    Sweeeet! Can anyone that has a vag-com trick please post it here, regardless of how "simple" it may appear. I'd love this to become a sticky for everyone, especially newbies like me ( in the area of Vag-com! )

    Speedo error reduced

    Changed stting in instruments to read more pulses so speedo reads less by about 3%.
    Means 100kph now at 103 instead of indicated 107.
    Moved speedo needle anticlockwise one click and it now reads spot on.

    Cant find my VCDS pix (Maverick has some I believe)
