Title: What a difference!!
Post by: Rockey5uk2001 on 22 June 2013, 19:48
Well my vagcom arrived scanned the GTI and there was a fault with the DV


So had a chat with my mums partner and he used to work for Forge & Revo he had a spare 007p in his shed

anyway turns out it was knackered so he pulled a few favours and got me a brand new splitter!

i have to say im amazed with the flexibility witht he splitter and what a difference it made from the knackerd bosh one to that!

next month will be a decat and a cheap remap ;) (revo)

sorry not been around had my appendix out lol

Equally is yours AGU or AUM? How has the DV been set up??  AUM's + Splitter DV = not great....

Much better off with a 007p
