    Dave Turner from VW and Audi specialists is a race driver. He has in his possesion a mrk 4 tdi golf. It is tuned to a whopping 220bhp and over 400lb/ft. It is rapido maximus. It races along side him in the VW cup, it will piss over a vr6 anyday, there is also another tdi but in a mrk3 which is a friend of his, again running over 200bhp with massive torque figures. Look for allard tuning on the web, diesel tuners. Massive respect to diesels.

    cant seemed to get the pipes off of the idle valve!!

    funny i did that, new head gasket soon became new cylinder head because of bad corrosion, as well as all the other plug in bits such as valve guide rails, thermostat, water pump, oil pump etc... etc... engine front mount powersteering pipe, total of just shy of £2000

    lookin at head rebuild at 100k btw, vr6 heads are renown for corosion, an about 100k is the time to do it.

    ai, soon as the light comes on(which it never) there is still about 4litres in there. Basically the sensors told my ecu there was low oil but not that low to put the light or buzzer on. It resricted the revs just in case.

    £160 from where??
  22. madmonkee

    if ya have a freeflowing exhaust the torque band moves up even higher so it feels even slower!
  24. madmonkee
    does it give problems with ya wheels?? looked at the print out from the machine of wheel allignmentness, an it tells me that the "thrust" of the car is 0.02degrees so more or less smack on forwards. Camber, tracking and allignment of the rear is spoton. The front toe is slighty different but well within tolerances, the camber is -0.52degrees for the left(passenger)wheel and drivers is 0.03degrees 2 over the max limit. But was told its nothing to worry about. So there is a fair difference between the two wheels 0.5degrees so it could be that ?

    yet another problem.... after ive had my new exhaust and sports cat fitted, the car had a sudden drop in low end torque, but it was made up with a free'er top end so to speak. Now today i gave it some beans and instead of pissing up to 6000rpm in 3rd it got to 5000 and basically gave up, same for 4th?? Any ideas, its like a flat spot. Ok yesterday tho but today its fooked up big style is it mfa or lamba probe on exhaust?? dunno
