Default VAG...Adapation....Channel 01....Stock = 128...Max = 138...Dealer raised mine to 134 to avoid....

misfires at idle. Bastards are trying to band-aid fix the underlying problem. Have to keep troubleshooting my misfire issue.

I forget what rpm these numbers actually correspond too...I think 128 (stock) is 760-800 and 138 is 960 or something.

Your #s sound right. I always see it going between 760 and 800 when logging.

Yeah, I notice that too. I guess it's just too hard to keep an engine at an exact rpm.

Default You mean you basically maximize the chance for misfires in order to see if they are starting...

to occur? Interesting. What have you found?
