Hi all.
Having changed the aux belt tensioner due to some rather horrible noises, it looks like the actual problem is the crankshaft damper wheel. Where can I find a procedure for this as I assume...
Really hard to say but I guess around the 170bhp and around 400nm torque. Need to get on dyno for sure as I'm really curious. We think we can get a tad more but I don't want to break it. Well keep...
Get it done. I very nearly sold my car as it was not ticking the power box. Not now. The power delivery very different to the R. Comes in a bit later on mine due to auto but perfect for overtakes and...
Took my tdi over to Martin earlier today for general health check and a few more gee gees:). not happy that his original map was quite enough he set to work removing computer chips, reflashing new...
Thought you were going to say that you had been caught speeding sir.
Sorry Brian. I don't like them centres. Car still looks gorgeous though.
Sound good mate. Prancing wheel centres Seem a step to far..Lol. glad it's all going well. Some pics would be nice.
Looks great.Miss this car so much. At least it ids in good hands. Btw car has a100 cell cat fitted.
Looking good Brian
We're they really that bad? They had not been on the car that long??
Looking good there Martin. Can't wait to see the end results if there is such a thing as an end to a project!!!!
Is there a temperature difference between driver and passenger sides as you can tweek the cables on the heater box. You will know if the temp dial does not rotate from fully cold to fully hot.
Hi Martin no idea on injection quantity. I waslooking over the shoulder of Mike at lakes autos a1. I Nee to get acopy of vol fcr which I still need to speak with Frank's brother about. I must admit I...
Update to this. I have fired a replacement map sensor and a maf sensor. Not sure if it was one or both but as the parts were here I did it all in one. Performance now restored. Still not sure if my...
Hi there. Are you talking about the heat control or the direction control? I'm not aware of any difference in flow between driver and passenger windscreen.
There were several codes. Low boost pressure. Loss of signal and a maf code. The detail escapes me now. It all seemed to point to the map sensor. I'll stick another maf on tomorrow.
Hi Martin. The engine management issue kind of fixed itself. It turned out to be the boost pressure sensor. Unplugged it and plugged back in seem to help alot. The light put itself out after a few...
Had the new old tdi mot'd last week. Failed on rear brake efficiency. So new cable,New shoes,and pads and the old girl is good for the next12 months. While I was at it I replaced the heater fan and...
Could remove actuator vac pipe just to prove that ithas full boost available. Again this was something I did to prove a theory.
I had really low power when I first got my R. Would not boost at all. Changed all pipes relating to vacuum. Turned out to be a blocked cat. Exhaust was not allowing the turbo to spool up. Have you...
Did you get this sorted? Don't understand why it would just stop. I always dropped a bit of graphite grease on the latching mechanism at each service.
Welcome Brian,
Top man and I am really happy to pass my car to someone I know will really look after it. Absolutely top bloke for running me around Manchester last weekend.
Ill try and get that...
I tried plugging in my homemade blink coder which worked fine on the R, but does not work on this one? I also tried the torque app which connected to the car. Did not think this was possible,...

850 TDI with lots of T5R bits added. the car is lovely but has a engine management issue at the mo which needs sorting. Has T5R interior, V70 tailgate , brakelight and some...
Nice car mate.
I have spent a long time developing and testing the interior of these cars and they fair very well. Would look good withan altitude drop.
