't had any problems. The DSG clutch packs are good up until about 550HP

    That really sucks...How many clicks on the tune before you started having issues??

    thats my useless update :P
    Isn't the dsg supposed to hold up to like 400horse or something like that?

    Maybe true in the MK2 world, but in a MK5, I doubt you wanna chip up that nice white paint. Personally, I wouldnt bother getting spacers for the back. The stance is on point, maybe lessen the camber a smidge, and just enjoy driving that low without trashing your fenders. Its lookin great as is. Koni Coilovers FTW!

    I had missed your question above, no, no rubbing, the fenders are all rolled etc! Kinda sucks because everyone knows if your not rubbin, your not dubbin

    Why compare sheer negligence to a mistake that i made? Makes absolutely no sense. Anyways if you want to argue further lets take it to PMs to avoid cluttering his thread

    Seems like you are on the right track now
    Hope to see it at some meets this summer
