    I finished building my VRT last year. It's a mk4 12v AFP motor using C2 42# tune and 42# injectors. Standard compression. The car has ran rough at idle ever since, it kind of sounds like it has a big cam in it. I have ran logs in VCDS and it seems to run very rich at Idle and very lean under boost. I was hoping the fuel trims would stabilize overtime but they continued to be just as bad and eventually led to a washed piston ring. The car has two known issues.

I search for hours looking for a solution and found nothing. What I ended up having to do was ripped out the plastic grill which revealed three bolts. I took out the three bolts which disconnected the hood mechanism from the rest of the car. Then the hood will lift upand you detach it manually and put it all back together and glue or replace your grill. That is the only way to fix it there is no way to get
