Yeah, I said to them it was around then that I would book up and they said it's pretty easy going this time of the year. It would be in my name so want to make sure we have 10 definitives before I give the go ahead but I will phone and book up possibly tomorrow as I'm sure we can hit the figure now.

[TrevorB33]

i would think more people will put there names down after christmas

[JohnBoyMinster]

Sweet! My friend said he would come if we need to make up numbers, he has an integra type r.

Mike, cost the rear wheels wernt rolling the Gearbox got confused and it just went into LIMP mode.

[Gareth_1.8T]

Weird - never happened with my DSG Audi when RR'd at Regal.

It does generate a few errors on vagcom, but these are easily cleared.

The trouble with RRing a DSG (without a specific DSG map) is that is is rather tricky to hold at the redline in a specific gear without the gearbox deciding to change up! (even in manual mode)

[vRSsunroof]

Older Gear box?

[vRSy]

some people recommend a remap as the best bhp/£ mod. i disagree. For just the cost of the rolling road @ AMD, you will get loads of free Hp just for turning up.

These rollers have been giving out huge figures recently, and i mean huge.

and yet last time we were there there were Octy vRS's struggling to make standard power....

[lfc958]

Mikes should be ok, as the DSG that went on to the last one was one of the newer cars, Mikes is a pre FL car / DSG box

:rofl:

[rockhopper]

Can it cope with a 4x4 DSG? I'm having my Snow Monster CR140 DSG remapped this week.

Probably not, if its not a 4WD rolling road

[B33fy]

The guys are very helpful, the problem with my car is that the DSG clutch system works through the ABS system as do alot of the systems (TC etc) the gearbox gets confused without the rear wheels turning then as sunroof stated the car went into limp mode. The guys at AMD were very apologetic and gave me a refund, they don't know if there will be difficulties untill they get a car on the rollers.I can't make this one, I might have the V-Storm ready in time for the next trip to AMD. Though I am tempted to bring swmbo's and show the fabia boys a solid standard 200bhp :thumbup

Yea its a 4WD RR. Will take over 1000Bhp so should be alright

[xa0sx]

It's all booked and confirmed. We need at least 10 cars, if we get 20 we get a free BBQ but I'd need to know a week in advance and I'd need to leave a deposit. Please only put your name down in you're 100%.

Start spreading the word as it's 25 days away, all the Christmas stuff is over and done with so back to normality!
