turbo fail and buyback

so my JSW had 189,600 miles on it and i was gonna hold out the entire two years i could but my turbo went bad the other day and i finally had enough. it could be something as minor as a frayed wire not giving it a signal but i finally had enough dealing with broken stuff on this car. the offer is for 11,800. i have provided all the docs and got my offer letter and then had it notarized. i submitted that but how long did the process take you guys after that step?

turbo fail and buyback

1999 Golf TDI GLS, Manual, Malone Stage 5, British Columbia

Location: Comox Valley, BC (Close to Vancouver, BC) (map here)
Price: $3000 CAD ($2300 US for our American friends!)
Mileage: 464140kms (290088 miles)
Transmission: 5-speed
Interior: Leather
Exterior: Dark Green

The time has come to put my beloved TDI up for sale.

Currently has 464xxxkms (photo shows 161140 as the LCD misbehaves) (290xxx miles)

The good (go-fast mods done by PO):

• Engine refreshed @ 390k (bearings, rings, seals, etc.) w/ full timing belt job by PO
• ARP Headstuds
• Custom intake manifold
• 3bar MAP
• Kerma OMI
• Malone Stage 5 w/ Dynamic Idle
• VNT 17/22
• .250 HFLO-x nozzles
• EGR Delete
• FMIC
• Buzzken full turboback exhaust with res & muffler
• Single mass VR6 clutch
• Jeffmod HID Projector headlights w/ fogs and euro switch (removed Relay 179 as DRL's were misbehaving)
• Fluidampr (upgraded harmonic balancer)
• OEM Westfalia tow hitch (with 12v light adapter)
• Frostheater
• Leather heated seats
• Golf City radio (with radio code!)
• Shocks/struts recently replaced all-around
• New vacuum pump and vacuum lines
• New alternator
• Front ball joints and tie rods recently replaced
• New battery
• Stud conversion with nuts (two sets, one for aftermarkte rims, and one for OEM rims)
• 17" Konigs w/ Contintenal Purecontact (~47k)
• Rotors and pads recently replaced

The bad:

• Rust, rust and more rust. Having lived on the East Coast most her life (and being neglected by PO's...) she hasn't aged very well. Thus, the chances of getting her registered in BC are slim-to-none without some bodywork.
• ~2ft long crack in windshield on driver side, does not hinder vision.
• Brake booster is shot.
• No A/C (PO cut off power wires to compressor and it wasn't hot enough for me to worry about it)
• Lower boost pipe rubs on axle (connector going from turbo -> aluminum piping needs to be redone...backyard half-ass work is great)
• Lower boost pipe no longer stays connected to turbo (2-3 psi and she pops right off)
• Glow plug light is on -> brake switch (could possibly be connected to brake booster) is faulty and doesn't allow cruise control
• Shifting is mediocre at best (was retrofitted with 2nd gen MK4 shifting box, but needs adjustment/bushings)
• PO had it lowered previously and had it frame notched...the notch was done properly albeit my strong aversion to this kind of shenanigans...

She's had a bunch of things done during my ownership (I bought her Oct 2013 @ 406k) to fix some of the shenanigans of the PO, and also make her safe and enjoyable to drive, but I'm done sinking money so it's time for her to go to someone else who's willing to give her the TLC she deserves. Yes, she is driveable, but has no boost due to the lower boost pipe.

I've kept a log of my repairs that can be found here.

Also have extra filters for her since I won't be needing them anymore.

The car is currently in Comox as that's where I work (plated/insured Nova Scotia as I recently moved here).

FRONT END BUMPER COVER (Bra)

I have a 2015 Golf Sportwagen and unsure if I should buy a front end nose cover (bra) type to protect the front bumper and hood or try the new technology 3m tape on the front? I would greatly appreciate any advice or recommendations. I am also from the northeast, where it snows.
Thank you

Plate frame

Today I received my tdiclub.com brushed aluminum plate frame, and it looks awesome on my silk blue gsw.

Looking to put a vintage VW frame on the front. Any ideas???

Another ALH swap wiring question

I'm not looking to have the most efficient harness out there but I would like a functional OBD port.

If I send the ECU off and have the immo delete do I NEED to remove anything?
