  2. i cant afford a bmc kit so im getting a pipercross induction kit its costing me
  3. is there anyone near maidenhead who has one or how much does vw charge to do it?
  4. thx peeps i just got home and recorded the noise on my phone but it sounds 10 times worse infact you could mistake it for a tractor
  5. any guesses why i can hear the crank then.
  6. hmm didnt look but normally it does when it did it i didnt think to look just thought wtf sounded verry loud for 2-3 secs i think its time to sell and go back to a mk2 i think.
  7. one other thing is the aux water pump supposed to run after the engine is switched off because mine runs for quite a while.
  8. right the noise doesent worsen when the steering is turned just as soon as you start it you hear the noise then it wears off as for the crank noise this is the first time i heard it why would it do it.?
  9. would the oil in it cause noise at startup i recently topped it up with castrol gtx magnetech it was on the minimum line on the dipstick.
  10. i havent opend the bonnet when it does this but its coming from the engine bay also a new noise today sounded like the crank at startup verry noisy for a few seconds are these engines made of chocolate
  11. like a straining noise cant really explain too well but will try it only lasts 10 seconds or so but just wondering what it is try to imagine a belt too tight or water being pushed through a small hose too fast sorry cant really think of a better explanation.
  12. mines got 114k got it welded properly now they shouldent make shitty parts
  13. hmmm got it welded i just used the old plastic clip but the pedal seems sticky when depressed maby its me but im sure it didnt feel like that b4.
  14. whats causing it to happen is it normal to make a bit of sound when cold?
