Re: STOP!

Hi habksfor the reply, that's what I found online however I didn't get any of the additional message and it's cleared now and not come back presumably low pressure would be a constant if at fault?

Re: P0299 under boost fault

Thanks for the reply, the lever did feel fairly stiff however with the bank holiday my vacuum pump still hasn't arrived.

I'll test that when I can and take it from there

Re: Bumper cut out

Or failing that can you provide a part number which I could search , my car is the sport with twin tailpipes I've seen similar spoilers on eBay but they only have the single pipe gap on the left hand side not the larger cutout to accomodaye the twin exhaust tips

Bumper cut out

I am soon to be installing a westfalia detachable towbar however I'm trying to avoid having to buy the replacement spoiler from vw as this costs £118. Can anyone advise me of the size and position of the cutout which I could just re-create in my existing bumper spoiler?

Hope someone can advise me

Re: Alarm fault

So assuming wheel and arch liner need to be removed? Or can it be reached from above ? Or even perhaps can the cable be reached and I'll simply install it in a more accessible place for future?

Re: Swirl flap actuator

I'm awaiting to find out what warranty the garage are going to honour,

Is it usually advisable to change the actuator and inlet manifold and not just the actuator as yet I'm still unsure where the fault lies
