Build start
So I brought a caddy 9 months ago its a 1 6 tdi dsg 2013 . Had it a week.. had to replace injector under warranty. Week later kept hearing a rattle on cold start took to garage they said it was auxiliary belt had that changed . Next morning heard again so thought I would just look myself I could tell it was coming from gearbox so took back to garage 3 weeks later and 2k down got it back . And it's been sweet since

Re: Build start
So after a lot of research I got a remap done by jabbasport and what a difference it has made so much better to drive but it highlighted the poor handling so I had to start research on a lowering kit .....

After having it back a while the sportline wheels just didn't look right so on to picking a set that suited me this took some time but I got there in the end
