B6PTY

I just installed a wetterauer chip, but the car is "as I being told" pinging (a low tlink..tlink..noise as i accelerate)

I know that some recommendations are change plugs, higher octane fuel (i use 95)... etc, anything else?

have anybody with this same chip have runned into this problem?

Thanks,

Pingin is a another word for Knock or DETONATION the 1.8T is designed to adjust itself for Ping/Knock, subject to the fuel and demands you are making of the engine. If you are just now hearing the PING and you have changed gas to a 93 oct... assuming the chip is designed for 91-93.. then GET THE CHIP OUT..


As an allroader.. I was contacted by Wett. to be a tester of their latest chip. Upon LOTS of research I found that their tuning was not up to APR/GIAC standards.

I also asked them:
"If I'm testing you chip and I have a problem with the engine.. will you take responsability and repair things.?"

They said no... so I did not put their chip in,

It could be that you have build up on the piston causing your CR to be higher.

Had to switch since Wett didn't have a fix. Call the folks at Wett up, they are nice enough, and they'll give you the straight poop.

Shameless in Chicago

I have Wett chip. Never had an issue in 50K.
