Sounds like normal behaviour when you have the air conditioning running? Did you try it without the AC? Also maybe it uses humidity sensor to run fans longer after stop to try to dry system out a...

I just did my R front brakes, got these DBA bits from Automotive Superstore-
DBA2808S rotors (Street series T2 slotted)
DB2402SP pads (Street performance)
Price was not too bad (~$500), so far...
Ok, ancient thread update, but I finally had the SACHS SRE kit fitted last week!
I bought this kit in a group buy in 2014. I was dragging my feet about getting this done, living with the slipping...
All the switch hardware directly swaps over? Definitely looks a lot thicker than the old, that is for sure.
My post disappeared, I was about to edit it to put it more on topic earlier.
I can't believe how ratty the brakes looked on your PP after so few kms. You have tidied them up very nicely, how will...
I just replaced mine a few days ago too. ~August 2011 complianced Golf R, bought Jan 2012. The original battery only lasted 2 years, so back then I put an AGM Yankee made battery in (Federal AGM...
Sounds like there was a short circuit on the battery? I.e car electrical issue rather than battery, although i suppose a battery could fail internally to short if something from a plate broke off or...
I dug through my old posts, it was on vwgolf net au forum it was organised. For the pressure plate/clutch plate to use the standard dual mass flywheel, the kit was $870 and was this one here: Sachs...
It was a forum group buy arrangement, honestly can't remember the price ~$800 from vague memory. They came from Europe I believe.

Mine at 20000km... Got a Sachs ready to go in, just finding the time to get it booked somewhere is not easy. As soon as I bought the Manual R, I realised the stock clutch was never going to take a...
Some gutters have protruding metal plates where a drain part is to support the top concrete,I took a chunk out of my tyre on one of those trying to park mm from gutter..

You aren't a left foot braker by chance are you? Because the car will cut throttle if you bump the brake pedal while still on throttle, and it won't return until you let your foot go off throttle and...
Beauty, ordered, paid, now waiting :)
My stage 2 manual slipped a lot when gunning it onto a freeway, I.e the extra torque load in the higher gears (4,5 and even a bit in 3) would be too much for the stock clutch. I have a better clutch...
Milltek tips do bolt on so can be slid back a bit, but if you get bangs under the car over bumps cold (or hot) you can slide the whole rear section forward a bit to get some better clearance.
You...
Great grip, great rim protection, lots of threads comparing tyres in here and vwgolf that rate them highly.
Battery is probably nearly cactus though. I have done a few rns & Bluefin stg1 &stg2 flashes and it really took a toll on the battery. Battery only lasted 2 years. When it went, it went in a hurry....
Sounds like usual APR boasting. The numbers look a bit optimistic for a stage 1 (I presume this is engine numbers rather than at the wheels).
Could it be the dog bone mount has failed?
Probably more about just ensuring your forum identity can't be matched to your real identity, which hiding the number plates go a long way towards achieving, esp if VAG are reading the forums to...
I put the Eagle F1 Assym2 on the front of my R about 2 weeks ago, very impressive grip! (225/40R18" 92Y rated). Bob Jane don't carry them but were happy to bring in fitted at $250ea (I told them I...
I would have suggested that but Lucas is pretty clued up in that area since he has mounted his own DP numerous times and clearance issues are quite a challenge to get right with the manual selector...
Yes, but as it is cool inside the system, when you turn off the car, the cool interior surface of the air con assembly draws in moisture, which sits for quite a while and a perfect environment to...
Yep, that'l do it...cheap LED? Maybe poke a cable tie with a bit of chewy or something sticky on the end to catch it after removing the main globe to get in there easier?
Just plug it with a bit of hose connected& large screw wedged into the end of the hose, use good cable ties or get hose clamps. (I say large as you don't want something small enough to get sucked...
