    Bearing typically growls at higher speeds, especially when applying load to it (turning right in your case).

    Driver side is easy & straightforward.
    Passenger side is a bit tricky, but definitely doable.

    Your mechanic just doesn't want to deal with it.

    Unrelated to DRC.
    Low on fluid or something else amiss (bad ABS module?).
    Check fluid & scan for codes.

    Steve, correction: there actually is an afterrun pump in both configurations. Just two different flow directions. "Early style" just ties into the "normal water feed", thus doesn't really aftercool...

    Hi Ivan.

    That's the difference between early and late styles.
    Early style has aftercooling plumbed away from rad.
    Later style has aftercooling plumbed via the electrically controlled "flow...

    Also, you have A LOT of vacuum in the charge pipe (!!!) under WOT.
    Forgot rags in the intake piping or something?

    There are little to none "idiot checks" with the CPS. It can behave like you're describing when the sensor is giving erratic readings.

    Slightly off topic, but:
    I just had aftermarket S6 radiator fitted. Nissens brand, part number 60424, super cheap (like $200). VAG OEM part number 4B3121251D.
    It's a direct drop-in replacement to...

    That's exactly what I meant.
    Hitting L2 monitoring thresholds makes the ECU either reboot or go limp mode with no power (EPC, but no DTC).

    ESP might indicate some load measuring issues (MAF...

    Definitely a tune issue.
    Possibly hitting torque monitoring thresholds. "No DTC" is a nice indication of that.

    "AC control unit" is the thing with buttons in your center console, not the fan control module you're speaking of.

    Slightly unequal MAFs are normal, that's due to the difference in WG actuators.

    You don't have to remove the seat. TCM most likely had taken a swim. Take it out, have a look.

    I believe S6 ones should have a different part number. Was more of a "general advice for future readers" if they don't verify part numbers. When buying a used part advertised as RS6 for example.

    Make sure you get RS6. S6 also came with HID (optional?), but the projector is smaller.

    Bear in mind, you want any water (condensation) being able to naturally drain from the sensor.
    So don't install it horizontally or facing upwards.
