I have just tried to trade my car in and shocked how little it is worth...

Time to get in touch with the lawyers - no win no fee it is then...

Putting a rear camera in is really really easy!

Putting a rear camera in is really really easy!

Fixed - All sorted - it was the actuator - Thanks Chris

Not sure if its the same but... I had a mk5 golf tdi and did exactly the same - it had to be re-aligned...

I thought my clutch/gearbox had gone - once I did this it was perfect again - its worth a try!

Thanks - expert is booked to do the job tomorrow thanks

This is the amp I have - it fits perfectly http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLI-FL900-FOUR-4-CHANNEL-CAR-AMPLIFIER-900-WATTS-SPEAKER-AMP-BY-VIBE-BRAND-NEW-/262119452250?hash=item3d07896e5a:g:u-4AAOSw9N1VkWga It sounds really good too! - was very shocked how good to be honest - very powerful especially for ...

I have a tiny Fli 4 channel amp on the floor under the passenger seat - it fits neatly upto the mat

Will try and get a photo tomorrow... It sounds amazing - really makes a difference - worth doing

Seen the part I think I need on EBay from Darkside for £100 delivered... Will see how much the stealers want

Thanks - fingers crossed mine will be sorted this week

Never had so much trouble with a VW... but what else these days is better?

How much was the actuator and where did you have it done?

I have an expert ready to work on mine ;)

Read the code : P20299 - turbo underboosts

Sounds like its the actuator from what i have read - anyone had any thing similar?

True -

I have a feeling its turbo related as the lack of power is when the turbo would kick in... possibly the actuator - have read it can fail on these KKK turbos

Just got home after my car has gone into limp home mode - no power and flashing coil light - its stopped flashing now but it has no power...

Can't get the car looked at until monday and I have loads of driving to do next week!!

Anyone have a clue of what could cause this - I don't have VAGCOM...

I know how to indicate so will never own a BMW...

Ok Audi A4 it is then!...

Is the new A4 available yet (the new platform version)?

The 2016 spec A4 I think is the new platform -

always wanted an audi but not sure if its the best choice!

Fingers crossed will be moving jobs soon and my new job comes with a company car or allowance... I have a choice to make... B8 Passat (possibly estate) or Audi A4 (avant possibly also) - so my question is this what car is the best? Always wanted an Audi but is the new Passat B8 better than the new a4?

Does anyone know when these engines where fitted?

800-850 miles on a brimmed 70L tank - 2.0tdi CR 140 2009 B6

I have never seen less than 55mpg with mine - using sainsburys cheap fuel and mixed journeys!

If you get a 2008/9 140BHP CR engine they are alot better - I have had mine for 18 months and had no real issues (aircon fault but easy fix)
Plus my passat does 60mpg which is alot better than the older engines

I don't think anyone has any idea yet - I am personally going to ignore the recall if I can get away with it - I really don't want my car effected... only time will tell ...

it is not big enough to give decent bass in a car... don't waste your time

Just had my letter from VW arrive confirming my cars involvement in all this nonsense...
