Looks like I will go for the Gunmetal with few pearl colors! It’s gonna be custom color.

Scirocco with 4WD is fantastic [emoji7] The car stability behavior changed completely and don’t know why VW didn’t produce Scirocco with AWD similar to Golf R!

No as Gateway have nothing to do with MFSW

To be clear - all new type MFSW use LIN 2.0
But - LIn 2.0 with 1K0 SWCM is not this same what 5K0 SWCM have
So if you have for example 1k0953549CH and you connect typical Golf 6 MFSW - all is working (code to LIN2.0)
but if you want to connect 1K8 scirocco MFSW (picture) then you need 5K0 SWCM

Or you can jump into MK7 MFSW with CCS, or new Caddy , T6, Amarok ...and use extra module
then you not care what MFSW you have, you just need 'converter"
Here is more info

Just very quick and good update :)
The ECU has been forced to code the AWD parameter and now the car works much much better. The car behavior changed.
Thanks for my brother Ussama who is always helping me in such stupid things [emoji23]

Sway bars advise.
————————-

I am comparing between the H&R and SuperPro sway bars.
Both will be same size; 24mm for front and 26mm for rear.
I will install them in my AWD Scirocco.
All opinions are more than welcome :)

H&R sway bars arrived and installed the rear one [emoji7]

The handling differences are noticeable once installed the rear sway bar and drive for a while, simply is like you were walking and slipping without wearing shoes and you wears the right shoes [emoji23]

The real problem I have is that the front sway bar came without the installation brackets so I have to remove it from the OEM bar and install it to the H&R one which I see something really bad! Any idea from where to buy the front sway brackets?

You should be able to get them directly from H&R - Drop them an E-mail, they should be able to post you some :yes:
