Re: Cold air intakes

Ive had mine fitted for about 6 months now and no problem at all, and if it was a problem with the oil from the foam going back then with would be the same for all the CAIs as they all have a similar setup

Re: No Alarm Sound

if its the same as some of the older models of VAG, the alarm has an internal battery that has a tendancy to fail and leak internally, i have seen a guide for removing, dismantling and replacing the battery with a more reliable one, but most people i saw opted to replace the unit
