MK4 R32 burning tyres!

[balkanac]

Today at lunch i was bored so i decided to play with the v-checker. I accessed the brake electronics function (with ignition on) and the handbrake light and the ABS light started flashing. I starterd the car and took it for a drive. Talk about torque steer and burnouts!!!! Unbeliavable!!! Its going on a dyno tomorrow

What did you actually break?

I think you mean 'break'

Nic, you'd better still be in one piece for Sunday man!

It's the "Go_Faster=1" setting. (default setting is 0)

i didn't change anything. I just plugged the v-checker in and accessed the brake electronics. After i unplugged it, it all went back to normal.
Unfortunately i didn't put it on the dyno this morning, i wasn't sober enough
There is always a next time

Not sure if this is the same as vag-com but when you access the abs controller with vag-com, it disables the haldex system and all of the other electronic aids. Thus the reason you were able to do burnouts etc.

Thats right. I was wondering if it truly disconnects the back wheels. I wanna get it on a dyno, but i dont want the back wheels to start getting power
