Technically was over the weekend but finally got round to fitting the wiring/button for the KW DDC coilovers. Finally all up and running again and nice to be able to adjust the damping on the move from the button in the centre console. Only took me about 8 hours to run all the wiring to each damper and then the fuse box side and centre console button  :shocked:. Apart from the front seats pretty much the whole interior was out  :grin:

Also fitted me Thinkware F770 front/rear cameras.

Next on the list is the wheel refurb as I really don't like black rims  :rolleyes:

Playing around with my Pixel 4 last night. Cameras on phones are amazing these days!

Received my OBDeleven and made the following mods to my Clubsport.

DRL Dots setting - thanks RWLEIGH!

Increased Traction setting for VAG diff. This is a fantastic mod for anyone who has a performance diff GTI. Prior to the mod I found the diff quite subtle, with this mod when cornering hard you can feel the diff effectively dragging you through the corner. Great mod in my view and I believe this is the standard setting for the Clubsport S.

This video shows adaptation for drl dots.

I have obdeleven, but haven't adapted drl dots as I didn't really see any benefit?

I've always wondered about whether to do this mod, wouldn't it be the same a turning it to spot mode in the individual settings or is it even stronger in sport mode when adapted through OBDeleven?

I never change mine out of sport mode and this mod definitely increases the traction in that mode, so believe it is a default setting but not sure how the other modes such as ECO would be affected by this change. Worth a try, it’s easy to reverse.

Still trying to reduce my condensation.
Took both rear door cards off an poured water down the outside of the windows.
I was surprised to see water droplets coming from every clip and rubber seal. I’ve used plumbers mate to seal everything and I’ve had no condensation since.
By the way no water was getting into the car beforehand.

My advice is that if you are getting condensation and can’t understand why, wip the door cards off and seal everything
