I can whip around corners even better now, and take off easier when at a lower speed. Plus the v2.4 APR Stage 1 update...it's crazy how much more oomph there is when going 65mph and you floor it. There used to be so much lag. ALSO, Sport mode is...fixed! There's no more clunkyness. The car brakes like normal as if driving in D. You used to feel very harsh gear changes when braking in Sport mode. I also noticed there's no random tiny RPM spikes when idle that there used to be.

Posting videos of before and after carbon cleaning shortly.

I highly recommend anyone who has a Stage 1 APR tune to get the free update to 2.4. Even if you're at 1.0 or 2.1.

According to APR, they fixed the following: https://www.goapr.com/news/2016/12/13/v ... 888-gen-1/

- DSG / Tip Tronic shift quality
- Reduced startup engine roughness
- Reduced idle RPM fluctuations
- Increased engine braking
- Tighter boost control, reducing unintended oscillations
- Increased horsepower and torque limits in 5th and 6th gear
- Improved throttle mapping
- Improved manual transmission throttle feel at take-off and low speeds
- Addressed Tip Tronic support tickets

Did a bit more research. Sears has a deal right now for the same tires, being sold at $124.19 per tire! I called VW and see if they can price match. If they can, just gonna have the work done there. They have to call me back.

Sears even has free installation if you buy four tires, but scheduling that would be a pain...don't even know if I trust them doing that.

Good call. They just might price match.

Hey, can you post the video here of your cleaned valves?

Do all direct injection vehicles need carbon cleaning? Sandblasting?
