Re: Caddy maxi 2.0 tfsi swap
Very cool! What was the turnaround time on the conversion from when you dropped the van to Andy?

Re: Caddy maxi 2.0 tfsi swap
The turnaround time once all the parts and everything came in and it was ready for collection, including servicing, mot, test drive etc was about 3 weeks.
But I’d dropped the van off weeks before so it felt a lot longer lol

New suspension, bilstein b4 shocks, eibach front springs and rear lowering shackle kit, new top mounts, new drop links, polyurethane dog bone mount insert and a new set of wheels on the way as well.

Re: Caddy maxi 2.0 tfsi swap
That’s pretty swift to be honest! I’ll probably try and tackle mine myself, Is tempting to let someone else do it for the convenience howeverN_Caddy wrote:The turnaround time once all the parts and everything came in and it was ready for collection, including servicing, mot, test drive etc was about 3 weeks.

Re: Caddy maxi 2.0 tfsi swap
For the sake of what I’d paid for the parts and wanting do use it and do some proper miles in it and Andy is the only one I believe that puts warranty on his work.
It was a no brainer for me lol I’m great with MDF and shit with wiring

Re: Caddy maxi 2.0 tfsi swap
The wiring is always the daunting bit! Fully understand your decision. Luckily I have access to another vehicle so I can take my time on it. Looking forward to delving into some of the info on here and having a crack at it!
