    Anyone on the comments or if you know info on the sensors for the keyless entry? I keep getting that alert and was told that it is sensors around the car that it can be missing. And also a question about my front bumper. It is an autobahn and I read that the front bumper for that needs to be precise or else front head lights don't work. And yeah headlights don't work properly. Well the daytime running light doesn't work properly. Thanks,

    I did it on my MK8. Drop-in filter and snow guard removal. You get some more sound but nothing major. I honestly think it’ll work better than an open intake because it won’t be as prone to heat soak

    **usually the way i tell which wheel it is for sure is when turning, harder the better too usually.. if turning left if its the left wheel bearing it will get quiet because the load is taken off that wheel and the force put on the outer wheel.. so if turning right, the force goes on the left wheel, which will usually make the left bearing have more stress on it and be louder but the rt wheel has less stress on it and if that is the one that is bad it will quiet up while turning rt..
