No DMF wasn't replaced as it was ok, not seized and didn't have excessive play

Think it's about 280ft lbs

Morning all.. My AVF is remapped (roughly 170bhp) and my clutch is slipping again although it was only changed about 2500 miles ago, it's had a new genuine clutch and clutch master cylinder. So clearly I'm gonna need to upgrade the clutch. My question to you all is, has anyone tried fitting the v6 2...

155k for me on b5.5 avf 52 plate

Yea the seals have popped.. im only looking to put a second hand one on at the mo.. so if was to get one off a another tdi it 'should' be the same? Think im still gonna get under it and have a look at the one fitted

Can anyone tell me if b5.5 steering racks are the same for all engine codes or at least which ones are interchangeable. . I have a avf sport

Thanks

As toonmania said id demand your money back

I had already checked that pipe and found it to be a little loose in there, so I've clamped it and it has improved the brakes a little but it still does it every now and again.. As for the power loss, I'm gonna be looking into that today.. I'll let you know how I get on

Thanks for the reply karl

Hi all, the other day I started to get delayed boost (around 2.5k, car is remapped and usually comes in about 1500) intermittently, other times would be same as normal. Then the following day it would be at 2.5k or 3.5k!! Or not at all this was paired with poor brakes (hard pedal). I'm now at the po...

Spotted!! Black b6 lowered on black wheels.. On gorsty hill, Halesowen. Didn't think there was any other modded passats round here lol..

Anyway.. Looked nice.. I was in the b5.5 estate, think you seen me

Happy new year to you all.. Hope it's a pleasant one

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

Should hopefully cure, common problem the coil packs.. The lambda fault is probably only there due to the misfire, hope you sort it

I'd like to go back to the older stuff.. Corrado g60 would be nice but not practical with the nipper lol.. So a passat r36 would also be nice

Green

Does a decat improve the mpg then?

Haha... Brilliant!!!!

Yea that'll be fine, the lower et the further out the wheels sit, the higher the et the further in the wheels will sit in

Possibly battery/alternator issue, do you have access to a multi meter? Check the voltage of the battery with the engine off, you should have 12v then check again with it running you should have around 14v.. If not your alternator could be at fault.. Also the alternators are fitted with a one way cl...

Check your oil on your dipstick if it's thin and runny your tandem pump may be leaking fuel into your oil, and not feeding your injectors enough.. Hence the jumping

Worth a try, it's not uncommon for the tandem pumps to leak

I also have this problem.. It's still in the glovebox in pieces lol

This may come in useful to somebody else one day.. Just to let you all know I did sort this... To get the clutch master cylinder out the alloy pedal bracket has to be moved forward, removal isn't necessary. To do this there are four bolts, one is inside pointing up towards the dash above the clutch ...

Hi guys n gals.. I'm changing my clutch master cylinder on my b5.5 1.9tdi and I'm just wondering whether anyone else has had to do this?? I've got the thing undone, however it looks as though I'm going to have to remove the pedal box to get it out.. But it doesn't look that simple as 1 of the 3 bolt...

Cool.. Thanks guys

H all.. I've had a quick look through the search function but couldn't see nowt.. I have a b5.5 130 tdi and basically I wanna remove that massive centre box they have.. But for now I just want to stick a pipe in till I have a full system done.. So my question to you guys is, does anyone know the ang...
