Some may not like the Remus Duplex system, but in real life it shows better with the carbon wing.

Changed a few stuff aswell

Did front and Rear shocks with front top shock mounts

Slight update.

Sent the car in last week to do some preventative maintenance after coming back from honeymoon.

Did the Cam Chain Service.
Chain did have slight stretch and some bridge piece was already busy collapsing so was brought in right time...

All together

Have only done +- 120km on it now

How much did they charge? Did you do it at a VW garage?

Mine is a 2009 model currently at 73 xxx km's so I'm thinking of letting it run to 100k km's and then replacing it as it's a €2k+ job?

I did it with a guy that worked for VW opened his own shop and used the cars after market warranty, so they paid most and price was about +-€1200

Ill be doing my alternator pulley with tensioner this week, they replaced the V-Belt - not sure why they didnt do the pulley and tensioner same time...

Took my car back, as they never replaced my lower timing chain cover, and there was a bit of sweat under the car so the oil pan was resealed and the new riming chain cover installed, also had to replace a faulty new timing chain tensioner :skit: finding that a bit odd.

But new one is in...

Also decided to do some carbon cleaning.
