What did you do to your Mk5 today?

[benough]

So just a VAGCOM setting?

I imagine your parkers are still on also? Take a photo without the flash.

Yeah just a VAGcom setting. I'll take another picture today and I'll also post you the screenshot of the VAGcom screen.

The parking lights do stay on. Here's the screen shot of the VAG com:


And here are the photos without flash:


The right side is with the indicator on (the parking light is set to 20%).


Don't think I'd posted these yet, but I recently bought some second hand USDM taillights I've only installed the inside clusters and already think they look way better.

Installed a VMR boost gauge today under the rain

Did it DIY style with the help of 2 very unfriendly people who kept giving me the ****z about being a noob! you know who you are! Top job guys. Couldn't have done it without your help

During the week, I was thinking about getting new tyres.

Was on factory Michelin Primacy for almost 25,000 kms and was thinking of getting some of their new Pilot Sport 3's - they've had great reviews.



Shopped around over the phone, prices ranged from $250 to $350 (!!!!) per corner... not sure how there can be so much difference between retailers??

So I was driving along today and I apparently drove over a piece of metal... tyre pressure warning light... flat right rear tyre... changed to spare (wasn't raining for once - thank you Melbourne).

This was enough motivation for me to bring forward the purchase of the Pilot Sport 3's to "right now" - the guys at Bob Jane T-Marts on Nepean Highway, Moorabbin matched my cheapest price over the phone and put them on in 1.5hrs on a Saturday arvo (good service).

The handling, dry and wet, is UNREAL and it's so much easier for the car to put the power down with all the new grip (they almost don't slip over tram lines...)

Hands down best tyres I've had - well worth your consideration.

Threw on a Carbonio intake to complete Stage 2 and fitted some Prorack 'Whisper' roof racks and a Thule bike carrier for the mountain bikes

another MKV with RR & bike carrier



Didnt like Thule RR's?

[adzy]

Oh nice... you have the Thule bike carrier that I have just ordered! I need the side arm one as the one I have does not fit the frame of my Marin due to the rear suspension.

Yeah I went the Prorack's as I liked the sleek design and the flush edges.

Put some 18" RS4's on my Jetta.
