I know what you mean... when you watch a full Haldex FWD service they use VCDS to cycle the pump, and I guess as the VAQ effectively works as half a Haldex system then it might be needed... would be nice to find out (not that I'd ever be able to do mine DIY).

I have contacted borgwarner about the vaq (front cross drive fxd) servicing requirements. Just wait to see if I get a response.

On the issue of service schedule- though I’m sure many people already know- shopdap.com is a very good resource-

https://www.shopdap.com/blog/post/service-schedule-for-mk7-5-gti-2018-2019.html

Print a copy of this, keep it in a file with all receipts.

Better than any stamped service book.

No problem. Yes, his videos are excellent. That rare combination of a technical expert who communicates well.
