Re: Max load on a GTi (BZ) cigarette socket

They are typically fused at 20 or 25A. The load of a dashcam is very low, I think it will be perfectly fine.

Fun fact, the Porsche Macan came with a 2.0T inline-4 engine from the EA888 series, the CYN and DKN engines.

Just some Pythagoras on the Haldex Gen 5 0CQ vs the 08E torque vectoring, and why you need a 55mm spacer on your cardan shaft.
I measured diagonal and offset, calculated the length.

Re: Extreme Oil leak, what is the cause?

there will be a small pipe coming from the air intake hose from the air filter, going to the turbocharger. that pipe is connected to a small valve in the head. the pcv valve. that sometimes breaks off, making a mess of that area too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tULZemPDyjA&ab_channel=KrystianDEPL ...

The new rear differential in place :mrgreen: Drive shaft is 3 cm short though :lol: :lol:
I'll resolve it with an Arteon prop shaft probably, now it's a double hardi disc.

i think you should pretty much take everything from pq25 to make it work, i don't think a lot is backward compatible.
so bcm, tacho, climate control, airbag, ecu etc...
