Think I found the cause gearbox issue I have been having. When still it would go into first fine but if moving then it would resist going into first on the first attempt but release pressure and push again it would go into first ok. On the top where the arms attach to the gearbox i noticed some shiney scrape marks. Went to move the arm and it was extremely wobbly with the arm scraping on the gearbox need to test tonight and get a socket on it but finger tightened it to stop the arm scraping. You can see where its cut the sticker in half and made shiney metal.
Nut has come loose again so tightened the nut and will put some threadlock on it tomorrow.
I know there are other options but these worked just fine for me and are v bright.

Blocked the EGR vacuum, engine seems more responsive but that could be a placebo. Noticed oil spray coming out of the EGR but not sure if that’s new or not.

Installed a new diverter valve made by GFB and also installed a new short shifter from forge sport
What's the difference between the gfb diverter and the standard revision g??

The main thing is that it sharper throttle response and faster boost recovery when changing gears.

I'm making a video for GFB-UK so if u want to see a review of it keep an eye on here later in the week.
No it's been off a few times since I have had the car, must say it's a crap design to have the filter in the engine cover.
However I do see the need for a cover as the 2.0 tfsi engine is one ugly looking engine

Ace. What power you running at the moment? What you going to do handling wise for putting down the power? I'm ordering a wavetrac when the garage open in an hour.
