Thanks Umai. That's what I was afraid of.... I don't have a triple square socket to fit that driveshaft bolt....

I've separated the strut mount / hub assembly from the lower control arm completely by removing the 3 nuts of the ball joint.
The problem is that when I try to flex the hub assembly down, the...

I'm trying to make sense of the requirement for washers if you run xenon headlights?
There's probably a really simple reason....but enlighten me...

Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in to this discussion. You can be as careful as you like when purchasing a used car but that doesn't always guarantee a fault free purchase.
I spent several months...

Gear changes sound too slow to be auto or DSG in my opinion.

Wow. I have also deleted centre muffler. Roughly what cost for the exhaust bypass valve set up?

Might have to try this mod on my CC.

Geez my wife would murder me, having just spent $1100 fixing the Haldex pump!

Cheers. Sure does look good.

Hey rjt86 those rims are damn sexy. What are they? What size? Also what springs have you fitted and how much lower is the car now?

Vexed, just curious...from the last comment I assume you have access to a CC workshop manual. Is this the case? I would give my left nut for a copy!

Had the CC looked at today and the diagnosis is (as suspected) the clutch pump in the Haldex. So the bank account will be $1100 lighter in the coming weeks.

Will do. I am taking it in on Tuesday for someone to check.

Thanks everyone for contributing to this thread.
So it was a wet day today so on the way home from work I tried a hard(ish) launch from standstill and to my dismay was greeted with buckets of front...

I might have to do more tests, as I generally lift off the accelerator when it breaks traction. I will let you know. And I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.

Thanks AdamD. So does the fact it spins the front wheels up fairly easily suggest a problem with either the diff or Haldex or is it more likely just exceeding the 50% torque?

Hi all. So I've owned my 2011 CC for a few months now. Not long after I got it, I did a fairly hard launch from the traffic lights in wet conditions. I didn't just mash the pedal rather I got the car...

I also am interested in hearing peoples recommendations.

Okay, good news... I had the centre muffler deleted yesterday. Quite happy with the results. Virtually no change to the sound at idle and cruising speed, but when you step on the gas it almost sounds...

R36 and CC share the same chassis, correct?
