Just to close this off for people.
It seems that the duty cycle (group 91, block 2) controls the oil flow in the solenoid to keep the timing in check
less than 50% retards timing more than 50% advances 50% locks the timing without adjustment
So a good result for me here.

Glad to hear, thanks for both of your input.
Yeah I'#039ve heard that the solid dogbone ads a lot of NVH, that'#039s why I'#039ve put it as a last resort solution.

I had the chance to drive both a stock and modded Mk7 Golf R, and yeah, it’s a noticeable upgrade from the Mk5. Even stock, the Mk7 feels more refined and quicker off the line.

They'#039re Genuine VW, I don'#039t know if cars came with them of the showroom floor, I expect not as German car manufacturers don'#039t give much for free. Also there are 2 types of mat fixings oval or round so get the correct type for your car.
