Whatever you drive, someone here has already modified it.
Find mods for your exact car, follow projects in progress, and post what you did so the
next owner isn't guessing. From a first lift kit to a full EV conversion.
Fixed sagging headliner courtesy of 20 year old glue. Dropping the headliner wasn't incredibly difficult except for around the sunroof retaining trim. Using the right glue is critical for this, I used 3M Super 77.
Q7 HVAC stops working in 90 weather. I think the car is getting too hot by having a black exterior, interior, and headliner. Need to get tint and a wrap to hopefully cool car down
Very easy swap if you have all of the necessary hardware, custom drive shaft and machined bell housing. The factory L series bellhousing is reused and is machined declared over the KA24 gearbox.
ABS Module fault recorded in VCDS, and associated modules noting that the ABS Module could not be communicated with. Cross referenced the wiring diagrams for the footwell splices and checked continuity + CAN signal. Ended up tracing CAN Signal and ground all the way to the ABS Module, discovered module faulty. Brake fluid was also present in the connector. Removal and replacement involves pulling the wiper cowl, removing one ECU (the master), and the cabin air intake, in addition to a full brake bleed. Make sure you follow the VCDS output tests to properly bleed the front brakes, and re-code your new ABS module accordingly for proper communication.
Since my truck has a rear window defroster, the wiring is already present to add heated mirrors. Just needed to purchase some XLT heated mirrors and install.
