In my opinion if you can feel air the leak is not big enough to make an impression.

If you replace the o ring it should stop the oil seeping out though!!

Who wired it up?? You or a "mechanic"?

If you close the butterfly you feed the engine with only exhaust gas so it should be killing the engine. As long as the bolts are tight there should not be any leak of air there. If the engine is on is the any air escaping you can feel with your hand? When I did mine i took off the inlet manifold to...

It is the black cap behind the dipstick:



As Smithy said very easy access!!

My brother bought a phatsat last Monday and as soon as he drove away from the estate where the guy lives the lights came on. Checked up on here and he bought a Brake Light Switch for a tenner of ebay. I fitted it for him on Wednesday and immidetately fixed the problem. 90% this will fix your problem...

As far as I am aware there is not but are you looking for help with it?? It is dead easy. Jack up the car after a bit of a drive to warm the engine. Open the cap to put oil in, undo the bolt to drain the oil out. Let the car sit a while and while it is sitting, undone the cap for the oil filter. Tak...

You are correct! Some items are not usable for the ukpas25 and there's a minimum spend £25 I think. I just tried to get pas pump and timing kit with no discount. Have you tried carparts4less? Although no discount there most parts are same price with our discount at ECP. carparts 4 less looks exact...

Has anyone else noticed that the EPC code is no longer working?? I have tried to get something this evening but the code is either expired or nonexistant. Anybody any ideas when it will be up and running again?

Even if the Climatronic is at the top 6 disc should fit in too.

i seen a guy who had fitted his changer into the arm rest hole, that also the same size.

These are a great job. My wife from is from Poland and nearly 50% of cars have them over there.

I was borrowing her dad's 'sat and it saved me a few times from the teddy bears hair-dryers.

Would install it here in my passat but not enough people have them for any real use.

Is there a way to remove the radio without the proper keys?

I cut up a CD into two strips and it worked well for me!!

Great how to, I will be trying it on Saturday as I am waiting for my 3.5mm Connectors coming from Ski bay.

Only could get a pack of ten though so will be having eight or nine if anyone wants them. Just PM and I will throw it in the post for you!

Just done it tonight. Installed Motordiag and fought for about an hour and a half to try and get the cable driver to install and to get the Motordiag and VAG-COM Lite to recognize the cable. When the cable finally did install I had to change the COM Port from 11 to either 1,2,3 or 4. To change it yo...

I have had this problem for the last two weeks now but I have had to fight with it nearly everyday as the pressure just seems to blow the cable ties off each time.

Me thinks maybe it is my lead foot??

A few weeks ago I had heard the all to familiar noise of air hissing as I put my lead foot down. Nevertheless I kept driving and after a day or two I heard a loud pop and started to see a lot of black smoke. I knew what was up, the intercooler hose I replaced nine months ago had blown out of its hou...

Dude this probably a thremostat. Dead easy to change actually did mine on Saturday any only took 20 min. But eithernbe quick or have some new antifreeze ready. I was neither so am hoping it dosent freeze in the next few days. Will he changing the water forbantifreeze on Sat again.

Sori mate......but wont u feel like u gone from a stallion to a mule?

Have you tried pressing the button on the door pillar before you get out and lock the car? It is to turn the sensors internally off but maybe thats the problem? You just need to do that everytime you get out to lock the car.

Cool thanks for that. Gota service at the weekend anyways so will be doin that at the same time.

If you have a VAG-COM lead download the motordiag program and register it then you will be able to remotely open your windows.

Does this mean closeing the windows while locking the car?

Yeah its "ukpas25" but only works on orders over 20quid but fair enough me thinks. Happy shopping

Dude you got a major boost leak. As was said probably the hose coming from the turbo to the metal pipe in the bumper. I have the same problem in mine but habvent got it fixed as yet, still looking for the part. Either deadly expensive or deadly to find. What I would suggest is take off the huge rubb...

my dad had a old renault savanna that ran quite happily on veg oil in the 90's but how would the AVF engine fare? I am driving 500+miles weekly so would be a great help to the old pocket money but dont want to fork later in the year on bust injectors or pump. My bro in law told me he ran his old ast...
