HELP!!! Big problem, need suggestions
I know this is the worng place but I figured I would try anyway. I installed a K04 last weekend and I got the right software yesterday and fixed the boost leak this morning on the FMIC. I was accelerating onto the highway and there was this huge clunk towards the rear end and the traction control light came on. The car is making a whistling noise and has almost no power. I pulled in the driveway and the car stalled (I don't have a manual) and when started will not stay on. When I was driveing it was shuddering and felt like a coilpack but no check engine light was on. IDK what this is but I need help fast. TIA

too many posibilities....
Crawl under your car first off and look.
You may have lost your rear drive shaft from the sound of it, or a half shaft to a rear wheel. But how can we know, just by the sound and result.
You need to VAG scan if you see nothing

im just throwing it out there, but the software sounds like the problem
even if you blew the axle, (and not sure what thats about), the car would start and stay lit.
The new software "sounds" like the culprit, but just a HUGE guess.
You need to vag it and see whats up.
