Im new here but I'm pretty clues up with my VW's but the names you guys come out with has baffled me!
Only a few if you'd be so kind! And please if there are some I've missed please help  :signLOL:
Highline dash?-to me this means passat!
Hfpf-(is that the correct name?) I don't have a scooby what this means
Gateway-canbus?
Rns-radio?
Twintercooler-a double front mount intercooler :ashamed:

Lol I keep reading threads and pretending I know what your talking about but the truth is I dont!

Twintercooler= an extra intercooler in addition to your standard one, made by forge motorsport

Highline and canbus/gateway have been covered extensively in threads.

Best thing is to keep reading. Also, search for threads and have a read eg search for twintercooler but tick topic titles to limit the searches to threads with the search subject in the title. Makes it more manageable.

There's lots of useful info but you have to put the effort in to find it. Stick around for a bit longer, have a read of members' rides threads and it'll come together.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

As a tech at Listers I'm quite worried you don't know what these terms mean!! I thought Terry was pretty good at his training for his staff!
