Default Just finished my a4 to m6 swap!! Have some ??s

I just finished my t56 conversion tonight and I have some questions.

1. I am still running on the a4 tune and my appt is in 3 days for reflash, is it all right to drive the car for the next 3 days with the a4 tune. I am in the clutch break in period so i am going to be driving the car real nice and easy.

2. My tcs off light is on and I can not use my tcs switch to operate. anyone had tis problem?

anything else i should know or should look for right after doing the swap?


The car shifts awesome and everything was replaced with all new parts
ended up costing me a little more but now that its done it is all worth it.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks Guys

yeah it's fine to drive the car, but just don't get on it at all til it's tuned right. I've heard of guys having problems with the tcs but I don't even have it so I don't know much about it. You can try going through the sticky if you haven't already.

I drove my car for awhile without it being flashed over. Had to figure out how fast i was going by looking at the tach which was a little annoying but oh well. Once you get a tune your traction control will work but your cruise prolly wont. At least it still doesnt work for me. Other than that just check the usual stuff, leaks and basic things. If something were really wrong it would probably have broke by now or be making alot of noise. Congrats on the swap. Im sure it was as fun for you as it was for me when i did it.
