flash red, best colour lol ;)

tbh the fusions dont sound much better than standard, i wouldnt reccomend them as an upgrade. the only reason i changed them is because i blew one!!

the infinty components in the front on the other hand sound amazing!

oh and i have been looking around for an aero wiper so if anyone has one going cheap??

Whats your exact vag com fault code? I had kind of the same thing... P0170 Fuel Trim Bank 1 ??

I take it that its intermittent? as if you reset it through vag com, then the fault would take a while to come back?

What i did was the following: took out lambada, washed in meths, gave it a knock, got some scotchbrite and cleaned it. put it back in got some electrical contact cleaner and cleaned the plug connections, and it hasnt hassled me since!

remember its a resistive or capacitive electrical signal the probe gives so a more resistive connection can cock it up. i would check your wiring loom too.

If the cars ever been overfilled with oil, that can lead to your TB getting clogged up with sticky crap, its an easy removal, degrease and pop back in, polish it whilst your at it and your notice a difference.

I looked in to this thoroughly before i solved it, did loads of things, if these dont work then let me know and ill tell you a load more crap!
