    Happened in a driveway at a friends place so no great speed..... rear passenger door and wheel arch are bent but lucky no marks on the wheel.

    least your wheels are fine, I got my first ever gutter rush the other day.
    no worse feeling, that feedback through the steering wheel is just torture.
    Scraped it for half a rotation of the wheel, not sure if i'm gonna bother fix it up as it's only on the edge of the rim.

    Today I lowered the car some more and changed damper settings to the firmest settings, and put some shiny bits in the engine bay.

    Got my fleabay obdII dongle and connected it, without starting the car and just ignition on the torque app was able to connect and I could see all the sensors. Will take the car for a drive later and see how well it works, no stored fault codes but I know my temp sender is fubar so I that will be the real test the next time it wigs out and the temp gauge drops to zero.

    EDIT: Started the car and all the dials, graphs and widgets in the app on my phone fired up. I havent gone through to see if all the sensors have data but it looks to be able to read fuel trims etc with no dramas as well as timing advance, throttle position, MAF readings etc as well as having O2 voltages and a heap of other stuff. I only have the free version of the app for my phone, waiting on confirmation from the developer that he has included a full list of VW pid's before I pay five of my hard earned dollars for the full thing. I am also waiting on the download of the software that comes with the dongle to run on the laptop that seems to be pretty full on for some cheap crap, could be useful for logging etc.

    No faults logged, which is either very good or it cant read them correctly, will have to wait and see. Will try and do some more research to find out how good this is. Its not a vag com but for a total purchace price of $23 it could be a very useful diagnostic tool and its wireless.
