Clogged cats are difficult to judge by looking alone…great to hear your car is running issie free…I would still keep an eys out…I think the exhaust is making the car run better…I would still keep an eye out…
When a reset my ecu…it takes a second for the jhm tune to readapt too…that makes sence that after driving the car is running better…
Those seats are crazy…Ths seats…exhaust… tune working good…that has to be a total transformation…
Those seats look amazing!

I Cleared them, and the same DTC code came up, no check engine light, drove the car for a couple hours after that and can say I haven’t heard any pinging, Monday me and Jeff are going to go for a boot and do some logs.
I was shocked by the amount of people giving me the thumbs up, and signaling me to roll my windows down, to ask me questions “the car sounds fantastic/amazing” was usually the first words they said! LoL
After the headaches with the ping, the car was more of a burden then anything, if I did have to drive I was scared to hurt it… Although I can honestly say after driving around today the excitement about the car is back! And I’m Soooo very excited to start Project: Pandora, which btw i think is a very fitting name 
Hope everyone is having a good Sunday evening!
Those seats… :o
I was thinking that about the cats? I kind of had a picture in my mind that I’d take off the downpipe and see a big piece of gunk there. They looked normal although the drivers side did seem to weigh alittle more. I will definitely be keeping an eye on her, I will know more once I get the manifold off.
I figured that about the tune, something both Dru and Jake had said to me the first couple hours after the flash it’s setting it’s self up So to speak.
Chris the excitement of owning an RS4 is definitely back! It was really nice to get the car out and just drive!
COuld have just been bad gas.
This pinging issue…is this an old issue or a new issue? You mentioned it was a headache? I can’t remember.
You shoudl try to run 93 or 94 if you can. The 91 tune is good for high 90s…i.e. it will make gains going from 91 to 93…or from 91 to 94.
This is the same ping I’ve had all along, was coming from the driver side, been a headache cause I’ve been thinking about it this whole time, finally getting the exhaust on and driving the car kinda relieves that headache/stress I should say.
Only fill up with chevron 94, if I can’t get that I’ll run shell 91, both newer gas stations.
After clearing the codes I just cruised around town running some errands, no chek light came up, heading out to a friends I had a buddy following, gave it good 2-3-4 on the on ramp, and had the chek light come back on. I got a feeling it’s the O2 again, I’ll scan it tomorrow once I get to the shop.
Wow awesome seats!
Those seats look amazing!

Ordered a couple 02 sensors, but also having some codes pop up from the seats, and wanted to see if we had any vagcom guru’s over here?
Codes:
4 Faults Found:
00591 - Seat Belt Switch; Driver (E24)
007 - Short to Ground - MIL ON
00592 - Seat Belt Switch; Passenger (E25)
010 - Open or Short to Plus - MIL ON
01579 - Signal for Seat Occupied Sensor; Front Passenger Side (G128)
010 - Open or Short to Plus - MIL ON
01213 - Belt Tensioner Igniter; Rear Middle (N198)
001 - Upper Limit Exceeded - MIL ON
3 of the 4 issues are fairly easy to fix, would just be me swapping the buckles over from the stock set. The other fault is for a pressure plate/switch, after some research, and talking with Luke@plushautomotive, I’ve found that the bucket seats never came with pressure plates/switch and that the car is actually coded differently in Europe to take the airbag sensor from the belt input, rather then having weight on the seat.
Vag-com wiki;
0?3xxxx: Battery Seperating
0 = without Battery Seperating
4 = with Battery Seperating (4.2l V8 only / PR-TK7)
0x3?xxx: Options'
0 = with/without Belt Warning (PR-4UE+9P0/9P1)
1 = Passenger Airbag with Key Switch / Belt Warning (PR-4UE+9P0/9P1)
2 = Passenger Airbag with Seat Occupation Detection / Belt Warning (PR-4UB+9P5)
3 = with Belt Warning (PR-4UE+9P3) OR Passenger Airbag with Seat Occupation Detection / Belt Warning (PR-4UB+9P3)
4 = Passenger Airbag with Key Switch / Belt Warning (PR-4UF+9P3)
0x3x?xx: Side Airbags
6 = Front Side Airbags with Head Airbags (PR-4X3)
7 = Front & Rear Side Airbags with Head Airbags (PR-4X4)
0x3xx?x: Belt Inquiry
0 = North America (USA/Canada) OR Rest of World (RoW): without Belt Inquiry (PR-9P0)
1 = Rest of World (RoW): Belt Inquiry Driver's Side (PR-9P1)
2 = Rest of World (RoW): Belt Inquiry Driver's & Passenger Side (PR-9P3)
0x3xxx?: Belt Tensioner
2 = Rest of World (RoW): Front Belt Tensioner
2 = Rest of World (RoW) & Belt Inquiry (PR-9P1): Front & Rear Belt Tensioner
7 = Rest of World (RoW) & Belt Inquiry (PR-9P0/9P3): Front & Rear Belt Tensioner
7 = North America (USA/Canada)
I still need to pull the codes from my car, as I just found this info last night, but coding on my car is more then likely 0433627. From the list above, if I change the values from 0xx3xx7, to 0xx1xx2. This would tell the car it’s now looking for eurospec, and to not use the airbag signal from the pressure switch, rather get the input from the belt buckle. Also by putting the car into RoW, rather then North America/Canada, that would technically get rid of rear ignitor light? This is all theory in my head, but wanted to see if there are any vag-com guru’s that could lend a hand! Going to hook up the com this weekend and play with the coding before I yank the seats to swap the buckles over.
Many thanks in advance!
Start a thread on rs246 maybe. Those guys switch the seats a lot over there.
There’s maybe 6 guys with those seats in all of the US…and there are probably 60 on rs246 who have done the swap.
Theoretically yes but vagcom does not always like to take those codes. FT has euro seats, maybe he would be helpful. I guess you could also just put in a resister to trick the car right?
I was thinking about that, although most of the info I did find was from digging through rs246, SRS, and Edition38, just wanted to see if anyone has played with vagcom enough to know, if it would take to the change in settings. I’ll play with it this weekend and worst case start a thread over there.
See thats what i was thinking, I did get in touch with FT, and to be honest he wasn’t to much help, he told me what I had already known with the swap, as for his setup he swapped stock buckles over, and had the pressure plate swapped to the seats when he had the Recaro’s wrapped, he just referenced Nicks car blog, and to work through the codes in vagcom, he also told me to pull the covers back and to check for plates, but on the buckets its quite a bit of work to actually be able to pull the bottom covers up. not to sure if he realizes that? you actualy have to take the backs off and almost strip the whole seat down to get them off.
I still appreciate the info he did give, just unfortunately it didn’t help me out.
as for a resistor, that is an option but i would have no idea of what resistance to put in?
