I didn’t get the base model because I didn’t want to have to manually roll up the driver window….let the alone the passenger and rear windows.

So I noticed my heated mirrors weren't working this morning... did some research and apparently they won't turn on at temperatures above 68° F ? What kind of crap is that? How am I supposed to de-fog my mirrors on these hot and humid Florida mornings during the summer? :(
You need to get a garage bro.

Well, I'm an idiot, but this week was a good week car wise. I finally fixed my gas tank issue and realized I was reworking my wastegate map backwards. I didn't realize that -0.0001 meant 0% boost. I thought it mean wastegate is closed. 🤦 I would plug in numbers like .25 and .45 which I thought meant wastegate opening 20% no... It means 80% of the airflow is diverted throught the wastegate, so no boost. Either way it spools quick AF now.

All those options are overrated anyway.

I don't know, I thoroughly enjoy having a back up camera and ACC. I could probably do without the parking sensors but they are nice.

Really? The rabbit has all the hardware (radar/camera etcetera)?

Whale humping, or humpback whale? Instructions unclear.

Not sure if you’re interested in H&R springs (1.3” drop F/R) but I just found a deal on a brand new set for $209 shipped.

I hadn't considered them but I'll take a look. Link?

Anytime. I was nervous to drive far for a while because I installed an RS3 fuel pump and gas gauge was crazy off afterward. I'd fill up and the gauge would drop 1/4 tank in 15 miles, then go down normally after that. It still read correctly after that, just annoying. I get about 20 mpg/180ish miles before I am the hash mark before red.
